My two are not cuddly although my Yellow nape is. My female is half wild rescue . I suspect she may have been poached as a baby from the local wild breeding flock.it’s a long story. My male is hand tame but does not accept touching anything but his feet. Both birds say Parrot. Hello. Michael. Such a cute parrot. th-cam.com/video/x-oPDBzoP7c/w-d-xo.html
I got mine when it was 5 weeks old and my kids and I hand fed him so he is very good with people, my MRH loves being the center of attention n loves showing off!
I’ve got an 11 month old boy and I love him! He’s super cuddly and has bonded to me very quickly. He also does not wake me up in the mornings so I love him even more for that. Definitely an amazing upgrade from having cockatiels all my life.
I grew up in a multi parrot household. Dino, my green cheeked amazon, was simply the best. He was full of personality and sass. He was my best friend for 23 years. Sadly, he passed away a month ago due to kidney failure. He was 32 years old. I am just now learning that his species is endangered. I shouldn't be too surprised, considering that habitat loss and illegal capturing continues to rise. I love all parrots, but amazons will always hold a special place in my heart. As you can see, Dino is my profile picture 😁
What a lovely, insightful video :) My grandmother got an Amazon back in the eighties and as you might imagine, back then, no one knew how to take care of such a bird. What little information there was, mostly was aimed to make the owners life easier, not ensure the parrot is kept properly. So, after being caught in the wild as a baby, shipped around the world, he spent his first decade in a way too tiny cage, mostly being ignored, because he wasn't handleable and became more and more aggressive over time. As soon as I was old enough to realize, I tried and succeeded to bond with him. But being a kid still, I too didn't fully understand how to make his life better. Over time, I learned and tried my best to improve his situation, while he still lived with my granny. One day I finally managed to take him with me. He now has a huge enclosure and since I work from home, he is with me most of the time. I am glad to be able to keep him near me all the time, since finding a bird friend for him was deemed impossible by several experts - he is absolutely terrified of other birds, probably due to what happened during the transport. Alas, he is enjoying attention and love as much as appropriate food. While I try my very best to make his birdy life an awesome one, we still have to work through a lot of issues due to all the years of neglect. But he is doing a great job and is a wonderful friend and I see that he is happy now. All that being said, I still feel guilty for not helping him sooner, but I will continue to make it up to him. Seeing you and your peers doing your best to educate people about those animals is just wonderful and I am sure you are saving many of them from ending up in awful situations. Thank you!
I found one on the floor a few weeks ago. Couldn't fly. Covered in poop and looked burned too. It's made a great recovery socializing with us now. I'm very lucky to have found her.
Definitely plan to! They aren't legal in california but I've been getting ready to move in a few months out of here so I can get access to more birds like the Quaker. It'll come! My goal is to review EVERY parrot after all 😉
The burning pet store thing is a total myth. And if anyone is considering buying a parrot, do NOT listen to this guy’s advice. He’s totally wrong on 85% of it.
I've been thinking about getting one, esp the Red crowned. But I often read that they get nippy as they age, not really sure. I prefer parrots as a pet, one that plays and likes cuddles.
I have a red crowned amazon and it cracks me up she got a 2.8 out of 5. My girl is such a brat sometimes but also so so loveable . Im lucky im her favorite person because she definitely will try to bite other people shes scared of! She was my first larger parrot and the bluffing stage is NO JOKE. She was a nightmare! But I love her to bits. I definitely think you downplayed how loud they are 😂 i loved the vid though and I'm definitely subscribing!
I have one of these and he’s mean as shit to everyone except me and even with me he is sassy when he wants to be and when he goes for a bite he means it! I have nerve damage in my thumb because he hates phones and I was attempting to snap a picture not thinking and he got me instead of the phone. No idea why he hates phone he just always has. Maybe something happened in his life before I got him. Just saying, it’s true they can indeed be evil fellas.
I've had one for over 30 years. His name is Gonzo and he is a character. Occasionally loud at times but not often enough to bother you. They are smart and will repeat words they hear. You can teach them a few words. Gonzo probably has a vocabulary of about 25 different words or sentences that he says. We had numerous parrots and this is the best one by far. The others had at least one deal breaker such as too big, too loud, too unruly. Green cheeks/Red heads are the best overall bird on the planet.
We have two red crowned parrots that we love so much. You are definitely right about them being bossy and noisy hahaha. Love them though! They love being on peoples shoulders.
