We’re getting a baby macaw in a few months from our breeder and your videos are so helpful! You’re absolutely right that there is barely any information when researching for macaw care. Also just baby macaws in general
I just want to say thank you for making this video. We recently brought home a baby Greenwing macaw and the tip about chunkier chop has been a huge help! Thank you for helping us to expand our little girls diet.
Shelby is awesome. I spotted you guys over on Mikey a while back doing the hot pepper challenge! Thought I'd sub after I spotted your link after Paws Claws featured us! Great information video! Always great to see educational videos on behaviour!
This is incredibly helpful, thank you 🙏🏻 Our Baby Blue and Gold is now also called Shelby, she is 15 weeks old and all that you’ve said is so helpful, can’t wait to hear more , things like how to get our baby to like her cage, she has a beautiful large cage but she only goes in there to sleep at night or if we have to go out for a few minutes
Ah wow, welcome to your beautiful Shelby! Getting our Shelby to like her cage was a long process so that's a great video idea! In the mean time make it irresistible for her in there. Lots of toys, things to destroy, foraging opportunities. And train her to go in there, so click and reward once she is in.
Don't reward Shelby biting your nose ... I wonder if macaws can recognize they have bitten too strongly ? I know we humans sense a screem when the bird didn't like something, how about the other way round?
They tend not to bite their own flock with their full strength, but can still hurt quite a bit! She’s never looked bothered about how hard she bites lol
O they know ..believe me they know ..because my bird was been ever so careful with us , my friend who came and rubbed him but smelled of beer when he was 3 months the next time he met him he nailed him..I was secretly delighted..my boy defending himself from a gobshite..so proud ..lol

Hi guys xx
Steamed no way ..I've been wasting so much veg.. edited ..he ate so much this morning..I'm in shock..
How about if you have the same bird that hasn’t flown her awhile life. Can they be too old or out of shape to fly ?
I have a severe macaw (since he was 4 months old) been there, done that, wait till you experienced the "terrible two's"...
how long are they babies for what age are they an adult bird
They mature around 4-5 years of age
@@ShelbyTheMacaw I never knew that!!
That's a great question!!!
