Kiwi, 7 year old Orange wing Amazon
Hi. I just got my first Amazon. His name is Kiwi( I'd change it due to its popularity but since its the only word he says I better not).
He is 7 and lived with a woman and her family for 6 years before she sold him to me. He is VERY tame, very outgoing, seems to be i love with our ten week old puppy( regurging) and is keeping me busy!
He is used to having run of the house, so I have cages or perches or playstands in every room, except my 11 year old daughters!
I will try to include a pic here if I can figure out how to do it.
Glad I found this group!

Wohoo! Another member of the Kiwi club! Your Kiwi is beautiful, sounds like he will be thoroughly spoiled and looks like he enjoys a wide variety of tasty and healthy foods already. I am just a *little* biased, but zons are probably right up there on the top of the list of best birds you can have;) Hardy, mellow out with age, not prone to behavioral problems (in loving homes) and very smart. Hope to see you around!
