Blue & Gold Macaw

San Antonio TX

Description

Dna male and microchipped (I have paperwork and tags). Age unknown. He came from a pet store that his previous owners had surrendered him to because he was plucking and didn't get along with their other birds. He is still barbering and possibly plucking but has grown fuzz back so he seems to be doing better. He has potential to be trained and is more likely to take to males. He likes to hang by his foot, will wave, say "Want some?" when you offer him a treat, "Go night night" if you disturb him when he's sleeping, and will sometimes mimic a phone conversation he heard his previous owner have. He hasn't seemed to have a problem with my Amazon or cats, but he wasn't fond of the dog and he doesn't like the conures. Because of his plucking/barbering, I will only rehome him to someone who has experience with special needs and/or large birds. He does get agressive, he does scream and he will bite. I'm going to be honest and say I got in over my head when I bought him. He is my first macaw and my first emotional special needs bird, and it's not fair to either of us to constantly stress each other out. Rehoming fee is two thousand and includes cage, new crape myrtle branches for perches, bowls, toys, food, and travel cage. Email if interested and I can answer any questions you have.
