The red ones (non-dyed) have a name I can't remember. I'll have to find it for us. They're parrots but a different variety. I hope you are not looking at those that are dyed!

Those that are deep red when young are called the Purple Blood Parrots. (should have remembered that one)

They can appear so dark red that they can appear to be nearly purple.
