Trace was retired to our home and little did I know just what great talkers Double Yellow Headed amazon really were. Trace had been passed around and was an aggressive biter. I have no overwhelming desire to hold my birds or to be bitten, so Trace and I worked it out. He had a big play top cage and I would let him loose, if he didn’t bite me. Almost a perfect solution.

Trace was on his cage on the screened in back porch and I was busy. We had a group of workers doing some massive landscaping in the back yard. Trace apparently got bored. Every time the men sat down he said “Time to go to work”, so the guys got up and went back to work. This happen several times. Finally the men called the owner of the company to complain that I would not let them take any breaks. When the owner came by to talk to me, I offered to sell him Trace as a new supervisor for his work crews. Our work had been done in record time.
