It is a medium-sized parrot in the genus Psittacula of the family Psittacidae. It is named after Alexander the Great.
The Alexandrine parrot largely measures 56 to 62cm from head to tail, weighing 200 to 300g. Majority of its length lies within its tail, which measures about 28 to 35cm long.
You can easily tell the Alexandrine parrot differently from others by its colours. Its dominant colour is green with a yellow-green abdomen, red patch on the shoulder, light blue-grey cheeks, and incredibly noticeable red beak with a yellow tip. Their tail is a gradient of green and blue following a yellow tip. The underside of its tail is yellow as well.
This parrot produces a variety of sounds. Compared to most parrots, their cries are usually deeper, brassier, and fuller. Their voice becomes more abrasive when alarmed. They also shriek loudly when surrounded by predators. They are believed to vocalize harmoniously when flocking.
In captivity, the Alexandrine parrots are popular not only for their ability to imitate human speech, but especially for their ability to do it clearly. Some of them are too precise that they feel the need to master the clarity of their words.
Alexandrine parrot males are also believed to be better with clarity and their ability to pick up greater set of vocabularies.
These parrots are intelligent, playful, and can be easily taught to learn tricks. But due to their intelligence, they need to have toys present to keep them stimulated. Though playful, the Alexandrine parrot is not nippy. However, this type of bird has the tendency to pick its feathers. So it is important for a keeper to teach them to play independently whilst they are young.
