I almost think male. Females have a 'softer' look to their eyes.

Hello There :) your fids names are very nice. Kiwi is an orange winged amazon and pickles is a yellow crowned amazon. Both girls and just under a year old. Amazon fever, I reckon I ve caught it as well, awaiting a response from my breeder about a baby yellow crowned amazon I d like to purchase in a little over a week :) have a nice day. Take care

I think your yellow naped looks like a female to me. She seems that way because of the softer eyes and rounder head. I ve only had parrots for almost a year so I could be wrong but that's my guess based on the physical features.

I think alot of the condition is due to age of your zon. Young zons are very rough and tumble.Their feathers often show signs of wear that older(less active)adults don't have. YES, diet plays a large part in the condition of feathers. Have you researched diet for amazon? IMO (in my opinion) those feathers would be normal for many young amazons.That being said, weekly baths, proper diet and several forms of enrichment ( to keep bird from being bored) will help promote better feathers and appearance.

Hey Saud, that sounds like a better diet than most birds get. I would add fresh foods to his diet. We feed lots of sprouts and fresh fruit and especially veggies. generally putting lots of focus on VitA rich foods(sweet potatoe,squash,carrots,Red palm, palm nuts,Kale,etc). Unfiltered sunlight is also a must for VitD3 and calcium(egg production).
