how much money is it for an amazon parrot at a pet store?

Question by Popay: how much money is it for an amazon parrot at a pet store?
I have about 0. And I’m heading down state soon. I want to know how much one is to see if I should buy one from someone online. If it’s around 0 I will just wait until I go down there to get one(becuase those are probably healthier, and better). If not, I found one online I could buy. Thanks!

Best answer:

Answer by Susan
I would be one online Your don’t really know what you’d be getting. Price really depends on what part of the country you live in, as well as, the condition of the bird, it’s coloring and the muted colors.
Usually you’ll be looking at anywhere from 500 to 1,500.

The Joys Of Owning A Yellow Headed Parrot

Copyright (c) 2010 Kaye Dennan

One of the most popular pet parrots is the Yellow Headed Amazon parrot and what makes this so amazing is the fact that in its very own natural environment it is a threatened species. This is a wonderful talker and this is one of the reasons that parrot owners desire their company.

It is the continuing growth of commercial developments that is threatening the Yellow Headed parrot in its natural environment. Forests are being cut down for materials for building, or to clear the land for development to take place. The rate that land in the coast regions of Mexico and further south where the parrot resides, is being cleared is astronomical when you think of the forest that is left. There are fortunately, some domestic yellow headed parrots that have escaped from captivity and are reproducing around the more tropical regions of America in the south and this is helping to keep numbers alive. Still, let’s talk about the parrot itself.

The parrot is easly recognizable with its bright green body and bright yellow head. On the bend of its wing there is a touch of bright red and also on the outer region of the wing. The flight feathers are tipped with a blue-black color and the longer tail feathers are bright yellow. A Yellow Headed parrot is usually quite easy to pick even though there are some slight variances in color.

Although the yellow parrot is well known for its talking abilities, we have to accept that although most will talk, there will be some that will not. Generally speaking they are a fun parrot to own as a pet as they are very active, like to be let out of their cage and are great companions.

Taming a yellow parrot.

The Yellow Headed parrot has a lovely nature and is very easy to tame and train to talking and to do tricks. They need repetitive actions to be able to learn to talk and to do their tricks but they learn easily and remember well.

Toys in their cage.

As these parrots are extremely active, it is best to make sure that there are plenty of toys in their cage or aviary and some are swinging toys so that they can play with them when left on their own. Toys hanging on strings entertain parrots for hours.

Another feature for their cage is to have several rough branches in there so that they can chew on those as they love to do this if they are a bit bored.

Size of the yellow parrot.

The usual length of a full grown Yellow Headed parrot is about 15 inches which is a good size if someone wants to own a larger parrot than say, a budgerigar. At this size the parrot is easy to handle, easy to house and does not do too much damage as it flies around the house.

Pet parrots can be lots of fun, but if you want a happy, healthy parrot it is important to know how to look after him in the best possible way. They love learning tricks and being interactive with the family.


My amazon parrot looks like its shivering?

Question by Jessy: My amazon parrot looks like its shivering?
My pet amazon parrot every once in awhile looks like he is shivering but i cant tell if he is actually cold or just releasing tension in his feathers. I heard that birds huddle up close when they are cold and he isn’t doing that, and if he is cold what could i do for him to warm him up other then raise the temp in the room because i’ve done that.

Best answer:

Answer by taylor
It could be seizures. If you haven’t had the parrot for a while, it could be getting used to it’s new habitat. Also, it could be unhappy with it’s habitat, causing it to have seizures. I’d take it to the place where you bought it to see if they have any ideas of what it is. Good luck! :)

Saving Yellow-naped Amazon Parrots in Nicaragua – ENGLISH

Paso Pacifico’s latest educational video, Lora Nuca Amarillo (Yellow-Naped Parrot) addresses the serious problem of parrot poaching in Central America. Though once abundant in tropical rainforests, the illegal pet trade and habitat destruction have caused Yellow-Naped Amazon numbers to rapidly diminish. This video, completed in January 2009, will be screened nation-wide throughout Nicaragua in an attempt to educate Nicaraguans about the threats these parrots face, increase conservation efforts, and improve local attitudes towards wildlife.
