Parrots fly under normal conditions, but they can tire and return to the ground after a short time. A parrot flies and usually flies upward if it is struck parrots flap their wings and fall slowly, preventing fall damage. Parrots are passive and swims in water by flapping its wings. From 1–3 experience orbs are dropped when parrots are killed by a player or a tamed wolf. The amount is increased by one per level of Looting, for a range of one to five with Looting III. Unlike most passive mobs, parrots cannot be bred.Ī parrot drops from one to two feathers upon death. Parrots naturally spawn in groups of 1–2 in jungles, sparse jungles and bamboo jungles above logs, leaves or grass blocks.
