My severe macaw won't stop "yawning"

Mariar · May 19, 2015

My new rescue won't stop yawning.....what does that mean...is it something bad? I mean she does it all the time...should I be concerned?.. Doolie use to do it when tired but not all the time...I can't afford another sick bird but will do what I can to save her...please help

I really don't know. Someone with experience will come on.
I can say my birds don't yawn.

Your good!

I stand corrected!

It's usually a sign of a sinus infection if it is excessive.

Make sure she gets plenty of vegetables because it could be caused by a vitamin A deficiency.

I'm gonna go with the deficiency she only ate wild bird mix of cracked corn and sunflower seeds, for who knows how long. Thank u

So today she actually ate sweet potatoes,broccoli with honey,raw spinach, and granola with chia and flax seed..I'm tapped out due to dollies vet bills right now so I thought I have to act quick and get her diet changed over..she also loves apples and watermelon..but only if I take a bite first.

Sounds like she is gonna be a wonderful family member! If she continues to resist the boyfriend, he is the easiest of the two to replace!

Just an oh wow! Fantastic!

Mariar · May 21, 2015

thank you! It's actually a lucky dog, dog kennel. It's 5'6" tall x5x5..it's got open spaces and a plastic mesh tented top. And all we did was put thick square wood climbing sticks in there gives my bird something to chew on,and hung toys, on the bottom we used industrial air conditioner drip pans that I cover in paper for easy clean up.
