I inherited my friends two Amazon Parrots after she passed away from cancer. They have not warmed up to me yet, but know that I am the one that feeds them and takes care of them. They enjoy hanging out with me when I am in my sewing room. They like to play with my cat. They are quite the characters. I wish I could get them to trust me more.
Amigo is such a good bird 🦜😎
Thx Ben! Have you had the opportunity to meet her in person? She’s a sweetie:) if you email me your address I’ll send you a couple tickets to the farm. Thank you!

@@Wherepigsflyfarm that hella nice
I'm adopting a 10 year old double headed yellow Amazon parrot and I'm glad I found this video! It makes me want him even more! I wish you werent all the way in Missouri. I would love to visit some day!
Kim Armstrong That is awesome! Hope everything goes well with your baby. Do not get discouraged if he is a bit temperamental, many of them are. They just take patients.
I had a double he was the kindest male in my life .
So sweet….God bless…❤❤❤…
Ive had my blue fronted amazon for coming up 10 years and i love him to bits. I keep him in a double macaw cage with the divider taken out. The cage is 6foot tall 7foot wide and 3 and a half feet deep. I feed my bird pellets with a splash of nuts and seeds thrown in then i make a fresh mixture of harico beans spinach cabvage boiled eggs carrot and i also mix in some of the pellets i crush to a powder then i bind it all together with sweet potato and i also give him a bowl of fruit whatever is in season (he loves star fruit and lychee 's) so i have 3 different pits of food in his cage. He's healthy and has great plumage.
Howzer The man Sounds like you have a very lucky bird! Wish all owners were as responsible as you. If you are ever in the area please let me know I will be happy to send you free tickets. 😊
@@techshabby0001 yes he's very tame. He loves sitting on my shoulder and leaning on the side of face and comes and takes food out my mouth when im eating.
How was his hormonal stage? I have a 2 year old Blue fronted amazon and I need to get as much tips as I can before it starts.
@@ArabianNuke he was very a handful from about 18 month until he was 5 but only for the mating season and he would be unpredictable and would bite but you just have to be careful and get on with it.
Paradise!
We love visiting your farm! Thank you so much for this informative video!
Thank you so much for coming out! Thrilled that you had a good time. If you email me your address I will send you a couple of free tickets and you can come back out again. 😊. Cindy@wherepigsflyfarm.com
"Do you like it here?" "I love it!" Oh my goodness I almost died of cuteness!!! 🥰🤗💛
I’ve lived with birds for about 40 years but just acquired my first Amazon, a yellow nape. You weren’t wrong when you said they are loud. She can be so loud at times my other parrots quiet down around her. But each bird is an individual and gets treated as such. Thanks for the video.
I love parrots
So precious…God bless….love you sweetie…❤❤❤..
I have 2 amozons a quaker parrot all my birds are rescues i even have pigeon and i absolutly love mine and want to get another!!!❤❤❤❤
Really cool to see this setup! It is so rare to find people who keep a bunch of different species together, cageless. I want to do that (build a whole huge room with outdoor space separate from the house, for the birds, I live in Norway and it's cold up here so they need mainly indoor space), but only for my own flock of
Thanks. I laughed with you over your birds trying to talk over you!!
Thank you for this video I’m planning on getting a yellow naped Amazon parrot and this video was very helpful thank you 😁
this helped soo much! I might be taking in my grandma’s yellow naped Amazon named Rocky soon! I’m very excited!
Very nobel to devote you're life to such wonderful and beautiful creatures. God bless you and all the birds in your care.
This place looks heavenly. I love parrots. I have a DYH Amazon, 14 year old. His name is Buddy.
Thank you! It really is a great place with wonderful animals. If you are ever in the area let me know I would love to have you visit free of charge. 😊
Hi Amigo!! Lol your quite a funny bird. Your rescue sanctuary looks like a wonderful place for any animal. Thank you for the things you do for these amazing souls. I have a lilac crowned Mealy Amazon. He saved me 11 years ago. He's my absolute favorite thing to do. We are together all the time. Someone broke my front door down and stole him from me last October and I seriously thought i was going to die but God led me straight to my baby. Oh what a happy reunion that was! Maybe Charlie and I will see you all one day!
You are certainly blessed! I love stories with happy endings. :-) Looking forward to meeting you.
