The most common factors that affect a parrot's life are nutrition, veterinary care, and mental health.
Your parrot will thrive if you provide them with a secure and clean enclosure with plenty of space to climb and spread their wings. They should also get lots of natural sunlight or full spectrum lighting (rather than artificial light alone) as it will allow them to better process nutrients and establish an appropriate day/night cycle for their mental well being.
Some birds should also be housed with other birds since they are a flock species. Humans cannot take the place of another bird, no matter how hard we try.
If you are purchasing a pet bird, make sure to choose one from a trustworthy breeder. They should be able to provide you with health information on the bird's parents since genetics are also a factor in longevity.
