Birds We Breed
BLUE & GOLD MACAW
They are one of the most striking birds you can see, with the yellow underbelly and aqua-blue wings and back. They are very considerate and clownish in their personalities. They talk good and make excellent pets. Like all big birds, they should be provided with wood to chew and also a wide variety of mental stimulation. They usually grow to be 33 inches and they are usually quiet, considerate, and easy to please it is no wonder these birds have earned their popularity as one of the most desirable family companions in the Macaw family.
SCARLET MACAW
The Scarlet Macaw is probably the most strikingly bright and beautiful of all the macaws. The bright yellow band on each of the wings against the red of his body and upper wing, and the royal blue of the lower wing make a striking contrast. They may look similar to Greenwing Macaws, but there is some key differences both in apprearence and temperment of a Scarlet. Scarlets have a bare facial patch of white and has yellow feathers on the wings. Compare that to a Greenwing who has feather lines on the facial patch and no yellow band (they have a green band) on the wings. Scarlets are not as big as a Greenwing, but has a long slender tail which makes them appear so elegant. They are a little high strung and sensitive to quick movements, so an experienced Macaw owner is needed to have a successful relationship with this beautiful bird.
GREENWING MACAW
If there is one word to describe a Greenwing Macaw, it should be ‘gentle’. They are called ‘gentle giants’ for a reason – they are the second largest of the Macaw family, but considered the gentlest. They are very personable and lovable and everyone can play with them. With all that personality and their beautiful Ruby colored body, green wings, and individual facial stripes they will steals your heart away and you’ll not want it back.
HARLEQUIN MACAW
Absolutely breathtakingly beautiful. Harlequins are known for their stable, sweet temperaments, devotion to their owners, and stunning beauty. Harlequins have bright orange chests and striking clear intense color. They have the devotion and size of a Greenwing coupled with the sweet gentle nature of a Blue & Gold. They are very intelligent and cuddly and would make really good pet. They are little bigger than Blue & Gold’s but a tad smaller than the Greenwing Macaws. They size and temperament also depends on the male partner of the parent pair.
