hi all
my name is vicki and i am new. I am blessed to have a six month old blue and gold named carmen she is a bird we rescued through a freind we found out that some maniac tried to set fire to her. I am doing everything i can to make her calm and feed her well we have had her just over 8 weeks and i am now able to touch her head and belly and feed her by hand she is also starting to talk , Any advice is greatly recieved looking forward to getting to know every one xx

Welcome to the forum, and thank you for saving this poor angel! I have worked in Animal Welfare & Rescue, and have known animals that people have set on fire. What a horrible thing to do! I cannot imagine how someone can even think of doing that. There are a lot of Macaw guardians here, so, search our Macaw section for lots of useful information. And, again, bless you for helping this baby.

OMG

That is so sad, who could do these things!
Thank you for saving this baby, I'm sure some Macaw owners will be along soon.
Just keep doing what your doing, building trust and establishing bond is definately the right direction.

Bill, this happens often? grrrrrrrr
