There are many of them in private hands in Europe. All are not breeding well though but some pairs are quite prolific. Probably inbred captive population. Friends of mine that breed in Sweden them say they are like big Cyanoramphus-parakeets.
There were 144 captive Horned Parakeets legally kept in the Czech republic at 30th June this year (based on count of valid CITES licences held by private breeders).