I have amazons and think veggies are the key to a healthy diet with them. Chop made with veggies, grains and legumes daily to keep then healthy, subsidised with a cold pressed pellet. Great for mentioning fatty liver as its a bug issue with amazons
@@nataliegaona96 i use tops pellets which are common avaliable in lots of places. Depending on your country, its often stocked in bird stores and online. I'm in the UK so I use scarlett parrots essentials but I know its easier to get in the US if that where you are 😁 hope that helps
Are there any low energy large birds? I'm looking for something big like a scarlet macaw but I'm unable to take care of something demanding due to school, that and I live in dorms and can't have a loud bird.
Come to Orange County right now and you might recalculate that number in the wild. In Yorba Linda I never saw them stop they always pass. Loud as hell. Now they are every in the trees. Go to Tustin Mariners park at Sunset and there a thousands. They are huge. I hold my arm out hoping one lands on me. But I already have a Pineapple conjure and his bites hurt...theses redheads looks even more painful. But I do want one. My next bird will be a Grey.
I love your reviews! Always fascinating to learn more about another parrot species. Keep up the good work, my dude. Although not a species review, I'd love to see you do a tour of Omar's Exotic Pets - it sounds like a great place. I'm curious of another thing - although tropical pet birds but not parrots, would you ever consider reviewing finches?
I've thought about it but with small show birds, there's not as much to talk about compared to parrots or other larger exotic birds like toucans or birds of paradise. But as this channel grows, I'm open to trying more types of content
Hey fives a flock so i got a fledgling plum head now in the cage he steps up n stuff but for the rest of the training i need to bring him out As soon as i did he just flies away when i come near him what to do(i had to catch him with a towel to put him back )
Try and be more patient with it. Don't start off by just letting it out. Think from its perspective that the cage is a safe spot for it and now a predator is taking it away from safety. Instead approach things slowly and focus more on keeping the cage in an active part of your house, or putting the cage on your office table where you spe d your time working or playing games or something. Get it used to your presence that you are not a predator then do things like keeping your hand inside the cage but not grabbing it. It's all about building trust and making it learn you are not there to eat it.
About 5 months ago we had one land in front of our house. We’ve been posting it and went looking for the possible owner in our area., and still nothing. The bird seems to really like my husband. Still won’t let us hold him. But he does let my partner scratch him, and occasionally me. We love in Mexico, and speak a lot of Spanish in our household. Will this guy get more comfortable with us and become more talkative?
I just rescued a Red Lored Amazon ( female) and. yellow Naped Amazon ( female). One is 43 and the other is 45 years old. They don’t talk a lot. Are they too old to learn?
That’s a tough choice, if you had a fire and you released all your birds to save their lives but you also are screwing with the local ecosystem. I never considered that personally what I’d do in a fire. What would you do?
Hi, 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.
Can you please make a video on the CITES, and how does it affect an average parrot owner? I tried to read about it, but it quickly became overwhelming tbh. :(
i have a question i have a ringneck parrot but the problem with her she is not tame it is like she has been in the bluffing stage forever whe has litrally killed 1 of my cockatiels i need some suggestion
There’s one for adoption in my area that I’m seriously considering getting. He’s great now (he went through a bad stage because his owner passed away…he seems to be over it now) he’s 22 years old. Loves to play.
Could you please do a video on jardines parrots. There is such little info out there about these amazing birds and a video from you with all this knowledge and tips would help alot of people 😁
you totally blatantly stole Clint's reptiles idea for doing videos. be more original... you could have switched it up but this is literally just a copy/ paste version of his channel's videos with your name on it
Sad news. I might be going into the concentration camp in MI next year because of Whitmer and her admin. It was all because I am not vaccinated. So I am not getting a bird. Hopefully, God will give me one when He comes back. The end is very near. God bless. Please pray for everyone. Ask God, The Virgin Mary, the Saints and Angels for mercy and for Him to come back earlier to stop ww3.
Red Crowned Amazon owners! What has been your experience owning these parrot?
Hi! That’s not a yellow cheeks parrot (amazona Autumnalis), that in your video is an Amazona VIRIDIGENALIS!
Yes, Amazons are very cuddlings and loves petting! But… as you tell: they have caracters and moments of crazyness!😂
My two are not cuddly although my Yellow nape is.
My female is half wild rescue . I suspect she may have been poached as a baby from the local wild breeding flock.it’s a long story.

