Young male blue and gold macaw for adoption
Description
We rescued this guy by buying him off someone who neglected him and abused him with the purpose of rehabilitating him and giving him a second chance at life. We took on this knowing we would be rehabbing and rehoming because we do not have the future lifestyle that he currently has and needs.
This guy is just the best. He's young and sweet and just wants your love and affection. He absolutely adores people and needs someone who is home the majority of the time. Since coming to us (we have his full history for future home) he has learnt the fun of trying new things! He has been target trained, can step up, flight trained with recall (hoping he can free fly one day with correct training as he loves to fly), wave, dance, high five, nice to meet you handshake, among tons of others. He's fully flighted and must be flown and trained several times a day in short bursts or he will act out by being louder than usual.
He's a typical macaw so he has his loud moments. He has been trained not to chew on anything but toys and things offered to chew, however he will test future adopter. He will want to see your boundaries and what he can push. He's extremely intelligent and talks.... When he wants to. Loves both genders equally but will prefer the person who spends the most time with him.
Family time is important to him and it's essential he is integrated as a member of the family and that he is the central focus. He's a toddler and he will remain that way his whole life. He's young and will have a long life ahead of him.
Only looking for experienced homes and they will be required to answer extensive questions.
Won't ship, sorry but with current conditions I don't feel it would be good for him.
Would prefer a local adoption.
Price is firm. We paid whatever the jerk asked just to get the bird (which was 4000). We want him to have a home that has the finances to support his active chewing and nutritional needs.
He comes with all his things. Cage, stands, toys, huge bag of pellets, any chop in my freezer and leftover, ect. Also has an outdoor playstand but it's massive and would require a large truck.
Thanks for your interest. Please send me a message with your experience with large birds and macaws. Thank you!
