I have a single male harlequin I was going to hold back, but never paired. Friendly and social. $1500

Possibly interested in trades but would have to be for a single bird, no pairs... Blue throat macaw, Hyacinth macaw, buffons macaw, or any of the black cockatoos. Does not need to be tame or young, just healthy

Hyacinth Macaw

The Hyacinth Macaws would be ideal for people who have had some previous experience with birds as they need to be taken care of pretty well. As their wings span up to 4 feet, they need adequate room to stretch and as such may be kept in large cages, but it would be a good idea to allow them to have an hour or two of play time in a day. This improves their muscle strength and gives them a healthy lifestyle as a whole.

Born with one of the strongest beaks, adapted to break sturdy nuts that are available in the South American region, these birds ideally need large and strong chewable toys to keep their beaks and jaws strong. They are instinctive in hitting their beaks hard on such toys, and it would be best to use a large toy with a leather covering to be used for the purpose. Also, they have a wide range of sounds that the vocals can produce, ranging from loud screeches to soft purrs.

Another problem that arises due to their strong beak is the choice of cage. Any ordinary cage would be broken down into pieces in no time. As such only strong stainless steel cages are suitable. The stainless steel is hard and durable for the purpose, and though the initial cost may be high to own such a cage, it would prove to be much cheaper in the long run.

The diet food that is fed to the bird needs to be highly specific. They have a very high metabolic rate allowing them to digest fats very easily. They tend to feed on nuts from palm trees that are available in the wild. But when owned as pets, they could be fed almonds, cashews, pistachios, Brazil nuts and walnuts. In addition they could also be fed with fruits, vegetables and other pellet based diets.

The Hyacinth Macaws are suited to live in company. They need human comfort and attention on a regular basis. If left alone they could grow wild and start screaming and screeching excessively. They could also live in harmony with other birds, provided they are introduced to them at a young age. They love to bond with humans and can connect with their owners very strongly. The attachment develops fast and is not easy to let go off.

If trained with the right care and attention, these are one of the most suitable birds to pet. Regular play gym, fiber-rich diet, sturdy play toys, impact resisting cages and regular interaction is required to keep them healthy and have a long life of up to 60 years.
