I've got a parrot. There are more than 393 species of them in tropical and subtropical regions! 
Wow! That is amazing. Can you breed parrots?
I'm sure you can but I don't. I just have the one, named Todd! He loves to eat seeds, nuts, and fruit!
Todd is a great name! When I envision a parrot, I think of really bright colors. Do all parrots have bright colors?
That's what I think of too. Most of them have very vivid colors, and they can also be multi-colored. I agree, that's probably the most distinctive thing about them.
I have had parakeets and I loved that I was able to teach them to talk. Does Todd talk?
He talks a lot! And he's also just cool to look at. He has a very strong, curved bill and giant clawed feet.
