I am just worried about both birds. The just swapped because I wanted an Amazon does sound harsh to me. Plus I worry that the Amazon isn't going to be there long either, because when they have children and there is the risk of a child being bitten I'm sure the wife will have strong reasons to re-home. As far as the culture thing I'm looking on Craigslist right now st a quaker near Orlando that is stuck in a garage surrounded on three sides by walls of junk in a filthy cage, and the poster says wife says the bird has to go! And that's here in America!!! I want to save it but I really have no more room money or time....so.if anyone wants a quaker look under quaker title wife says it has to go! It's been on there s month...plunty of uninformed or lackadaisical people playing with these increadably smart and feeling parrots in every country!

This thread is making me supremely unhappy and sad. Please don't get or keep a parrot if not everyone in the household is on board. It makes for a very tense and stressful time because having an Amazon parrot is like having a child and if everyone in the house doesn't want a child it's not going to work out.

I have 2 Yellow Nape Amazon, Max and Hannah. Hannah had her nest raided by her previous owner and there were some other issues she still loved her other owner I think. We have had a a bit of time now and she still lunges and bites. I read to her, I can spoon feed her and she will let me take her out of the shower on my bare arm without blood. Someone in here wrote a beautiful poem about a bird unpacking their baggage. If you can find it read it. Parrots have all the emotions we do as humans except without a filter. Don't expect a quick fix. It will take months if not years. I feel bad for your African Grey. Would you trade in a child when you got tired of it? A parrot is no different. Shame on you.
