Top ten in what? Popularity? Biggest? Smallest? Loudest? Most colorful? Or just personal opinion?

Hardly anybody has Cape Parrots so they are definitely not in the top ten most popular parrots. Conures are very popular. Macaws aren't as popular in general due to the fact that they require an experienced bird keeper. Senegals have been recently introduced in the pet trade ( which is why we really haven't seen older ones ). Ringnecks aren't as popular as one might think.
