I have done research on this type of bird, would you recommend one, I have a 7am-3pm job and am willing to give all my other time to it, should I get one?
Amazon parrots are so amazing looking. I've never owned one but they seam smart I don't mind loud parrots. Sun conures can be very loud. my baby was very loud but very loving. She totally bonded to me. It was just Drago her and I . Drago loves me but he need his self time were my ChiChi want on me 24/7. I feel parrots are a lot like people no two are alike.
Hi I have raised 2 DYH Amazon’s. Baby is 38 yrs old and Skooter is 37 yrs old. Alex is 15 years Old and Sunny just turned 3 years old! I have studied all the Parrots and follow the ones I find special etc...I will say this the Double Yellow Head is everything, They are t and hands down my number one pick they have Amazing Personalities hilarious, they have a grip on language ( I speak English articulate strong communication skil they love music Sunny is So Smart and does thing that leaves me c
I hope that you use a harness when you take them to outdoor patio restaurants regardless if their wings are clipped. I disagree with showing a cat in a bird video no matter how good your cat is with your birds! Many people just don't get the dangers so this isn't a smart thing to show.
Agreed. Our cats live in a separate part of the house. We don't take unnecessary risks, even though our cat knows we don't want him to bother the birds and he shows no interest when he occasionally gets out. We respect their animal nature.
Sunny just turned three he just started flying to me (my hand/fingers) instead of my head! Everyday we practice. I’m buying him a flight suit and harness/8 ft leash but until he gets consistent with coming to my fingers without deviation. We will not go outside for free flight training lessons even if he’s equipped with.a GPS I just wouldn’t do it if something happened to him I would lose it!!!
Do your amazons exhibit jealous behavior? Mine could be vicious. I don’t think there’s anything wrong with having your cat present. My cat has no interest in my birds, I do have a Caique that will go after the cat and another that likes to preen the cat. My other birds are aware of her but aren’t especially bothered. Great video.❤️
Whoops guys my phone has a mind of it’s own i was still typing when my iPhone decided to send my message prematurely! I will say Sunny is full of surprises but he’s the the Apple of my eye I’m on Facebook Deborah Wade and if you are interested and seeing or learning about Grey’s look me up send me a friend request!. Look forward to hearing fromn
We couldn’t catch your first name; Kaylin ? What about Blue Front Amazon? Which Amazon is best talker? And would that be a male bird? The best parrot snuggler is a Cockatoo; namely, Moluccan.
The most incredible snuggler I've experienced was my Golden Conure - have you ever experienced one? But, not a talker. Yellow-naped Amazons are supposed to be the best talkers; singers are Double-yellow or Yellow-crown... I can't say whether gender affects this, but I don't believe it affects an Amazon's talking ability. Spending endless hours is the best way to get a Zon talking! In some ways, what kind may not be as significant. My Red-crowned picks words up, he's young and we talk to him. Kalyn Thanks for posting, Anna -- are you getting a Zon? Are you familiar/comfortable with the SCREAMING? Of course, if you've experienced a Cockatoo, an Amazon's not AS bad...
Get ready for NOISE! I love Amazons, but not their noise level. Be prepared - maybe you'll be lucky. One of mine isn't bad and she's my soul-bird. I find them to be one of the most affectionate of my parrots. I think you'll be thrilled. And a little hard of hearing - LOL! Are you getting a baby or an adult?
@@ParrotBliss a baby there was also a panama amazon, afrixan grey or pionus. im not sure on which one to choose i cant decide! they all seem so amazing but im not sure
Thanks for sharing - it’s amazing how different each one is. My YNA is similar to yours, but my MRA is a young, energetic troublemaker - and a loud one too!
Hello! I love your videos! I'm considering getting an amazon as my next parrot (my parrot died recently). You mentioned how you love taking your parrots out places like to a restaurant or just outside in general and that sounds amazing :) When I get an amazon of my own I too want to be able to go places with it! However throughout all my years of owning parrots I never took them outside because I am scared of them flying away. Can you please either reply in a comment or make a video of how you trained your parrots to stay and how you take them outside? Thanks so much!
Hi Cute Puff! Yes, I'll make you a video, but I've done it all: clip, harness... And one of my Amazons doesn't fly 😭, so she's easy. But I'll tell you who is chill and great outside in the vid 😀
@@ParrotBliss Thank you so so much that would be very helpful im looking forward for the video!! Although I dont think I would ever clip my parrots wings just because I personally think its really important for them to be able to fly but I was planning on using a harness :) love your personality and your birds you seem really nice thanks again!
