Parrots are one of the many mobs in Minecraft that can be tamed. They come in a variety of colors and make for great companions when you are playing by yourself. But, parrots can get annoying as they will constantly follow you around and sit on your shoulder without asking first. Here is how to remove a parrot from your shoulder in Minecraft.
How to Tame a Parrot in Minecraft
First off, a parrot will only land on your shoulder and hitch a free ride only if you have tamed it. Wild parrots will not sit on your shoulder. In order to tame a parrot, you need to feed it a seed. Any seed will do and each one has a 33% chance to tame the parrot. Once you have tamed a parrot, it will sit on the ground or fly and try to land on your shoulder. The parrot can end up on your shoulder if you walk through it, too.
