    Abused Amazons (Questions)

    A few months ago, we took some Amazons from a bad owner. She was a 70 year old woman and she was terrible to these birds. They had no room in their cages, no toys, the buildup of stool was barely cleanable, and their feathers were so dirty that when they shook, a huge cloud of dust filled the...

    Is safe to keep an Amazon and a cockatiel's cage very close to eachother?

    The thing is, I have commissioned a huge cage for my parrots: a Blue-Front Amazon and two cockatiels. The cage will be big enough for housing the three birds, and an additional panel (with little holes so they can't bite eachother) will be added to separate both sides, one for each species...

    60 years old and cage bound (please help)

    When I was in high school, I visited my best friend's house every single weekend. I was told, every single time, to stay away from the Yellow Crowned Amazon on the back porch, because she WOULD bite me and was vicious. She was never allowed out of her cage, because she nearly bit the owner's...

    Hi all, So. Hubby is a teacher who knows a teacher who has a friend who knows a friend who has decided that she would rather put down her twenty-year-old African Grey and Amazon parrot rather than worry about it "going to a bad home." Sure--let's not call the local parrot rescue which...

    Tanya the Hispaniolan- Sad Update Post #24

    This is Tanya. She is at least 26 years old, perhaps older. At some point she was surgically sexed, so she may have been a breeder at some point. She was surrendered to a parrot rescue at which I volunteer. She had been on an all seed diet, and it had taken its toll. She was very weak, foot...
