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 $750 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 $25,000. 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!
