    The Start Of My Journey With Kiwi

    I was given a macaw for my birthday, January 26 that I was very unprepared for. Kiwi is my adorable harlequin macaw. Her birthday is August 13 and she is about 6 months old. She has her own room with her cage taking up 95% of the space. I want her to have the best life possible so I'm trying to...

    Shower w/ Birds Do and Don'ts?

    Ok so, as some of you might know, I was given a macaw as a surprise gift (Warning: NOT A GOOD IDEA) but either way, I read you can take showers with your birds. I also know birds are particularly sensitive to scented things. If I have scented shampoos should we get rid of them? Are there certain...

    HELP! Clueless Me Needs to Help A Macaw!

    Ok, so let me say this right off the bat, I'm 15 and my b-day was yesterday. My eccentric uncle decided it would be a great idea to get me a macaw. I have no idea how to care for her and I need as much help as I can get. She is not being well taken care of right now; my uncle knows nothing about...

Here's what I mean: with purebred dogs, for example, breed characteristics are pretty much "standard" across the board, and...

    In search of a reputable breeder

    I've been online looking for a long time now searching for a reputable breeder. But, every time I feel like I'm getting close to finding one, it's a scam. I currently live in Alaska in the Air Force. So, not too many breeders here for a macaw, none that I've found actually. I'm looking for a...

    New Macaw Owner

    :blue1: I just got my bird last night :) a 10 year old Harlequin Macaw named Valentino. Super sweetie but I'm a nervous wreck! I've had parrots growing up, Double Yellow Head, African Grey, a Yellow Nape and a Parakeet, but never a parrot of Valentino's size. A friend of mine was going to...
