Married couple having similar behavior and attitudes. Many times they do the same thing.
However after a while you can discern the husband's masculine traits and the wife's feminine behavior.
Multi-color; Blue, turquoise, green, goldenrod, faces white with black streaks.
Not for laymen family pets. These two are for care by professional breeders only. One of their squawks is turkey like.

The coloration and markings of looks very similar to the couple in this photo.
One of my photos has a similar scene.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia:
Parrots, also known as psittacines (pronounced /ˈsɪtəsaɪnz/),[2][3] are birds of the roughly 372 species in 86 genera that make up the order Psittaciformes,[4] found in most warm and tropical regions. The order is subdivded in three families: the Psittacidae (true parrots), the Cacatuidae (cockatoos) and the Nestoridae.[5] Parrots have a pan-tropical distribution with several species inhabiting the temperate Southern Hemisphere as well. The greatest diversity of parrots is found in South America and Australasia.

Characteristic features of parrots include a strong curved bill, an upright stance, strong legs, and clawed zygodactyl feet. Most parrots are predominantly green, with other bright colors, and some species are multi-colored. Cockatoo species range from mostly white to mostly black, and have a mobile crest of feathers on the top of their heads. Most parrots are monomorphic or minimally sexually dimorphic. Extant species range in size from the Buff-faced Pygmy-parrot, at under 10 g (0.35 oz.) in weight and 8 cm (3.2 inches) in length, to the Hyacinth Macaw, at 1.0 meter (3.3 feet) in length, and the Kakapo, at 4.0 kg (8.8 lbs) in weight. They are the most variably sized bird order in terms of length.

The most important components of most parrots' diets are seeds, nuts, fruit, buds and other plant material, and a few species also eat insects and small animals, and the lories and lorikeets are specialised to feed on nectar from flowers, and soft fruits. Almost all parrots nest in tree holes (or nestboxes in captivity), and lay white eggs from which emerge altricial (helpless) young.

Parrots, along with ravens, crows, jays and magpies, are some of the most intelligent birds, and the ability of some parrot species to imitate human voices enhances their popularity as pets. Trapping of wild parrots for the pet trade, as well as other hunting, habitat loss and competition from invasive species, have diminished wild populations, and parrots have been subjected to more exploitation than any other group of birds.[6] Recent conservation measures to conserve the habitats of some of the high-profile charismatic parrot species has also protected many of the less charismatic species living in the ecosystem.[7]

  • With more experience you will know how to handle birds with appropriate touch.

  • Seems to me that you are the one that needs experience. Keyword for you is Breeder, In it for the money, not for the proper care and handling. Grabbing the bird by the tail because you can't take the the time to handle them properly. You know they could be handled in a different manner. You just don't care.

  • @gilligan67 It is a person I know. He has raised birds for 20 years. He loves them. Shows them much affection. Sharing tongues and click click sounds. The tail grab only happened once that I every seen. The bird was going to escape to a difficult location. The birds totally trust him, even though the birds have strong streaks of independence. I noticed years ago that birds and fish adopt personalities like their owners.

  • and you, up above me^, vidprop is it? breeding pairs are bonded, they are no longer pets and never will be again, if this jack#@@ is seperating them to have human time, I have NO DOUBT that is contributing to their stress and surprise, their plucking... he is the equivalent of a puppy mill, don't defend him, you sound as stupid as he does....

  • you are so full of sh&* healthy???? they both are clearly plucking which is an obvious sign of stress and tail pulling? lucky for you you didn't yank a bloodfeather... I have hatched & handfed large birds for over 25 yrs & never have I had birds that plucked or that I let run around a field...bet your birds are banded. Want to know how they are caught? locals cut down the trees that hold the nests, killing the parents & even some of the babies & ship the rest here... your a saint, NOT

  • why are there so many feathers missing on the female??????

  • Also it is a well known fact that in the bird breeding society that pretty much every breeding bird needs to not be in a close relationship with a human. The bird needs a very solid relationship with it's mate so it can produce offspring successfully. To much human contact can offput the natural cycle of breeding.

  • gilligan you obviously don't understand the behaviour of these birds...
