Questions

Can I use these parrot sounds in a YouTube video or a paid project?

Yes. Every clip here is CC0, public domain or CC BY, and all of those allow use in monetised videos, podcasts, games, apps and client work, with no fee and no need to ask.

Do I need to give credit for these parrot sounds?

Only for five of the six clips, the ones marked CC BY 4.0. Put the credit line in your description or end credits, for example "Monk Parakeet, Lythronax246, CC BY 4.0", "Rose-ringed Parakeet, Melanie Newfield, CC BY 4.0" and "Red-masked Parakeet, Monica Ventrice, CC BY 4.0". The other one need no credit.

Do all parrots sound the same?

No. Each species has its own calls, which is why this page has six of them: Monk Parakeet, Blue-crowned Parakeet, Rose-ringed Parakeet, Red-masked Parakeet, Red-crowned Amazon and Lilac-crowned Amazon. If you are trying to name one you heard, start with the species found near you.