My Amazon likes to pretend he fights while I rub his tummy...He loves ❤ it but acts like he's fighting. He lived in a store for 13 years. I've had him for 12. Never thought I could love a bird.
@@ParrotBliss I've been told, he was born in the store. And he was treated bad. Kids poked him with sticks. After 13 years the employees took him . But they neglected him. He sat in the cold with green water in hallway. He was mentally abused. I took him around 2010. I felt his pain. He liked me after I gave him meat. Today, he's my best friend. Never thought I'd love a bird👋
It kills me to know about abuse - of any kind, but parrots are my heart. Yes, I didn’t think I could love parrots either, I was a cat person. Meat - I told my mentor that my Amazon climbed down from her perch and made her way to our lamb bones, and ate little pieces of left-over meat! He said, ‘Yeah, Amazons love meat, but it’s not good for them.’ Figures! What kind of Zon do you have? What’s his name?
Hi Mam, your videos are so wonderful. I recently bought an orange winged amazon parrot chick. Now its been 2 months that hez home. Now hez in the transition phase from hand feeding to self eating. Requesting you to make some videos about orange winged amazon and their talking abilities along with temperament. I dont see much of a videos on these. Hence it would be great if you can share some insight into these species.
People food that doesn’t have animal fats, like fruits and veggies, a little bit of bread - these can be good for them! Yeah, I think Amazons are the most notorious one person parrot 🦜
i have one and she's very loud she loves attention and she loves to sing. when she gets annoyed she does tend to scream. i rescued her and she doesn't like to be held or touched. she'll only go on my head because of that.
Please, tell me how better to hold as a pet, one or one pair of blue fronted amazon? I have a boy (near 4 years old ) and recent i got an 8 months old girl for him. In the last few weeks, he's become aggressive towards me. Will it be permanent or shortly? What am I supposed to do to keep him on my side? Thanks! I am very anxious and nervous about his attitude and I would like to know if he will return to me as he was before or not. What should I do? I am a poor old man who has in this world only a parrot and a few dollars a day, the vets ask me many hundreds of dollars for a little advice. Shame on them! Please can someone help me with a free advice. Thank you !
I'm sorry, I don't have enough information. Also, if you want a companion parrot, you would be better off with conures. They are very affectionate. Amazons are one-person parrots. If they choose you, they are very loyal.
Thanks a lot for the answer! In desperation I sent countless messages everywhere. Veterinarians ask me many hundreds of dollars for a short answer. I don't have this money. I am an 80-year-old man who has only one parrot (Yoyo) in this world and I am desable person. Hoping you can help me with some advice I send this information: Yoyo is 4 years old, someone gave me bad information and I bought for him a 9 month old female (Fifi) in January. Yoyo was an excellent pet with a wide vocabulary and extremely close to me. In the last 2-3 weeks he changed his attitude suddenly. He has become aggressive towards me, he always wants to attack me. What can I do? Will it be permanent or shortly? Is removing Fifi temporarily or permanently a solution? Will Yoyo come back to me? Now is the breeding period for amazon, after this period will he return to me as before? Thank you in advance with all my heart and soul! My address is 'dunavat888@hotmail.com'

Let me make a vid for you, just give me a few days :)
Difference between 30 gram and 300 gram is not 100 times but (if my calculator works well) 10 times🤓
:) I do my best - Thank you. Yes, 30 to 300 is X10
Witch one of the amazon between auropalliata of the aestiva amazon parrot is the best pet bird
They are supposed to be great Amazons, but I’ve never had one
I also have a green wing mccall now they r LOUD!!! But luv her all the same
They are said to be amazing parrots!
Can u please make some videos on food prep and food that are not good for them thanks for your time and sharing great content.😊
What kind of parrots do you have?
I have had mine able front amazon luv her alot of personality dont know what I'll do when she leaves me

Would you say Mealey amazons are different and don’t fall into typical behaviours of other amazons?
I can’t say yet- he has still been adjusting so we haven’t seen his personality
In the city of Orange, CA I saw a huge flock of about 30-40 amazons all in a tree. They were screeching up a storm!
That's so awesome! Great sighting! Yeah, they are loud!
