So we all know how crazy, rough and tumble immature, teenage zons can be. Thought i'd post a video of what you can expect from your mature hen.

So cute! Kiwi likes to nose his golf ball around too, though I can only wish he would lay on his back and play like that. Just have to ask, did you train him to do that or does he come by it naturally? Thanks for sharing!

AWWW too cute. Jake is adorable, and watching him play like that and say hello makes me want to give him a big smooch. Thanks for sharing the video ,and I'm glad Echo found a home:)

That is HILARIOUS, Richard! Jake is having a "ball" obviously. ;) Say, isn't she in breeding mode right now....or is she past that sort of thing all together?

Hunter (almost 14) is driving me NUTS at the moment. She's only got 1 thing on her mind. :54:

Yeah Echo is living with a lady in N. Carolina who had gotten a baby OWA from us years ago. I'm so glad he found a loving home with other amazons, he always loved being around the other zons although the "girls" all hated him. He'd try so hard to be their friend but they all beat him up,even though he was twice their size, LOL. No ,we hear from his parronts often and they say he's doing great, he's finally the "King" he was meant to be. Very cool ,special amazon. One of our better "success" stories.

I'm sure!! 40+ years,I've only had Bosley 5 months and he has me wrapped around his talons LOL He acts very much like your Jake.
I can't even imagine being without him now. Last night we watched a movie and he sat on my shoulder cuddling into my face and preening me the whole time.
Your Jake is beautiful and you are a lucky man and a good parront!!
