chezron Posted August 11, 2011 Share Posted August 11, 2011 Brutus and Pancho have cages right next to each other and have never attempted to fly to each other's cage. We have had Pancho for two months. This may still be a honeymoon period, so to speak. Pancho has been unfailingly sedate, polite, well-mannered, calm, sweet, and gentle. He steps up easily and gladly eats anything offered to him. He is so gentle when he takes food from my hand, or fork, or spoon that I am amazed. I even got him to say "Hello Pancho" before I give him a treat. He does show a little grumpiness when it is time for bed, but WOW- big deal! Pancho watches the antics of Brutus, the grey, all the time. He seems fascinated by him. As for Brutus, he learned the name "Pancho" in an hour and put together, "I love Pancho" all by himself. I think he REALLY does though. It turns out Pancho loves showers and spreads his wings and acts all goofy when getting sprayed. I think his love of showers has influenced Brutus to relax a little more during shower time. I thought this was a good sign - one day something spooked one of the birds and he flew off, followed by the other two. I felt like this was "flock" behavior and a sign that they saw each other as flock mates. Anyway, I sense that pancho has a "fun guy" inside of him and I hope Brutus brings it out. If he doesn't that is okay. It seems that the Amazon and the Grey were switched at birth since Brutus is such a nut and Pancho is so cautious. What has been your experience with rehomed amazons?

Ray P Posted August 11, 2011 Share Posted August 11, 2011 Cricket is my rehomed amazon a blue front and has been with us for two years and 10 months and she is about 15 years old and Corky my cag has been with us all her life and she will be eleven in Dec. They both get along very well and I think like you that my zon and grey were switch at bieth. Corky my cag acts more like a zon and Cricket acts more like a grey. Sounds like things are going well for your two and I think it will stay that way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