Love the your birds 😀🥰
Awesome Video!!❤
I LOVE YOUR CHANNEL- thanks for the info
Thank you!!!
Have you been out to the farm yet? If you send me your address we will send you some free tickets. 😊
Aw very cute!! It’s the perfect bird for me!
TACO THE DRAWING PARAKEET If you’re ever out this way you will have to stop in and visit. Send me your mailing address and I will send you some free passes. Best of luck with your birds! :-)
Hello! I really want to go.. but sadly I can’t because I don’t live in the Missouri area I live in a different state away from Missouri but I would like to come
I love YOUR Show!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
cooool thx
I recently got a amazon I appreciate the information and would love to visit your place
Well now I knew all amazons talks when their mom are talking, not only mine 😂😂👌❤️❤️❤️❤️
Oh, Linn Mo, not too far from home either. I have had my Double Yellow Headed Amazon for about 4-5 years now. Its about 8-years old. Sometimes She sings with me occasionally as I record cover songs. She's always quite as a mouse if she thinks I want to take a Siesta, night or day.
That is awesome! She sounds like a great bird. If you send my your mailing address I will send you some tickets for the farm. Would be great to meet you in person. : ). cindy@wherepigsflyfarm.com
I am owned by a beautiful male yellow nape named jiminy. I have also recently adopted a little Meyers parrot. Jiminy is my best buddy. He is quite the talker and entertainer and is very sweet and cuddly. That being said they are definitely not an easy pet. They are a tame WILD animal and they do scream, chew make lots of mess, and bite...hard. It takes courage, time and patience to keep a pet parrot!
Awesome! I'm gonna visit soon.
i'm thinking about if i should get a parrot in a couple of years because i am obsessed with them haha
why are thay sooo cute
Thankyou so much for sharing your experience and knowledge about Amazons.
I love birds.i have a few finches and a pearl cockatiel.
He loves to spend time with my family and is mostly outside his cage.
Sheetal Kumar that’s great! If you are ever in Missouri stop by and visit, FREE of charge! Have fun with your babies. 😊
Thankyou so much.
Sure will.
Video was very informative. I have a Yellow Nape Amazon that I got in December 2020, learning what he likes and dislikes and when he wants attentions, which is most the time when someone is in the house. He talks a lot and says many things. Need a female companion for him.
hopefully that will make him happy. :)
I really enjoyed your video. recently lost my Sun Conure and am considering a double yellow headed Amazon.
Would love to visit, but I'm in the UK! I love birds and I have a yellow crowned amazon called Pippy. I'm his 4th owner, he's not had the best life but he's found his forever home with me. He's very sweet and loving, but he's also extremely noisy and hates me leaving him. They're a big responsibility and you should definitely do your research if you're thinking of buying one ! I'm very lucky with Pippy, after everything he's been through yes such a sweetheart.
Cuteeeeeee♥️
Love the video, I would love to adopt a bird, some day. Not right now cause I have cat. Just resurching on different birds for first time bird owners. Thanks for the video.
Indeed this was helpful I’d love to visit I’m just down the way in OK but I might be taking in a blue fronted Amazon soon not totally positive but definitely exciting to think about.!
I love Patriots they are so beautiful. Nut we dont fine them where we live.in new Mexico. Las cruces. I wish I haded on .🐦🐦🐦
Mine won’t talk in front of us for some reason, I have heard her say hello while in a different room. We got her in October, and she really only likes me.
Idk her age
Nice Video. Very helpful for people who are curious about larger birds and what it would be like to have one at home. I like the emphasis on the socialization aspect and how important that is. They can truly be special lifelong companions. thanks for the entertaining video.

Thank You! 😊🐾

my parrot is playful and very quiet...
Couldn't Help But Notice ... Is That A Live Wire Running To The Light Bulb ?
I loved your video about the Amazon parrots! I always wished I could have one but we have three cats and a dog at the moment. I would love to visit your farm but I live in New Jersey and it’s impossible at this time. Maybe in the future I hope!f❤
That would be wonderful!
I lived in Jersey in the 90s….Hackensack, Jersey City & Hopacong loved the east coast. Would be great to meet you.
