Can't say I do, but I would assume that their price would fall between the $2,000 to $6,000 range.

Considering how rare and expensive large macaws are in Australia, I'd be surprised if there was a market for hybrids. I know that many Australian birds are hybridized, though.

Apparently I was wrong. Now, I still don't know the price of hybrids, but here's what one breeder in Australia says.

I know a few breeders now breeding hybrid Macaws, Catalinas around the $8k ea to $10k ea Camalots $10k ea to $14k ea Harlequins $10k to $15k ea, Milgolds $10k to $12k ea these are young bird prices.


Someone else mentioned that the hybrids aren't nearly that much, but I don't live in Australia, nor do I know any breeders in Australia breeding hybrids, so I don't know for sure. Can only go buy what these people say.
