Raw Parrot in Lahore

The raw parrot, or raw tota, is the local name for the Alexandrine parakeet, a large green parakeet with a red shoulder patch and a heavy red beak. In Lahore you will find chicks, young talkers and breeding pairs listed by sellers in Model Town, Johar Town, Gulberg and the city's bird markets. Adult males develop a black and pink neck ring, which helps when choosing a pair. Compare prices and message sellers directly to ask about age and diet. Raws are hardy in Pakistan's heat, but in Lahore summers still keep them shaded, give a water bath and never leave a cage on a sunny rooftop.
