I have a almost 3 yr old love bird, she will be 3 around feb of 2007, how old is she in bird years e2007-11-24 17:21:57

I saw the formula for birds but its a tad bit confusing, because when I tried to do it, it didn't come out right:

Finding an animal's "human age" is easy. The formula is the same from animal to animal, even though the numbers are different. Parrot species age a lot like we do, with a few major differences. Most parrot species reach reproductive age between a couple of months old (Lovebirds, Cockatiels) to seven years old (Macaws), so in those first months or years, they've aged as much as a 13 year-old human. Every year after that, most species experience one-year- to three-years-worth of physical aging for every calendar year they live. For instance, Lovebirds and Cockatiels can live a maximum of around 20 years, at which time, they would be elderly (like our 70s or 80s) :

2 mos. = 13 years + (20 yrs X 3yrs per yr) = 73 human years average maximum life span (20 calendar years)

In larger birds like Greys, the formula is more like:

2 yrs. = 13 years + (58 yrs X 1 yr per yr) plz help

Answers:

i think it would be 20 or19

She is 3 years old. There is NO formula about bird age. It is what is.
