Amazon Parrot Training
May 15, 2008 by petparrots
Amazon Parrots are very intelligent and typically great talkers. Behind the African Grey they are probably the most capable talking parrot. Because of this high level of intelligence they must be stimulated mentally by their owners on a regular basis.
Amazon Parrot Training is my favorite way to stimulate these creatures. If you think about it, you’re not only stimulating your Amazon Parrot but you’re also providing him with great quality time, and teaching him to be a better pet parrot.
Some other ways to keep your Amazon Parrot stimulated is by providing an optimal cage environment. You should constantly be switching out his toys, and providing him with a variety of things to play with. Another option is to create a foraging opportunity for him. This means you hide little treats in his cage or around the house if he’s free to move around. This provides him with entertainment as he searches for the treats he know are hidden.
Amazon Parrots can make great pets but you absolutely must keep them stimulated or their voices might be used for screaming and not talking. If you are already experiencing problems with this there is hope. Start training your amazon parrot and create a better cage environment for him right away. Over time you should notice a big decrease in his screaming.
