The hot 3 are usually considered the best talkers.
Yellow headed/double yellow headed.
Blue fronted.
Yellow napes.
That being said there is not guaranties that any one particular parrot will talk.
You have to be willing to love them for what they are.
When you have been chosen by an amazon weather they talk or not becomes of little importance.
yellow headed and yellow naped amazons are known as best talkers. Remember this doesn't mean the bird will talk. This depends a lot on the bird personality
Based on your requirements and expectations, none of them!
- There is no talk switch, nor is there a no scream switch and there is clearly not a no bite switch. And, when this poor Parrot does not talk, screams all day and inflicts several serious deep bites, it will all be the Parrot's fault.
- All the Big Hot Three can inflict serous facial and neck damage.
- Amazons as a species are beautiful, extremely smart and can make a wonderful 'companion'. None of them make a good 'pets.'
Please consider either a Cat or Dog as they will make a wonderful pet.
