- Used to own 2x Maximillian Pionus Parrots and a Cockatiel, looking into getting a Blue Fronted Amazon :)
Hi, i joined the forum today as i am trying to gather as much information on Blue Fronted Amazons.
Basically im looking into getting a baby which is hand reared (currently still being hand fed as hes not ready for another 2 months) and very well socialized with people of all ages, household noises and other animals.
The things concerning me are:
1) the internet/books give conflicting information about the Amazons tempermant.
2) sexual maturity, Amazons turning physco
3) the noise. Some sites/book say they are relatively quiet, others say they are very loud..alot.
Ive spoken to breeders also who cant agree. One will say they are very good pets but loud, another says they are loud first thing in the morning but to prevent it cover the bird up. They are only loud when bord.
So i figured as well as reading about them id ask people who have or do own them. I do feel some breeders do not tell the truth as they just want money. Just want to make the right decision for the bird and myself/family.
Any help will be very well appreciated
