AVERAGE LIFESPAN OF COMMON PET BIRDS
These lifespans are just averages, many ‘mutations’ such as Lutino Cockatiels do not have as long a lifespan due to inbreeding. Regular veterinary check ups and having your bird on a good diet will make a big difference to their lifespan – for more information on diets see the link on our website.
