Hi there, I wanted to get your opinion. I have an African Grey parrot, and I also used to have an Eclectus that, unfortunately, passed away. After some time, I wanted another bird, so I called a "breeder" in my country and asked for a recommendation; I was looking for a calm family bird, and he recommended a Double Yellow-headed Amazon (*Amazona oratrix*). Later, I came across information online that didn't quite align with that, but I assumed he was an expert, so I took his advice and got the Amazon. It’s been about a year now; the bird is very stubborn, but I love it dearly and don't want to give up on it. I’ve devised a diet plan for it, it spends several hours outside the cage at least once a day, and it has plenty of toys and space, yet it simply refuses to approach any of us. It doesn't necessarily bite, but it often attempts to, and I don't know what to do; it just isn't adjusting to us at all. We all have experience with parrots, but I’ve never had one like this. I also think the "breeder" made a mistake; the bird was a year old when I got it, having spent that year growing up in a single cage with about ten other parrots. Naturally, I reported the breeder because I felt the way he kept them was improper.