Yikes, floor of where, a parrot torturing factory? Poor girl, glad she's found someone not burn-y.
I have a red crowned Mexican Amazon and she is amazing! Loves everyone, super friendly. Overall I highly recommend them
When are you gonna do quaker parrots? I wanna see how my boi captain crunch ranks on your bird scale.
Definitely plan to! They aren't legal in california but I've been getting ready to move in a few months out of here so I can get access to more birds like the Quaker. It'll come! My goal is to review EVERY parrot after all 😉
yes!!!
The burning pet store thing is a total myth.

Please stop reviewing animals that you haven't personally kept.

A caicque sounds nice for u
Caique*
Hahn’s are good too
Get a cockatoo
Just get a dog! Who cuddles with a bird? They are reptiles never forget that!
This was very informative, there’s not much info on this type of bird out there. Thank you for sharing

Stop the tracking of Mexican parrots.
My mom had two of these, except they had yellow. I want one so bad but still gotta see if its right for me
So sad to see, thisbabybird should be by his parents. Horrible those stores
Oml, where did you get that shirt!!!
We have two red crowned parrots that we love so much. You are definitely right about them being bossy and noisy hahaha. Love them though! They love being on peoples shoulders.
We have a female and a male. The female is somehow the chattier one while the male is the playful & energetic one.
You should review African grays😊
I’ve seen a flock, in Los Angeles
I have amazons and think veggies are the key to a healthy diet with them. Chop made with veggies, grains and legumes daily to keep then healthy, subsidised with a cold pressed pellet. Great for mentioning fatty liver as its a bug issue with amazons
Thanks for the info Sophie. Where do you get your pellets ?

This is an endangered species.

maybe this market isn't for you then
any parrots are not for you
I would love a video about Eclectus Parrots! Your videos are really informative!
Please do a review on the blue and gold macaw and the umbrella cockatoo
is that the 🦜emoji?
Come to Orange County right now and you might recalculate that number in the wild. In Yorba Linda I never saw them stop they always pass. Loud as hell. Now they are every in the trees.

What would you do?
Saw the cool Indian ringneck and moustache parakeet video. Do you think you could get a hold of the asiatic bird? The Derbyan parakeet from Omar's?
Please review the 28 parrot/and or the Australian ringenck parrots

Please tell me you'll be doing Quaker Parrot soon 🙏🏻 love your videos!!!
quaker parrots are illegal in california
Poop machines 😂
I miss the one that I grew up with. He was such a shredder and head banger. Couldn't fly very far but he did get around. 🥝🦜
Can you please make a video on the CITES, and how does it affect an average parrot owner? I tried to read about it, but it quickly became overwhelming tbh. :(
I saw the thumbnail, thought it was a kakariki, I swear I skipped a beat here lol Wonderful parrot tho S2
i have a question i have a ringneck parrot but the problem with her she is not tame it is like she has been in the bluffing stage forever
whe has litrally killed 1 of my cockatiels i need some suggestion
Also known as a Mexican Red-Headed parrot.
Mine is crazy lol her name is Ella and she does funny stuff like fighters the air like a ninja!
There’s one for adoption in my area that I’m seriously considering getting. He’s great now (he went through a bad stage because his owner passed away…he seems to be over it now) he’s 22 years old. Loves to play.
I’ve seen flocks in all parts of San Diego since the 90s
Why would you take a wild animal out of its native environment
Amazons are just built different
I really like your videos. I got a mayer parrot because of your vidios.
Pls do sun conure I’ll like to hear your perspective 😁
Could you please do a video on jardines parrots. There is such little info out there about these amazing birds and a video from you with all this knowledge and tips would help alot of people 😁
Do all the birds you review have their wings clipped?
But i got mine cheap 1500
Between the Hahns macaw and Orange winged Amazon, which one do you recommend?
Hahns macaw
I've had mine for 28 years
