Precocious parrot earns Guinness World Record for identifying colors
Written by Angie Sharma on September 4, 2025
A precocious pet parrot from China earned a Guinness World Record for the fastest time to identify 10 colors.
Xiaogui, a pet belonging to Qin Feng, picked up colored straw balls and placed them into bins of corresponding colors in 33.5 seconds, earning the title for the fastest time to identify 10 colors by a parrot.
The parrot made one mistake during his attempt — placing a dark pink ball into a light pink container — but corrected the error in time to capture the record.
Feng, who adopted the parrot when it was just a baby in 2020, said Xiaogui showed an early love of playing with different colored balls, so he decided to train his pet to sort the colors.