@@Wherepigsflyfarm
That’s great. I don’t know much about Hackensack and I live in Hunterdon County, which is more Western New Jersey. I just love parrots! I wouldn’t mind having a cockatoo or a green Amazon, but I’m not sure if I can I’m in the middle of a change in my life at the moment. I love all animals and live in the countryside where the bears and coyotes rome. 😊
You couldn’t pay me to be responsible for a parrot! SO needy!
Do you ever adopt out? Or just a sanctuary? I have a 2 year old girl green cheek mia and love her was just wondering the difference between rescues and sanctuary
Hi there, we have a yellow head parrot and she is about 18 years.They are amazing Birds and I would like to know more about Parrots.
Is the beak a bit too long in a couple of your birds? How is that fixed ?
That looks like too much work for the 1 day I wanna have a party and impress my friends with a talking bird lol, and definitely not in an apartment! haha
Our amazon parrots Bonnie and Clyde are having a baby. Probably egg will hatch 🐣 around the 25th of July. Please help. I see you said in video that they will take care of parrot. Can they all stay together in same cage for a while? We have the large parrot cage. Any info u can give will be so awesome. I will also continue to watch your videos as they are very helpful. Thanks so much. From Albany Ny, Cathy
❤
My grandmother had one and kept her in a cage with little to no attention and zero toys because “she breaks them”. now we have her and we want her to get used to us (my father, mother, brother, and I). We honestly don’t know what to do. Whenever we think she’s getting used to us she tries to bite one of us. She’s also not the biggest talker, we’ve noticed that when she feels lonely she starts to scream to get our attention. We move her cage around the house and sometimes even take her outside in the cage, she’s not used to being outside of it. Do you have any advice for us?
I had a amazon over 20yrs. He passed away a few months ago. I got him as an adult. He was such a big part of my life....finding it hard to move on! Do you adopt out???
Interesting! I love parrots but at this point in my life it wouldn’t be responsible to have one. However I would love to volunteer at a parrot rescue to gain experience with them, but I don’t know where there are rescues in Ohio for parrots.
I have a orangewing parrot name Rocky i ❤him someone abuse him now got him thankyou video
i want one i want one please, i love parrots to my core and i'm waiting to finish my college to buy either double yellow headed amazon or blue fronted amazon. Also, which one do recommend i should buy?
I love to know about your Double yellow headed Amazon. How do you tell the male and female apart is there something to look for or tell by size or colour?
I believe the only way to determine sex is to have an avian vet do it…
oh how i wish i knew before getting one but rn i have bird fever
I have a Red lored just like yours
Stacey Prahl that’s awesome! Birds I was so incredible. If you text me your mailing address I will send you a couple of tickets to the farm, maybe you can visit! 314-241-3488. 😊
Very nice and interesting video.. I just subscribed..
Hello, please advise me on which is the most correct approach:
Padulo (10-year-old blue-faced Amazon) lives in a large cage, but at lunchtime and at dinner time I let him get out for an hour or two .. during this time he spends most of the time on my shoulder , doesn't show much interest in exploring or wandering around.
He is usually very sweet and lets me caress him on his head, he uses to take my fingers with his beak but with no intention of hurting. Then suddenly, even on the same day, it happens that I try to caress him, but he growls instead, opens his beak towards my hand with a threatening attitude, If I do not withdraw my hand he bites hard, although he rarely can make cuts on my skin..
Now what I ask is, why does he change his mood so suddenly, even on the same day? How should I behave when he doesn't want to be touched? someone says that I should insist and let him bite without showing any reaction, others say that his desire not to be touched should be respected when he doesn't want to. please help me...
Adolfo Melilli I sincerely wish I knew the answer. I have six Amazons, all with different personalities. One of them, my Maggie sounds just like your baby. She begs to be held but then for no reason will sometimes just bite me. Amazons are extremely moody and unpredictable. I’ve asked others about this and have not gotten any good answers. When I do get bitten I simply put her back on her perch and ignore her as punishment. When she is being nice to me I gave her peanuts as a reward. I hope you can straighten out your babies attitude. Best of luck! Sorry I don’t have a better answer.
@@Wherepigsflyfarm ok thanks anyway, I read somewhere else too that Amazons are among the most difficult parrots to deal with, because of their bizarre personality. my baby shows a bad attitude randomly, woud say reraly...then, even on the same day, he's sweet and well disposed as if nothing had happened..
