Recently, a yellow crown was put up for adoption at our local SPCA. We went today to go see him. I had just made a giant batch of chop this morning and wanted to bring some to him because I only ever see pellets and seed in the bird dishes when we see any birds there. So, when I went to see him he was obviously nervous but I got down and started talking and singing to him. He came over to check me out. When I asked if I could take him out, he was walking around the top of the cage and easily stepped up and let me give him all kind of head scratches. He even seemed to nuzzle against me a little. I am totally new to amazons and their body language but what are the signs that a bird has chosen you? I absolutely fell in love with him.
Side note: Our SPCA has him priced at $800. I find that really high - what do you think?
