The Yellow-naped Amazon, also referred to as the yellow-naped parrot and golden-naped Amazon, is a large parrot species within the genus Amazona. It is mostly green except for the yellow feathers on the back of its neck, for which it was named. Juveniles are entirely green until they are a year old and begin to develop their yellow coloring. Yellow-naped Amazons inhabit semi-arid woodlands, arid scrub and savannas, mangroves, forest clearings, forests along rivers and swamps, and sometimes second growth in agricultural areas.

IUCN Red List Status: Critically Endangered

At Parrot Stars, we prioritize education, welfare, and responsible parrot ownership to help ensure every bird finds and thrives in a forever home. Before taking home any parrot, we provide comprehensive guidance on proper caging and setup, positive reinforcement training, household safety, nutrition, and enrichment. Parrots in captivity are still wild animals with all their natural instincts. Your overall success and experience with any species of companion parrot is greatly impacted by positive reinforcement training. A parrot’s behavior reflects both the environment it lives in and the training it receives.

All of our hand-fed babies are hatched and raised in our own breeding facility and weaned onto a diverse, high-variety diet. Our parrots are never clipped and are fully flighted.
