Hello there, I need advice..
I recently bought a blue and gold macaw from a breeder (about 3ish months old) the problem is that I am inexperienced at the moment and I had little to no help from the breeder at all which I initially thought was gonna walk me through the whole process of raising...
Hello everyone! I'm new to this website, but that is not the case yesterday I brought home a blue and gold macaw with all my allowance, and I named him/her Eleven. (Yes I named it from stranger things my favorite show). And now I put it on my stand (because I don't have a cage yet) and speaking...
Jacob my blue and gold macaw is finally on YouTube. I've been wanting to put his videos on YouTube but the videos from my phone camera came out sideways. I converted them with VLC but they don't upload to YouTube. If anyone knows of a better free converter that doesn't have adware or viruses...

I love animals more than anything, but I didn't know I was going to become such a crazy bird person! I've had smaller birds in the past, like budgies and doves, and while we spent time together, they always had companions of the same species to hang out with, so I was more along for the ride...
Hi, i live in the Lower state of Australia, Tasmania, and as you can believe there are next to no breeders(respectable breeders) of macaws here.
At this time i myself or my family is not ready for the bird but will be in months time.

Hello I am Francisco and use to have a Lilac Amazon which was my closest pet I have ever owned, but one day while she was on my shoulder the screen door shut and she got startled and flew away. This was over ten years ago. I am now thinking of owning a Macaw and now researching on what would...
Murphy is about 28 years old and in excellent health. She has been well loved and cared for. Unfortunately, family circumstances have changed dramatically and I can no longer keep her. I am in the Los Angeles area, and she has a lovely new indoor-outdoor custom stainless aviary, which will...
My sister works at a vet that has been housing a Blue and Gold Macaw for the past three years. She's a rescue case that was dumped by an abusive family but her quality of living has not improved much since being left at the hospital.
She's not socialized and has plucked her chest bare. She's...
Hello! My name is Savannah, and I am quite new to this forum other than using it for research prior to me getting Kona, but this is my first formal introduction!!! I had researched macaws and birds for months and finally purchased Kona, a 13 year old B&G from a lady rehoming her birds out in...
So I was out searching CL for a cage for my Parakeets (I dropped their new one and broke a corner) and someone posted a B&G in my little town and was giving him away. It was JUST posted so I called her. The poor parrot was in a nasty cage, his chest is plucked, wings are chewed and he lived on...

Hi everyone, for the past few years, we have been dealing with pantry moths that seem to be coming from the bottom of our Blue and Gold Macaw's cage. I assume it is likely due to the seeds that fall onto the bottom of her cage, and they usually disappear for a while after cleaning the cage...
Hi All,
I am new to this forum, and would like to extend greetings to all members.
I have an issue with my Blue and Gold Macaw, that I am hoping someone may be able to shed some light on. About a year now, we noticed his beak starting to erode, with the "decay" not proceeding further than...

So! Ive got an eclectus parrot, hes a male, and hes about 16 months old. His name is max. He's absolutely beautiful and such a sweet heart. Hes been around cats before, which he is not scared of...
Hey guys! So from Gilligans old owner, he was on zupreem. She said that he was on it because the vet suggested it for his feathers because even though he has all his feathers, they're not very clean or nice looking. I got a different type of zupreem then the old owner had (simply because I could...
Hi, so even tough I've done TONS of research on b&g macaws i cannot figure out what this is. This is only my 3rd day having him, he's 24, b&g, says ow and what and eats grapes, apples, melons, and nuts. He's been doing this for the past 2 days, like he makes this sneezing sound and moves his...

Hey guys! So far Gilli has been doing well. He's so talkative. Still not able to handle him, I'm a little nervous to try. Any tips on that? Also, when I try and take his food bowl, he starts screaming and trying to bite and grabbing the food bowl and kinda throwing it around. Definitely gets...
