Amazons
We will
tend to appear repetitious and you will read over and over, lots
of toys, entertainment, routine, things to chew, nutritious
food, space to play outside the cage and time to play
independently.
For our
Amazons we prefer a good parrot seed mix enhanced with sprouted
seeds and grains, root vegetables such as carrots and sweet
potatoes, fruits and vegetables. Sunflower seeds and peanuts
work great as special treats. As always, begin early introducing
new foods so they will grow up being receptive to new things.

Panama Amazon
|
Panama Amazon:
Definitely one of The Beak’s favorites, the Panama Amazon provides
all the talking ability of the Double Yellowhead in a smaller, more
manageable size (12 to 13 inches). They are a gentler Amazon and
will amaze you with their ability to mimic. Don’t stop at talking
though, Amazons love to sing! This parrot will delight you not only
with its talking ability, but with its responsive and appropriate
injections into your daily life and conversations.
Provide it
with plenty of room and a place to play on top of their cages.
Lots of toys to engage their high intelligence and ingenuity and
things to chew, chew, chew. As with all highly intelligent
parrots, provide a routine for your pet. This includes, bedtime,
mealtime, playtime and time to be with you.

Blue-fronted Amazon:
The Blue-fronted Amazon will delight all with its colorful
appearance, definitely one of the most beautiful of all the
Amazons. Excellent talking ability and generally mild
personality makes it an excellent choice for a companion bird.

Blue Crown Mealy Amazon
|
Blue-crowned Mealy Amazon:
Often referred to as the "gentle giant," the Mealy Amazon is one of
the biggest Amazons (approximately 16 inches). They move more
slowly, with deliberation. Their talking ability is not as complete
as the Panama or Blue-fronted Amazons, but sufficient to delight
their owners. Encourage lots of interaction and talking, the Mealy
Amazon has a very loud call and you will want to divert this form of
communication as much as possible.
