Panama Amazon???
I am currently awaiting for my Panama Amazon to hatch from a breeder. My boyfriend and I would like to get a Panama Amazon before the baby arrives. We found an ad on craigslist for a Panama in a nearby city. However, we are unsure that it truly is a Panama. I think it may have too much yellow, not a dark enough shade of green (could be camera exposure though), and the beak is not correct color for Panama...??
 Can someone please help? The link to the ad is below: Panama Amazon

It looks like a yellow crowned amazon, i heard panamas are more expensive than yellow crowns, maybe the owner is trying to pass it on as a panama to make more money or maybe he was misinformed about the true breed, but to me that looks like a yellow crowned...this happens alot at the feed store near by the man is selling a "blue front amazon" but in reality its an orange winged amazon.

looks like too much yellow for only a one year old. I say Yellow crown - allot of red on the beak too.

The Amazona Society has a good article about identification - "Variations in Panama Amazons".

That one looks exactly like my Oscar, our 8-1/2 year old Yellow Crown Amazon. Oscar is really a great bird though. He is outgoing, speaks somewhat well, using his words properly, and has an uncanny sense of humor.
