: Hi Cynthia:
: I have two Amazons, one 4 1/2 year
: old Yellow Nape and one 25 year old
: Red Lored. The yellow nape, Max,
: has been with me since he was a year
: old. He's very well adjusted, he is
: friendly with everyone in the house,
: but he definitely is more bonded to
: me. When I first got him I was
: living with my fiance and he was
: equally bonded to both of us.
: Amazons are great birds. So are
: African Greys. I think as long as
: you and your husband both spend
: equal time with him and show equal
: amounts of attention, discipline,
: feeding time, quality time, etc. all
: should be fine. Amazons are
: definitely more easily adaptable to
: things though. And Max is equally
: clever to any African Grey I've met
: (I volunteer at a bird rescue so I
: see many, many birds). Max, my
: yellow nape, talks and sings A LOT
: and he's only 4 1/2 years old. He
: never ceases to amaze me. I would
: definitely advise you to look more
: into an Amazon.
:
: Good luck!!