So... you use to punish him... do you? I use to pretend his bite did not hurt me at all (it's tough to pretend, sometimes it's quite painful!) :-)
Hi there, I have an amazon parrot and he is an extremely picky eater.......he does not like to eat veggies and hardly eats any fruits....i have tried all different of ways to get him to eat the veggies and fruits..... he only wants to eat seeds....
I currently have a cockatiel which I’ve had for two years and I’m looking to get a second bird. I know that bigger birds tend to have bigger personalities and that’s what I want in my next bird, I’m looking for one completely different from my first bird. I’m a little stuck between getting a caique, Senegal or an Amazon. Could you help with telling me which one would be the best for me??
Some traits I really would like is
-more cuddly (my cockatiel just likes to stare at me he doesn’t really let me cuddle him)
- talking would be awesome but it’s not a must
- not so moody, or atleast shows warning if it wants to bite (my cockatiel is so moody and I love him so much but it’s a little upsetting cause it’s hard to spend a lot of time with him physically)
- also what one is the most quiet out of the three? Noise isn’t too much of an issue though
p̶e̶a̶c̶h̶t̶e̶a̶ Honestly, I have found that animals are similar to people each seems to have its own individual personality. Though, I have had two Senegal parrots and both of them have been absolutely wonderful, I would have to say they are my favorite. I have also had two cockatoos who have been absolutely wonderful. Though, I’ve had other people tell me that they are extremely moody.
Hopefully this helps. If you would like to visit the farm text me your address and I will send you a couple of tickets. 314-241-3488. 😊🐾
p̶e̶a̶c̶h̶t̶e̶a̶ I know this isn’t one on you list, but green cheek conures are quiet and very cuddly.
@@yeldalaveers7894 I do love conures. : )
@@Wherepigsflyfarm thanks so much i appreciate it! And i would love to visit the farm but unfortunately i live in a whole another country haha, but thankyou for the offer!!
I want to go work with you!!!
We are all Volunteers, and certainly welcome anyone who wants to help!!! 😊
@@Wherepigsflyfarm I'd wish I lived closer but this would be my dream to work with animals!
hi I have a Yello head parrot fo the past 7 years he is loosing the shine on his feathers any help will be appreciated
I recently rescued a female blue fronted amazon she will get on my hand but likes to bite when she does
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 not a huge fan of bigger birds; I like birds based on the personality. I met this one once, (I forget what type of Amazon) and we just clicked immediately. I'd never been like that with a bird before, I don't know if it's the species, or specifically that bird, but I'm interested. I really want to know if this is the right type of bird for me because that one bird was a charmer, and we got along so well. It was weird because he was a pet-store bird too, and they usually aren't nice, but that one saw me, and I could just tell that we had a special connection. Anybody else know what I'm talking about? 😂
My mother had a male Amazon parrots for more than 20 years, he is exact like the one on this video and after months that my mother passed away, he started laying eggs, the first egg a month ago, then a week ago he laid the second, the next day he laid the third, and this week he laid a fourth! 😱 it is normal?? What should we do ? ….please advise me 🙏🏻
I would never allow an Amazon on my shoulder. Even an Amigo.
Diana Guerrero lol, out of my six Amazons there are only two that I will allow on my shoulder. They really are moody birds. 😂
If you would like to come out and visit sometime send me your address I will send you some free passes.
Thank you, but I live in another country. I totally adore my life-long buddy Amazon, he makes life fun and worth living and is the love of my life. But I wouldn’t want to have a chunk taken out of my face or lose an eye if he tries to protect me from a perceived threat. Have a great day.
Are you guys still opened my wife and I would love to visit
Hello I have a question for you I have an Amazon bird and he has been doing some weird crying I wanted to know if you could help me with this
UnfortunatelyI don't have any idea. Is he being exposed to different sounds? Maybe trying to imitate something? Have you check with an aviary vet?
No he hasn't I don't know if it's a girl or a boy I don't know how to tell the difference but he opens his legs and makes this weird dance and noise I don't know if it's his hormones I was trying to post a video but it won't let me
I have a 32 yr old blue front he lives on a tree in my living room he has only seen a cage very spoiled he eats just about everything I eat
Do you guys sell birds? If so do you have a website?
Sorry, we don’t.
