Have you tried googling it? I'm sure there must be loads both here and in the states. What about asking around on forums with arboreal topics?

Hi Thomas

I keep my Amazons in the same way as I keep my Green Trees and cycle them in the same way too. When I cool them down I do it by a couple of degrees a day until they bottom out at a night time of 75F and a day time hot spot of 80F. Increase the spraying to stimulate heavy rainfall.


This worked for me. You can keep the male and female together but feeding is very difficult if you do.

and how long do you cool them for when you have the night time temperature at 75f and day 80f.

thanks Thomas

I spray heavily twice a day to keep humidity nice and high (watch out for fungal growths etc though). Cool them off for about two months and they will be at it like rabbits after. Very Happy
