Yes, they do not seem to have a monogamous pair bond or be territorial like most other parrots. So they tend to like everyone and do not defend their territory like some macaws and Amazons. If acquired young they learn to love being held and scratched much like a cockatoo but do not seem to demand it. Vasas make more noise during their spring breeding season, with the hen doing most of the calling.
Tame birds have more of a seasonal speech pattern, talking less in the non breeding season.
With vocalizations not like any other parrot, they evenhave some odd whines like a cat. They are not louder than macaws or most Amazon Parrots. Baby Vasas at weaning are very jumpy but grow out of it. They have evolved to grow and wean at one of the fastest rates of all parrots, probably due to some natural predator that preys on them at the nesting stage. These birds have a strong natural fleeing response.
