Parrots ride on your shoulder, dance to music and copy the sounds of nearby monsters.
Taming
Feed parrots any of these:
Wheat seeds,
Melon seeds, pumpkin seeds, beetroot seeds, torchflower seeds or pitcher pods. Bring plenty, it can take a few tries.
Shoulder riding
Walk into your tamed parrot and it jumps onto your shoulder. You can carry one on each shoulder. They hop off if you take damage or go in water.
Mob warnings
Parrots copy the sounds of hostile mobs nearby, like creepers, skeletons and zombies. If your parrot hisses like a creeper, look around.
Dance party
Play a music disc in a
Jukebox and parrots within 3 blocks start dancing.