Love loros in which city you are?? USA
i was also taught that if i didnt have anything nice to say......., so im apologising again
annette vandepeer no worries! Sounds like you are up-to-date on your knowledge. That’s a good thing! If you would like a couple of free tickets to the farm please email me your mailing address. 😊

I have a 🦜 I live in Chicago
From were are you breeding
We don’t breed…
I have a male Amazon ( he's 9 yrs old) I have owned him for a year almost. I hear him whistle and talk when I'm not in the room... but when I am I can only get him to say peanut please and night night.
How do I encourage him to talk to me when I'm in the same room as him
Honestly that’s still something I have not figured out. Mine do talk like crazy when it’s just me, but when others are around they clan up like shy kids. They definitely have a mind of their own and act like two year old kids. Just keep
Talking to him. Hopefully he’ll come out of his shell. 😊
i have a yellow headed amazon and i need ro know everything and anything that you can tell me! i don't know its age or sex ,i know that i love my baby and need to learn everything and anything there is to know about this bird.
You should take it to an aviary vet to have it sexed. Not sure if they will be able to tell you the age… I would watch as many videos as you can on the birds. There’s so much to know.
Which Is the smallest Amazon?
white fronted amazon
I adopted a 17 yr old amazon from an in-law that kept him caged 95% of the time. He’s very aggressive even coming down from his cage to bite me when I’m not looking. I’ve only had him 3 months. He is an angry bird but I do see hope as I catch him on his back playing. Is another bird/parrot/amazon something that will make him happy? I just want him to have a good life
jprielip Oh I can feel your pain. It’s hard to say what a friendship will do. I have a very aggressive Amazon also. He will fly at me and attack. He did befriend one of the other Amazons, ironically, that Amazon then became aggressive. I’m praying he doesn’t make any more friends in my bird room. 😂
When I give him peanuts as a treat he is less aggressive. He also focuses more on eating and less on attacking. Have you tried treats? Amazons can be very unpredictable.
They require continuous attention and love.Unconditional love. Never ever hurt or neglect them. Exrteemly intelligent, but they aren't very forgiving and will remember any trauma FOREVER .
They need a lot of time out and interaction and handling everyday. I would've d go to Bird Tricks. They are great. It takes courage to work wit Amazon's.
African Grey parrots are the best talkers not Amazon parrots. Beautiful birds though but too noisy for me. I've had my Grey from a 3 month old baby. He will be 17 in May. Totally different to the Amazon species.
what is the address to your parrot place also is it a adoption area too
We are in Linn, MO. We don’t adopt birds out.
Are they loud?
Well duh
I really want a parrot and I am ok with all the work and entertainment.. I’m actually excited to spend a lot of time with it. But is it going to scream all night while we’re trying to sleep?
Denise B generally if you cover their cages they will quiet down. Wishing you the best of luck! If you email me your address I’ll send you a couple of free tickets to the farm.

Mine sleeps at night they go threw 12 hrs of sleep a 12 I wake him up to play with
i have a amazon my only complain about her is she bites me from time to time as a game and in the mornings she really really loud
That seems to be the norm for Amazon’s. Even my girls that are good will occasionally bite...matter of fact I got bit this morning on the face. Amazon’s are so unpredictable...and always very loud. Thankfully mine are in another building and not in my house. 😊
I love Amazon’s, but I don’t think they are better talkers than African grays. They are more comical than African grays.
That’s funny, our African Gray is the comedian. They are definitely unique.
Hi dear do u have a magna for sale please?
I love parrot, my dream is to go breeding place and buy a baby, take care of it, but they are expensive, I am for Ohio, Cincinnati someday my dream will be fulfilling. Hopefully 🥺
our double yellow head perrot has never wanted to learn a thing, does not want to be domesticated or has his personality and its on mating season.
What kind of meat can you feed amazon parrots
We don’t feed our Amazon’s meat. You can give them small amounts of chicken if you would like on occasion…but too much protein can lead to health issues. Hopefully this helps. 😊
How do I make my amazon teen yellow head parrot stop. Acting agressive. With me l. When he used to love me before.
It's normal for them. They are very unpredictable and get moody often.
Anybody recommends a place where I can buy an amazon parrot??
I feel like this is pretty broad because you get different type of amazons like a double yellow headed amazon and a mealy amazon act very different
