• Try to select a different main color. Characteristics of male and female parakeets can easily be distinguished after 4 months of age. Males have a characteristic blue color at the top of his nostrils. If the color in that part of a dirty white, beige or brown, it stands to reason that female gender.
• Choose the look is appropriate with their partner because it's easier to breeding.
• Adjust the size of the cage with the number of couples that are not too crowded so the result is less good for the health of birds including the damage in terms of enjoying it. 'Private House' which is generally made from cotton wood shaped into a box provided for each pair of parakeets.
• Prepare a backup well for the results of the breeding cage when the pair of birds has begun production.
• Keep the availability of food and drink. Keep in clean condition.

How to Train a Parrot to Talk on

 *Perrot* Parrot from Africa and Beo from Sumatra famous eloquent. But do not get wrong, there is no guarantee at all that when we bought the bird the bird will become part of the family and can talk later. To train a parrot to talk requires compassion, patience, and consistent. Young birds are generally much easier to train than on a old bird.

Affection 

Almost all pets need attention and affection from the owner. Attention and affection will be rewarded by him as shown when the owner will leave from or come home. Conversely, if the owner does not pay attention or show affection, then they will not be indifferent to what is desired by employers. Thus the necessary seriousness, without any requirement to receive their results if they'll talk later or not. Besides smart parrots are also known to be very sensitive. It is said that they can affect you if they have known you.

Patience

Like to train young children to learn to speak, so patience is required. Exercise should be done gradually and do not make the target time which in turn will only become a burden of disappointment when the expectations did not materialize. Feelings of disappointment can also override the little bird that had sensitive feelings. Who knows disobedience to the commands are as disappointed at the reaction because of your attitude. It should be remembered that in any case a bird may not be equated with small children in a certain time period has been able to speak.

Consistent 

Methods training should be done consistently and be accompanied by sincerity. Each word or phrase that is taught must be supported by the meaning or signs that distinguish it from other words. For example, when the sun rises regularly and repeatedly Say "Good morning" and at sunset Say "Good night". Differences between morning and evening the birds will notice the difference to the meaning of these two words. Do not mix up which will make him become confused. Other examples are:

• Say "Shower first!" when she would bathe and do not say that word if it is not going to be bathed. 
• Say "There's guests" when meet guests, or say "pretty quiet" when there are no people. 
• Say "Would you like broccoli?" indication when he was eating broccoli. If he does not want to eat and food is issued again to say "Don’t want?", Or when it continues to be stored nearby saying "Make later, ya!" 
• Say "Goodbye" on such a long time going off to work and when will be back soon to say "Coming back later." 

Before the true adept not invited once joked, for example, offer food but not so given. We recommend that you avoid the things that leads or will lead him out filthy words such as placing it near the bathroom.
