Welcome to the wonderful world of the Pionus Parrots.  The Pionus is on the rise of
popularity,  as more people are discovering what absolutley, wonderful pets they make.  
The hidden beauty of these parrots is their unique quietness.  They are also quieter than
Cockatiels, as I have both of these breeds to compare, and cockatiels as a rule are quiet by
nature as well!  This is not to say that they never make noise, they do and they can talk,
too!  Pionus' are not usually noisy when kept as pets, but they may chatter some but they
do not scream and screech.  

Pionus' make the best pets, as they are very loyal.  Pionus parrots do well for those who
work full time jobs, as they don't continually thrive on your undivided attention.  They play
well on their own with the toys that you provide.They are happy to see you when you
arrive home, so make sure you take them out after changing your work clothes!  They
travel well, and the don't freak out as other parrot types. Don't be alarmed if they get
nervous or upset because they will make a wheezing noise which sounds like a respiratory
problem, but that is just a Pionus trait!
 

For most parrots in their natural environment, their way of communication is the instinct
to squawk once or twice, which is usually done once in the morning and once in the late
afternoon.  They call their buddies to find out the latest gossip since they don't  have cell
phones!!   

Talking ability for the Pionus is not real clear.  Some tend to be higher pitched than others.
Their voice sounds somewhat raspy or garbled, but a Pionus  can put a few words together
to form a small sentence. The Maxi is probably the best talker of the Pionus species.  All of
these species seem to understand what you are saying when you talk to them once they
learn routine words. Pionus are so much fun.

When seeking a parrot for a pet - look no further.  If you ask me, the Pionus as a pet is
rated at the top of the list! A Pionus will go for love and scratches but they won't go postal
if you don't give them undivided attention like some parrots do.  They won't even scream
and screech to get your attention either.  In my personal opinion, for a smaller parrot, the
Pionus is the BEST all around parrot to inveset in, and will give you many years of love and
affection, unconditionally.     Priceless......

Again, Pionus Parrots are becoming more popular as people find out about how sweet
and personable they are, and that they are now available in the United States.
The Maximilian is probably the most popular due to availability and price.
The Blue Head and Duskys are the next in line for wanted parrots because the
coloring on the "Blue Headed Pionus" is breath-taking, and the Dusky's for the absolutely
gorgeous breast colors and big chocolate eyes. The Dusky's look like an
artist's palette.  The price range for Pionus Parrots range from $600 to $1500.
Other Pionus are the Maxi, Bronze-winged, the White cap and Coral Bill Pionus.
At Feather Focus, we have Dusky's and Coral Bill Pionus.   

Personalities of the different Pionus are much the same. Pionus are absolutely
gorgeous and make wonderful pets. They are devoted and love to play and interact with
all members in the household as long as each person spends some time with them.
They are not just a one person pet which makes them a great choice as a family pet
or an individual pet. They are so versatile.

Pionus' are calm birds and don't usually get upset like some other birds.
These fine parrots are a joy to hand-feed and raise.  If you have any questions, please
inquire if you are a serious buyer, as I also have a full time career outside the home.

I believe Pionus Parrots rank at the top pet because they so easy going and have smooth
delightful personalities that makes them Simply the Best!

One of my Associates has recently produced a Lutino Dusky Pionus. She is
so gorgeous and will be featured in one of the Austrailian Magazines soon. My Dusky
parents, are from the same parents who produced this Lutino Dusky Pionus.
Who knows, maybe Feather Focus will get lucky and produce a Lutino Dusky some day!
For those of you who are interested in the price of a Lutino Dusky, they are around
$30,000. Like I said, the parents who produced this first lutino dusky, are also the parents
to one of my pairs of Dusky Pionus'.
We shall see what the Good Lord has in store for Feather Focus!
