Oh one more thing on good behavior in the pet store. When the amazon sat on your shoulder and was well behaved did he step up directly to you from the cage or perch or did the pet store owner/employee get him to step up for you? One reason why I ask is because we have had several owner surrendered birds that when their owner told them to step up to any of us they went calmly and was very well behaved but as soon as we got them home or to the rescue they immediately turned into little trolls, LOL! We have been able to work with them all and get them back tame but they wanted to test us for the first week or so (some even longer) because they were fearful of their changes and new surroundings. This was not the birds fault or even our fault just the fact they were not accustomed to the new circumstance and we had to be patient with them during that time.
