I have a request of you to check out my channel ? We're currently editing it, but once its finished they're will be bird videos on, Macaws, Parrots, Conures, Parakeets, love birds and more! They're will also be fun facts, Links & Pages to info on different species of bird, and helpful tips to choosing the right bird for you! Pass this on please!
@78kokka well, when macaws and parrots are in the wild, they have alot of use to need to fly, such as flying away from predators. But, in captivity, they dont have much reason to fly unless its training, or possibly they dont want to be held. Out in the wild opposes a bigger threat to them than in the wild. So climing is just fun and easy for them most of the time.
@78kokka It's a mixture of- they aren't pressured for survival like in the wild, so there's no need to hurry.. and.. Also, when climbing, they some times climb laterally along sides or up which would take much more energy to fly through than climb through.
Your actually being a little rough on them the noises indicate that as well, while they are friendly extra care does need to be shown even if they are 'used' to you. Birds DO NOT like being touched on their wings that is why they spend hours preening after.
You obviously take care of them but you dont have the gentle touch that should be given.
Doesn't it scare you to put your hands in their beaks and get really playful with them?! In addition to having those big sharp beaks, they also have 30% of their muscles in their heads to crack Brazil and licuri palm nuts with ease. Imagine what even a little nip could do to your hands!
@kingjayapala From what I know, they are the most playful and peaceful type of macaw, of course, rough handling COULD also cause them to bite. They seem to tolerate the playing, and if they wanted to, they could break his hand
I absolutely LOVE these birds. I wish I had enough money go down to Brazil and buy a few million acres of the Pantanal and Cerrados ecosystems and hire natives to protect them instead of trap trapping them so that they could be around forever.
@kingjayapala Oh man, it's nice to see that there are like-minded people about conservation of the species. That's actually why I'm not so opposed to breeding - better to keep the species SOMEHOW than to have them die out forever in the wild. :c
Actually I still oppose breeding because domestication ruins the species. It has been found that cockatoos who are hand fed as young chicks do not know how to mouth feed their babies when they have kids. In training them and breeding them to better be able to serve at the pleasure of their owners, they are quickly becoming as far apart from their bretheren as dogs from wolves. Also birds are smuggled in to breed. Only a very ethical breeder should ever be trusted.
-.- Are you fucking kidding me guys? Do some research on these birds. They shouldn't even be pets at all. And good luck actually owning one unless you're rich.... and have no conscience
@CrazyPuddingCup From a private bird breeder. Its not impossible to find them in the US...its just crazy expensive. Hyacinth Macaws are extremely endangered, and there's a lot of hoops you have to jump through when getting one. Keep in mind, also...Hyacinths cost around $10,000. And last I heard, you have to sign papers that state that you agree to breed your hyacinth to keep population up. These birds are native to Brazil, and because of illegal exporting, have wound up on the endangered list.
Totally agree...Scarey, how many people think they could just go run to the store and buy a couple-geeeze! Don't the nuts they need cost around 250.00 a month?
It would also be good to volunteer at a parrot shelter to get to know how birds become once they're grown up. One should see how a cockatoo proof house looks and whether or not one is willing to tolerate the biting, screaming, and all the rest while empathizing with the bird about what its like to be behind bars without ever having committed a crime and to be a social creature frequently kept in solitary confinement.
But in all seriousness, as a long-time budgie owner, it is absolutely crucial that people realize that a pet as intelligent as a parrot is truly a commitment. Most of these birds have lifespans longer than dogs or cats, and "experience" is difficult to measure on the scale of "start with" and "end with". It's really more important about the journey, and each bird brings its own remarkable ways.
@marciii411 off go the fingers. I was an owner of a Scarlet Macaw and it bit off my small index finger. The first thing I did was put the parrot away in the cage (they are worth more than my finger lol), and then I wrapped my finger in a tissue to be surgically reattached in hospital. You do have to be careful as they can really do some damage. Hyacinths are generally more docile however.
@ThatDelhikid wicked i justed looked them up (id heard of them but never looked into them) its what blue is off rio! i thought it was a hyacinth with they yellow dropped for asthetic apeal. there were even fewer black footed ferrets and we brought them back ( they were harder to breed too) so th spix's have a shot
@linky7980 from 8,000 to 10,000 dollars, but many websites ion the internet have Hyacinths for free adoption. I wouldn't recommend you to buy one from the internet because it may be fraud; but i have seen many for free adoption. However these animals require space and time devoted to them, so they are suitible for anyone
What are you talking about? These birds are 12-18 thousand dollars. And you can't get them at pet stores. Because of new bird trading laws, these birds are extremely hard to find in the market...
@MsKellerd If you're buying one of these guys for $20 it probably has the plague and you're saving the seller's life by taking it. They do cost tends of thousands of dollars. You should also never buy a parrot from a petstore unless they can provide documentation from a licensed breeder. Otherwise it's almost guaranteed to be wild-caught, and that's not only a wild animal but it was taken illegally. That's the sort of thing that almost drove these animals extinct.
@MOSMIO There is a similar looking macaw that has white areas around its beak, blue feathers and a yellow belly. Those are often called "blue and gold macaws" and are a far, far more common species. These hyacinths are far more rare and precious.
Aww my Salmon Crested Cockatoo did the same thing. :) And for everyone saying he's bothering the bird, if the bird wanted to, it could rip his finger off no problem. Playtime!
They act like dogs!!! hahaha that's awesome! I would love to have one, but I'm only 16 and I still have a long way to go before owning a parrot that huge,
@goldencockatoo Thing looks pretty formidable, what would happen if it gets angry and bites at full strength? Probably take a finger of, I wouldn't want kids around it
@reptilebreeder101 please do a LOT of research on parrots. They aren't like dogs and cats at all. They need much much more attention and care, and these birds can live for longer than humans so remember it's a lifetime commitment !
@reptilebreeder101 No. Parrots usually bond to a single person, the one who handles them the most. They tend not to like anyone else and will bite. The ones in this video are very gentle but that beak CAN cause some real damage, especially if a young child is pestering the animal. You can break them of that habit and make them friendly to people in general but it takes a ton of work and expertise.
Birds just aren't like mammals, or reptiles for that matter.
Will the cost of Hyacinths bred in captivity in the U.S. ever fall down in price range to that of Greenwings, Blue and Golds or Scarlets? More places breed them than before but they still cost $12,000 plus. Some places still charge $20,000 for weaned babies.
@dcentral most likly not there are vary few unrealted birds to make the poupulation and people are VARY greedy and would never want to lower the price
I work at a zoo..and we have a hy macaw named sercies...me and her play like this every morning. she is the sweetest bird in our collection..she looves to play peek a boo with me.
im absolutely terrified of these only cause of their beak it scares the hell outa me its like one bigass knife and its a ticking time bomb waiting to cut your fingers off
hey i've pet one of theese cockatoos at a bird store in scarsdale NY its called bird jungle and she was really sweet towards me and i was the only one who could actually pet her, are they naturally nasty birds or are they very sweet?
TO THOSE WHO WANT A MACAW or EXOTIC BIRD: Birds live to be +80 yrs old and need daily care & social interaction or they go crazy. They BOND with the owner like a mate & need smart owners to care for these amzing exotic creatures. They love to play. Always keep your hands clean. They also are messy, poo and molt, periodic replacement of feathers. Besides the flight color feathers there is the down feathers that gets all over. Wounderful to interact with for adults not kids.
yes, people often buy Parrots not thinking about the LONG term commitment. Daily cleaning of cages & perches, AM & PM of good nutrition/diet, love and attention most of the day, etc etc. I often think these birds should not even be captive for our enjoyment. Very difficult for them to get the attention they need under captivity as they do in the wild. However I am a Macaw owner and have had parrots for over 30 yrs. Just know they need near constant attention.
Those beaks can almost bite a finger off, but they are gentle creatures. They tend to be one people birds and actually bond with people for life, and they live longer than most people.
@gmcjetpilot lol those beaks can bite a broomstick in half and open macadamia nuts let alone bite a finger off! hover, these birds are too gentle to even be tempted to do something like that! (like you said). :)
It is amazing my chestnut fronted macaw can peal a grape so delicately and gently, but as you say can crack nuts. The beaks are so strong yet light, like a modern aerospace composite material. The white skin around the eyes is so soft.... very loving creatures.
Some of the things those birds are doing would have scared the hell out of me, you must really know what youre doing to be able to handle them without losing fingers! haha
Aw they look so fluffy :)
Moria1408 1 day ago

