Does anyone know where I can get a male Venacious mate for my Jackie? I think she's ready to mate (3-5 years old), because everytime I sroke her back, she leans forward and flutters her wings, and makes a sqeaky toy noise... ;D

I have a Yellow Naped Amazon but I have never heard of a Venacious Amazon. Do you have a pic?

I found this web site. www.hillcountryaviaries.com/ They breed the Venacious Amazon. I have read that a permit is required to have them and you have to get special permission to ship them from state to state. The Cubans run about $1500 US dollars - They are endangered birds in the wild and due this all sales of Cuban & Vinaceous Amazons are usually done within whatever state they were raised in.
I have only been able to find a picture of a Cuban Amazon. www.ppatchparrots.com/images/adults/cuban_250.jpg It seams that some aviaries are trying to preserve the species. John I just found more pics on the site that the other pic came from, Venacoius Amazon www.ppatchparrots.com/vinaceous.html These people also breed them. www.ppatchparrots.com/index.html
