Answer:

Hereditary traits.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since these two parrots (with two different parents), one with yellow feathers and the other one red, it would make sense that they inherited their traits from their parents.

Just as humans have different colors of hair. Parrots can have different chest colors. Both of these come from hereditary genes.
