Hello everyone, Just came across this site and wanted to introduce my new addition to our family. Just purchased a Calico Macaw. Beautiful colors I might say. I've owned 2 previous birds which were a cockatoo and a red headed conjure. Here is a pic of my baby. We named him Tobias. He is 3 1/2 months old.

Hi, Your baby is beautiful. I'm new here too, but I think it is great, and I hope you enjoy it as much as I do.

Tobias has outstanding beauty. What a treat it will be to be his guardian and watch him mature. You have joined a very good forum with lots of good people should you have any questions or concerns. Thanks for sharing the photo.

Hello. This my first day and I'm nearly as new as a parrot owner (servant?!) My husband and I are senior citizens, but are still working in full time jobs. We were given an African gray parrot about 3 weeks ago by a lady who also had a female African gray (FG) and a cockatiel. She said she had raised the female from the beginning,and so the female was jealous of Gonzo, who is a male, and would try to hurt him. She was given Gonzo who she said was 5 or 6 yrs. at the time and kept him for 10 yrs. He is banded and she said his first owners lived in CA, but that is all I know about hus past. He is too thin, but according to the vet we took him to (a bird spe******t) his xrays and blood workup show no problems. I googled to try and learn if bird banding is traceable and that is how I found this site.
