Hi everyone! I am new to the forum, and I think I had a baptism of fire into the world of Amazon Parrots! I am helping my Dentist out while I look for a nice new job. His hobby is breeding Amazons. I bet you know where this is going! In November I was presented with 3 tiny babies to feed and, of course, fall hopelessly in love with! They were about 2 weeks old, I hand reared them and they have turned into beautiful 4 month old sweethearts! The Doctor wants me to take Jake home and love him because he is one of the few birds here without a mate, there are about 20 breeding pairs here. Doctor is very surprised at how tame I have got the babies, to me when a bird is hand reared, it is this tame. He has decided to keep the 3 of them, so I get to take them home and enjoy their different personalities!
