Our Birds

The parrots have been in our family for years. The Green wing macaws came from a divorce situation. and they were a breeding pair in a small cage. We built a large enclosure for them and had natural branches and country music. They were not provided a nest box as we did not want babies but they laid eggs on the floor anyway.  The eggs actually hatched and after the second baby died on the floor, it was decided to try to hand feed them. They did very well and are full grown now. The mom Macaw has since passed away, so all that is left is the dad and the babies. The dad is named T-Rex and his son is Sunny. 

The African Grey is in his 20’s and is named Shadow.

The Blue Front Amazons are sisters and are named Shy and Jasmine and they are also in their 20’s.They like to sing and dance to music and love watching TV on the children’s station.

 

Birds live a very long time and are very intelligent. They need a lot of enrichment to keep them happy and healthy. They are more than a lifelong commitment.
