Our 20 year old Amazon.

I'm trying to find a new bird food for my Amazon. Are there any good online sites where I can buy bulk? There aren't many specialty bird stores in Dallas, Tx. If anyone knows of some in Dallas, please reply also.:green1:

Somebody posted this on my FB page probably to show how "terrible" parrots are: Parrot Attacks and Bites Violinist - YouTube What? UNEXPECTEDLY??!?! Okay, I never owned an Amazon and have seen them just a few times, but isn't it obvious from the first second that the bird is extremely pissed...

Hi, I need some advice/help: My uncle, Kevin, has had a yellow-naped Amazon, Andrew, for 21 years. He has spoiled this guy rotten--he went to Starbucks every morning for a banana nut muffin, would go to brunch all the time, and even on bike rides and trips in the convertible. He's always been...

Hi All, Just a quick question about my Orange Winged Amazon Mowgli. Briefly I'll let you know about him before I get to my problem. He came from a home where he was cooped up in a very small cage and never let out - he is also missing one of his toes ( which having taken him to the vets - is...

Hello parronts! So long story short I used to have a Grey. I always joked that if he were human he would be an old man who would wear a top hat and smoke a pipe that he would slowly puff on with an air of distinguishable intelligence. For a long time I thought it was just Woody, but then as I...

Hello, I got married 5 months ago and now I have a teenage step son (double yellow headed amazon) who wants to bite any time I walk by the cage. Well, he bites everybody, he also makes loud noise which I am not used to. I never had a bird and I have no idea what to do with him. :confused: I...

What are your Amazon's favorite perches? Do they like swings or boings? I'm going to meet a BFA this week. If all goes well, he'll be coming home with me. :)

I am trying to decide between a African Grey and a blue fronted Amazon. I was hoping you guys could help me compare and contrast them. I have not owned either one. Thank you for your help :)

Hello, I've just joined this forum so I'm trying to get used to it (took me ages to work out how to even post a forum haha) anyway, one of our neighbours has a family member who has needed to make a big change in his life by re-homing his beautiful 3 year old amazon parrot. My family were...

Monty acts really strange when we vacuum around his cage. He makes lots of his usual noises like singing but then he starts dunking his head in his water bowl. He does not do this at any other time. He conpletely drenches his head and I don't know why! It doesn't usually seem to do him harm...

Hi, we just got a new blue fronted amazon parrot about 3-4 days ago. He is about 8 years old and his previous owners smoked. He is already starting to talk a little with us. He is also very responsive (turning his head and flaring his pupils when we talk to it). I do have a few concerns though...

I got Gizzy from someone who wasnt taking care of him. He didnt play with toys, and sat on a plain perch that ran the width of his cage. I get him to play with some toys, and I've incorporated different types of perches for him. He seems to adapt ok, but he still seems bored. Any tips on how to...

This is my Yellow Nape. She is 26 years old and still as pert and happy as she was the day I got her when she was three months old. She is a part of me. I love her dearly, but I am going to have to sell her because of my health.

These are pics of my bird. I have had 26 years. She eats with me, used to sleep with me, and she is a part of me. I love her dearly.

Any ideas on how to get my YNA to start showering? He hates when I mist him, so I stopped doing that. I can bring him into the shower with me, but he'll avoid the water and does not like when I "drip" the water on him. He's only bathed once in his water bowl to my dismay. But honestly, he looks...

Hey guys! Just wanted to introduce myself. My name is Liz and I've just rescued a Yellow Naped Amazon almost two weeks ago. His name is Chuffles and he is 10 years old. He is my first "large" parrot and so far no regrets! He's becoming more and more relaxed each day - as well as more vocal...

Hey there! So this is my first ever post here. I have just acquired a YNA, male, approximately 10 years old. My grandmother had him for 6 months (prior to that, I have no idea) and she had him in a king cage with just one metal perch, a dirty water cup, and fed him wild bird seed feed. I...

I have a Blue Front Amazon that is 16 years old. He is acting very funny. As of late, he likes to hang out on the side of the cage. Pic below. When I go to bed he raises hell by flapping his wings. To night when I got home he was acting real funny and hanging on the cage door. I then opened...
