Amazona
is a widely respected
endangered parrot breeding
facility owned and managed
by William Horsfield.
The facility is located
just outside Durban on
the east coast of South
Africa.
|
Since
its establishment in 1992
the Amazona farm has grown
and developed into a fully-functional
breeding facility for
an impressive collection
of birds.
|
The primary
focus of the operation
is the keeping and breeding
of some of the rare and
more demanding species
of psittacines although
select waterfowl, indigenous
species of Southern African
Crane (Wattled, Blue and
Crowned) and groups of
small endemic antelope
are also bred on the premises.
|
As a
commercial parrot breeding
facility Amazona is run
strictly as a business
but we never lose sight
of the fact that we have
the priviledge of working
with small and highly
sensitive animals. It
is for this reason that
the wellbeing and optimal
health of the birds at
Amazona is never compromised.
We pride ourselves on
running a highly professional
and successful parrot
breeding facility.
|
We welcome you to the
Amazona website and hope
you find the site both interesting
and informative. |
