How to Tame Parrots in Minecraft?

Last updated
Ever wondered how to make those colorful birds in Minecraft your friends? You’re not alone! Let’s dive into how you can tame parrots in the game.
Getting a parrot to follow you around in Minecraft is not just cool, it’s also pretty easy once you know how. So, how do you tame a parrot in this sandbox adventure?
Feeding Parrots to Tame Them
First things first, you’ll need to find some seeds. Parrots love seeds, and that’s your ticket to taming them. Wander around the jungle biome until you spot a parrot. Once you do, gently approach it.
With seeds in hand (try wheat seeds, melon seeds, pumpkin seeds, or beetroot seeds), right-click on the parrot. It may take a few tries, but eventually, hearts will appear over the parrot’s head. That means you’ve successfully tamed it! Congratulations, you now have a feathered friend.
Making Your Parrot Sit or Follow
Once tamed, your parrot will either follow you around or you can make it sit. Just right-click on your parrot friend, and it will toggle between sitting and following. Your new companion can even ride on your shoulder if you walk through it. To get it off, just jump.
Remember, parrots mimic the sounds of nearby hostile mobs, so they’re not just pretty; they’re useful! Just be careful not to feed your parrot cookies, as they are harmful to them in the game.
