Most would say that with almost no thought I think. As humans most of us understand the awesome responsibility that having a kid brings to our lives. Owning a Blue And Gold Macaw is in fact quite the same experience. When comparing the two from birth through the toddler years there really is not much difference. Why would owning a Blue And Gold Macaw compare so closely to having and raising a child? Because with some notable differences (kids being human and Macaws being animals) many of the responsibilities are the same. The responsibilities are so closely related primarily due to the fact that the Blue And Gold Macaw possesses an intelligence and an understanding comparable to children ages somewhere between two to four years of age. **End Summary** Topics: Blue And Gold Macaw]]> Blue And Gold Companion]]> companion]]> kids]]> Blue And Gold]]> child]]> children]]> toddler]]>]]> About the Author: ]]> Ryleigh Cantrell has owned his Blue And Gold Macaw (Shadow) since 1978.

Please stop and think before you buy your child that Blue And Gold Macaw or any Macaw for that matter. A companion such as a Blue And Gold Macaw is a commitment. The commitment will be long term. A long term commitment with a Macaw can mean thirty to fifty years and even longer. Even for the well settled person it is difficult to commit to such a long term relationship. For the Macaw owning the bird has to be purely a labor of love. Nothing short of that will do the experience justice. A large Blue And Gold Macaw is just not the type of animal anyone should use to begin teaching their child responsibility. Many well settled adults find the commitment very difficult at times.

Keeping Pet Birds Quieter

Wed, 28 Oct 2009 04:31:13 -0400

Parrots, if you know anything about them. You know they can be messy, loud and beautiful birds. The parrots can't help this. It is what they are by nature. The large macaws are able to rattle your windows. Almost all birds will vocalize early in the morning, sunup and again at sundown. They will do what their species does sometimes for a half hour give or take a bit. Some sing some screech and some squawk. Some species call out to locate their flock or be sure where their mates are. Birds will vocalize as warnings when predators are present or they have become alarmed about something. It only makes sense that pet birds will do the same things. An alarmed bird can become exceptionally vocal. The moment you leave his sight he may call out. Or your bird may get loud in the morning to let you know the suns coming up. These are normal behaviours and should be expected. If the bird is a large parrot they also can be very stressing, irritating and annoying to you and your neighbors particularly if excessive in volume and duration. **End Summary** Topics: bird]]> large bird]]> pet bird]]> macaw]]> parrot]]> large parrot]]> foraging]]> foraging for food]]>]]> About the Author: ]]> Ryleigh Cantrell has owned his blue and gold Macaw (Shadow) since 1978.

Make Feeding Your Macaw Easy Top Suggestions

Mon, 19 Oct 2009 20:47:12 -0400

Humans eat things we like and not necessarily things we should. Feeding your macaw or any parrot is simple. Your birds diet just as your own diet should consist of many different foods and many should be used in moderation. Feeding your macaw or parrot a variety of fresh wholesome unprocessed foods should do the trick. This includes either cooked or raw. I keep a good high quality commercial parrot mixture in my birds cage at all times. I change it out every morning with a fresher helping. Everything else I feed I consider to be treats or supplemental. I don't feed treats until I notice my bird has been into the pellet mixture. My B & G macaw can be stubborn, occasionally he won't eat any mixture until we have had our morning workout eventually he will eat. Nuts and sunflower seeds I consider to be treats. I feed them sparingly one at a time. Generally as rewards for this that or another thing and once in a while because I'm a nice guy. Macaws need a little more fat, nuts and sunflower seeds are how my bird gets his. **End Summary** Topics: Macaw]]> parrot]]> bird]]> food]]> feed]]> diet]]>]]> About the Author: ]]> Ryleigh Cantrell has owned his blue and gold Macaw (Shadow) since 1978.

You have been on your feet all day not even a moment to simply perch and rest. You feel like your poor feet have walked you around the world and back again. Now if you will take just a moment and imagine its bed time and you have to sleep standing up and on your feet. Pretty miserable thought isn't it. Can you imagine life like that? It isn't to difficult to imagine the foot and leg problems that could incur? Your parrot faces that exact problem. As bird owners it is up to us entirely to do everything possible to insure the comfort and safety through options to our pets. Your bird, the wild version is free to roam where and how he wants. Wild birds are able to pick their perches according to their wants and needs. However this is not so for the bird living in the living room cage. His perches are all up to you. Your pet bird needs options just like the wild birds. Things To Consider About Perches. 1. The Circumfrence Of The Perch: Pay attention here. If the birds feet are to flat the perch is to large. **End Summary** Topics: parrots]]> bird]]> perch]]> perches]]> macaw]]> large birds]]> pet bird]]> pet]]>]]> About the Author: ]]> Ryleigh Cantrell has owned his blue and gold Macaw (Shadow) since 1978.

For me there just isn't anything funnier than those weight control advertisements on t.v. Who wants to lock themselves into spending hundreds of dollars a month to lose weight. It really isn't necessary to do that. There is a better far more fun and rewarding way to lose belly fat. I call it "Buying and caring for a Macaw". Honestly it is far more fun and rewarding to own a macaw than using a diet and exercise program. Losing weight on my program just happens. It happens without fancy diet programs or drugs to amp up the metabolism too. Owning and caring for a macaw is the best solution ever. Its funner (don't think that a real word) but it is. My owning and caring for a macaw weight control system is easy and rewarding. Its a cure for depression. It's inspirational and gives a person another purpose in life. My system will without thinking cause you to lose unwanted belly fat without a conscious effort to do so. Here is how it works for me. I go to bed each night, the last thing I do is check to be sure my macaws (shadow) cage is latched. **End Summary** Topics: macaw]]> parrot]]> bird]]> birds]]> large bird]]> macaw parrot]]>]]> About the Author: ]]> Ryleigh Cantrell has owned his blue and gold Macaw (Shadow) since 1978.

My Thirty One Year Old Toddler Is A Blue And Gold Macaw

The first few things to be considered before anyone buys a large parrot Not the least of which is living the majority or your life with a child, infact a toddler. One thing almost no one mentions about taking macaw parrots as pets. 1. For a teenager there is a fairly good chance a macaw could out live you. 2. If you are in your thirties it is pretty much a given a macaw will out live you. These large parrots live from 30 to 50 years. Of course just as with our own lives much is decided on the manner in which the bird lives and is cared for. Betting on your bird living 40 to 50 years wouldn't be a stretch. This means because macaws can have the intellect of a 2-3 year old human child you could be living with a thirty, forty, fifty year old 2 year old child. I didn't bring this up to dissuade anyone only to warn them. Done right it can be one heck of a wonderful life for both. **End Summary** Topics: macaw]]> parrot]]> bird]]> birds]]> large bird]]> macaw parrot]]>]]> About the Author: ]]> Ryleigh Cantrell has owned his blue and gold Macaw (Shadow) since 1978.
