The Blue Fronted Amazon is predominantly green, but they have blue feathers on their forehead – hence the name. They also typically have yellow feathers on their face, and on the top of their head.

They enjoy human interaction, but they will often only bond with one person. They can also keep themselves amused when you aren’t around, provided that they have sufficient toys to play with. Many of them will become really good talkers, but some of them won’t talk at all. However, regardless of whether or not your pet becomes a talker, you can virtually guarantee that he will be good singer and mimicker, and he will enjoy using this talent frequently – you have been warned!

If you like a fun and playful parrot, the Blue Fronted Amazon is a good choice of pet for you. They are born performers, which explains why this species is so often used in bird shows.
