How do you calculate a parrot's age in human years?
It depends on the species. We map maturity to about 18 human years and typical lifespan to about 80. Pick the size group that matches your bird.
How long do parrots live?
Small parrots like budgies live 10–15 years, medium species 15–25, and large parrots such as African greys and macaws 40–60+ years.
Why does parrot size matter?
A budgie and a macaw have completely different lifespans, so the same age means very different things. Choosing the size gives a more realistic estimate.
Is this parrot age formula accurate?
It's a friendly approximation based on maturity and lifespan — there is no official peer-reviewed parrot-to-human formula.
