How to tame parrots in Minecraft

The main goal of Minecraft isn't to tame every animal possible, that doesn't stop people from doing it. And with good reason. Tame animals have their own abilities in the game. Some carry heavy objects, others defend the player in battle. Parrots are their own class of taming.

Taming a Parrot in Minecraft

The first step in taming a parrot is to find one. Parrots appear in jungle biomes, such as pandas and ocelots. They come in several colors: green, blue, light blue and yellow, gray and multicolored.



Parrots are tame like wolves or dogs. Give them their favorite food and wait for the hearts to appear. Parrots love seeds: wheat, grass, pumpkin, etc. Use the seeds on the desired parrot. Once the hearts appear, congratulations, you have tamed a parrot.

Parrots will fly around their owner and occasionally land on their shoulders. They don't fly very fast, so if you're in a hurry, you might leave your little parrot friend behind. They will stay on your shoulder until you jump.

What are parrots doing in Minecraft

Most of the animals in Minecraft have a purpose. Cats keep creepers away. Dogs scare skeletons and attack anything that damages their owner. Horses are great for transportation. Donkeys can be ridden and carry large amounts of inventory. Llamas have a high inventory and can form long caravans.

Parrots were added to Minecraft in the Java 1.12 update, also known as the World of Color update, in 2017. They are an oddity in Minecraft. In a game where most tame animals have some use, parrots don't have an obvious one.


Parrots have two unique abilities: mimicry and dancing. Tame parrots will mimic the sounds of nearby crowds. If there is a zombie nearby, your tame parrot may start to moan in response. It can be both boring and useful. Sometimes this serves as a warning that an unseen hostile mob is in the area. Sometimes it just causes anxiety when the player doesn't know the parrot is making the sounds.


Dancing is the cutest of the two abilities. At some point in Minecraft, you will find different music discs. Playing them in a music player near a parrot will make them dance. The dances may be different depending on the song chosen.


They aren't the most useful of the tame, but they're cute and it's worth taming several for a huge parrot dance party.
