Common questions
How much does a White Fronted Amazon cost?
Most White Fronted Amazons listed on BirdBreeders.com in the last twelve months were priced between $1,800 and $2,400, with a midpoint around $1,800. That is drawn from 88 real listings by breeders on this site over that period, not an estimate. Price varies with age, hand-feeding, DNA sexing and the breeder's location.
How long do White Fronted Amazons live?
White Fronted Amazons typically live 40-50 years in good conditions. That is a long commitment for any household, and worth planning for before buying rather than after.
How loud are White Fronted Amazons?
Loud. Noise is the most common reason parrots are rehomed, so it is worth being honest with yourself about your home, your neighbours and the hours you keep before choosing a species.
Do White Fronted Amazons talk?
Some speech. No individual bird can be promised to speak, whatever the species is known for, so buy for the company rather than the conversation.
What size cage does a White Fronted Amazon need?
A minimum of 30in x 24in x 36in, and wider matters more than taller - birds fly across rather than up. Treat any minimum as a floor rather than a target.
Are White Fronted Amazons good for a first-time owner?
Some experience needed. Ask any breeder directly what they think of the match - a breeder who talks you out of a species is worth more than one who does not.
Do White Fronted Amazons produce a lot of dust?
Low. It matters more than most people expect for anyone with asthma, and it is worth raising with a doctor before buying rather than afterwards.
