Yellow-crowned Amazon

General

A pleasant little fellow! This Amazon makes an excellent pet. They have a friendly nature and excellent talking abilities. They love people and are easy to tame. They could make a family pet, providing that everyone gives it equal attention.

They can be a bit loud, but their affectionate nature will surely make up for it. This Amazon is also a chewer and should be kept busy with wood and leather to chew on or else it might be a bit destructive.
