Hey Everyone,
I am curious about the behavior of my Amazon parrot. He's a lilac crowned amazon and he adores me but anyone else gets close to him he'll go out of his way to strike at them. I'm curious if this is normal behavior for an Amazon or not. I have no trouble with him, I can hold him, scratch his head, play with him (I'll tug at his beak as a game hehe), I can turn him upside down and hold him ... he'll fly to me, etc. But he's VERY antisocial. However, he does like it when people talk to him, just don't go near him.
So ... is this normal? Is there a way to socialize him?
