I am a new parent of two 6 year old "proven" military macaws recieved from a bird expo in orlando. They were breeder birds so they need to be trained, and I dont want to breed them and hand feed babies. They both eat nuts from my hand (or nuts I hold through the bars of the cage) and are not aggressive. I have done lots of research about macaw care, and I have a good idea of the time and patience required to care for these birds.
I know not to give them salted nuts, and I am going to order some nuts from nuts.com. Has anyone else ordered from them? Can anyone suggest a better site to order from? I have picked out walnuts, hazelnuts, macadamia nuts, almonds, pecans, and possibly pistachios (raw or roasted?). Are these nuts ok for them?
