how long have you had him? give him a few days to settle in its normal for a bird not to eat normally for up to 2 weeks in a new home. especially not a baby bird

Hi Jessie,
About 1 weeks. I received him from airport last Monday.
Some birds aren't meant to be caged, their feathers are just too bright...

No significant improvement. But someone told me that Palm doesn't eat a lot actually.
He is stay in a room with 1 amazon and 1 grey. But in different cages.

Actually my captain lives with several DYH amazons.

You lives in Auckland? Next month, I will fly to New Zea and Fiji.
