Hello!
I have recently come across an Amazon parrot in need of a home! She is still quite young and is wild caught and was raised with nestum here in Mexico. She has quite a sad story, but the owner has finally decided to give her away to a new family, I'm the one chosen to get her. The problem is I'm not familiar with Amazon parrots as they are highly illegal and endangered where I live, she cannot be rehabilitated since she was taken as a baby, and now (she is around 5 years old) she doesn't know how to fly yet and our rehabilitation programs suck with adult birds. I only have experience with cockatiels as I find them lovely and they are quite legal everywhere. I come here looking for advice, I know she is still quite young for an Amazon and I will have my avian vet take a look at her ASAP when she arrives (June 7th). I may buy a large dog crate as a quarantine while the vet gets her cleared of any diseases. Any comments are appreciated. I will share a photo of her
