I wanted to put up a thread with all the growth photos from weeks 1-24 compiled together. This is my green wing macaw, Kalani. I know these photos all appear throughout my other thread, but they're scattered among 24 pages. When I was interested in adopting a baby macaw, I was seeking a week-by-week growth photo album.
I can't thank Paul at eggs-otic parroting enough for all these great photos.

I'm on a wait list for a Greenwing baby and it seems like so long I already can't take it and the eggs haven't even been laid yet lol. Please let us know what bringing home a baby is like and post some pics

Oh my gosh. He is so cute Don. Can I be his Aunt? I want to come and see him. Let's see...when can I come to Baltimore? I will be in the area on the 11th. I can make 4 o'clock work.

Thank you for the pictures. It was nice of you to take us along on the journey but having the photos all in one place one right after each other...awesome.

I hope you took the next few days off.

Wow, over two years since I started this macaw journey and almost two years since Kalani came home. Time flies.

I think they really start getting cute at around 9-10 weeks and from there it just gets cuter

Weeks 3 through 5, he looks a bit like a sea turtle.
