Ok, I already see photos - it's a rosella hybrid (maybe x Australian ringneck?)

1. Parrots don't have breeds
2. We can't say it without photo or description
My photos didn't attach properly first time so edited and I mean species sorry

It's fine, I refreshed and wrote the next post.

I vote for Eastern rosella x Australian ringneck - I'm not sure how this hybrid would look like but its wings look more like ringneck than rosella and it has white cheeks (I know there are such hybrids between these two genera)

Thank you, from looking at other pictures I think you are right. Would you happen to know anything about the life expectancy for such a bird? I know that with hybrids they tend to have shorter lifespans but by how much?
 
Unfortunately I don't know the details... There aren't many information available about specific hybrids, you would have to learn about both types - rosellas and Australian ringnecks. I can't answer how much exactly they live shorter, I can just say that intergenus hybrids live even shorter and are in bigger health problems risk than hybrids of two species of one genus