Do you keep them in the same cage? Have you bought them together?

Those beaks are meant to splinter their wooden toys, yet he just sticks his hand right in them.

Good observation as you are correct. One of the few living decendents of dinosaurs per the Discovery Channel.

The Hy Macaws are my favorite parrot, they are just so beautiful, are they your birds in the video?

@CubbyPaw They were our birds, and have since been placed in two different loving homes.

Their beaks look a little long... is that okay for them? Most Macaws can't eat comfortably if their beaks are that long..

@Pop12646Okami Hyacinth macaws have longer than average beaks, so yes, it's normal.

TO THOSE WHO WANT A MACAW or EXOTIC BIRD: Birds live to be +80 yrs old and need daily care & social interaction or they go crazy. They BOND with the owner like a mate & need smart owners to care for these amzing exotic creatures. They love to play. Always keep your hands clean. They also are messy, poo and molt, periodic replacement of feathers. Besides the flight color feathers there is the down feathers that gets all over. Wounderful to interact with for adults not kids.

yes, people often buy Parrots not thinking about the LONG term commitment. Daily cleaning of cages & perches, AM & PM of good nutrition/diet, love and attention most of the day, etc etc. I often think these birds should not even be captive for our enjoyment. Very difficult for them to get the attention they need under captivity as they do in the wild. However I am a Macaw owner and have had parrots for over 30 yrs. Just know they need near constant attention.

Those beaks can almost bite a finger off, but they are gentle creatures. They tend to be one people birds and actually bond with people for life, and they live longer than most people.
gmcjetpilot 1 year ago
@gmcjetpilot lol those beaks can bite a broomstick in half and open macadamia nuts let alone bite a finger off! hover, these birds are too gentle to even be tempted to do something like that! (like you said). :)

It is amazing my chestnut fronted macaw can peal a grape so delicately and gently, but as you say can crack nuts. The beaks are so strong yet light, like a modern aerospace composite material. The white skin around the eyes is so soft.... very loving creatures.

hmm that's strange, here in Holland they are forbidden to sell because it's a specie where there aren't much left of.
glennosh 1 year ago
@glennosh Are you certain? They are CITES 1 but breeding programs have been very successful.
goldencockatoo 1 year ago 10
@goldencockatoo Yes but it's very often that we (Holland) as a country are already further in the future with important things ;)
When a specie is in the position of dying out, the politics determine that there can't be haunted on species or they can't be selled.
