[xBoogieStarx]

He does well! check out our channel for some training ideas, if you want. Ours can use ropes to lift items, determine colors, and many other things. How long have you been training yours? Does he get excited when you train him? haha

my little sister wants to name one Blu O.O

[josephinehallmusic]

Now THIS is the tricks I LIKE to see a bird do. It's not forced to it. Love it! It's a beautiful bird =)

[flaviothebrazilian]

In Brazil you can buy one with just $600

[Khalore]

@flaviothebrazilian in Brazil you can not buy hyacinths as they are protected and endagered.

[Khalore]

@flaviothebrazilian wrong. they are protected in brazil and illegal to sell/buy.

[Khalore]

wrong, they are protected in Brazil and illegal to sell/buy. The only private owners in Brazil are those that were grandfathered in when the law took effect.

If you saw a Hyacinth Macaw for 500 dollars, then please.. tell the idiots who buy my babies for 12000 dollars where to pay and get scammed. Spix macaws considered extinct because the only known that exist are actually pets only & none that are known are breeders. I sale my hyacinth babies for 12k a peice weaned pellet, and 10 k and piece weaned fruit and thats a good deal. Females and males normally sale for the same price.. its only a 45 percent chance you can hatch a hyacinth egg anyway.

[jeroen725]

@jlbjennn26 there are still about 80 spix macaws in breeding programs, the biggest is in quatar with around 60+ spix. There are probly a few spix in private collection but many of them are bought by the owner of the breeding program in quatar to breed with them

[AGirlWoWLover]

too cute =P

[Skeleflexcrazy]

how much was he

[copperchan]

@Skeleflexcrazy they usually sell anywhere from $8,000 to $11,0000 depending on which breeder you buy from.

[TJDeadkid]

@copperchan holy crap lool thats a decent car lol

[copperchan]

@TJDeadkidYou can get a great car for the price of a Palm cockatoo, those go for $15,000-$18,000 O.O I wonder if you can get a loan to buy one lol

[TJDeadkid]

@copperchan holy crap lol and im looking at parrots right now and $250 looks pretty damn good lol (indian ringneck)

[SummerGalLongIsland]

You have a beautiful Macaw, & obviously spend a lot of time with him.  That is lovely to see! Many people get large birds & don't realize that they need a lot of attention & care since they are such social creatures. Birds falter if they don't get socialized properly. Hyacinths are "gentle giants" & very trainable. I'd love to have one myself someday, but right now my African Grey is all I can handle! He is very intelligent & such a talker, he needs a lot of attention too.

[watercatfish]

@SummerGalLongIsland i totally agree! i have an African grey too and she takes ALOT of work, it really makes me mad when people who hardely know anything about birds go and buy the most hard to take care of bird the macaw. People who already have this bird say it is alot of work but most people will still just go ahead and buy one without thinking first becasue they are pretty birds...

[cihore]

hyasinth macaws will sell for over 10k in most places

[namasterchoma]

ths s the one of the most rarest parrots in world...i wonder how ppl get they as pets.....:/

[ForeverMyBudgie]

@TheMuffinBurgler Yes, they have breeders, but Hyacinth Macaws are endangered right now. You can't just easily get 2 male and female all of a sudden so they can breed it's really hard finding them

[kirandeepkaurdhillon]

do you know what is the name of the parrot that is for 500 dollars in surrey bc?

[kirby8555]

He/she has really nice flight feathers and under feathers

[sophiesnake]

Looks like he's smiling ^^

[Robby334]

how much is a hyacinth Macaw cost in USA and are they on CITES 1 ?

[fhqwhgads2u]

@Robby334 they are endangered in the wild, so imports are illegal, but they are still for sale if the pair breeding are domesticated. They go for $9000-$12000 for males, and $15000-$18000 for females. From what i know the girls are more because the cluches are small (usually 1 or 2 babies) and the chance of one being a girl is about 15%.

[BoGuest2571]

@fhqwhgads2u no they don't i've seen plenty online for $500

[kssx33]

@BoGuest2571 those ppl are all scammers. trust me, i nearly learned the hard way. they'll try and get money from you to ship them to you and then once they got it, will never contact you again.

[MPSecare]

WOW what a wingspan

[DreachFhoula]

@MPSecare if hes full size.. thats aprox. a 4ft wingspan

[Universal0Studios]

Annwww

So cute!!

Peace.

[PTBSlovak]

how and where did you learn those tricks? im getting Hy macaw next weekend and i need to learn how to train him??

[timcocksmoker69]

I don't know if MrHatefull was truely being genuinely serious or not BUT the clicking sound you hear is actually from a "clicker" that is used for training purposes. All it is is a case with a small metal sheet that clicks when pressed and released. You can find more information on this by doing a search for "clicker training".

CamDX most bird owners make their own stands and platforms but you can also buy them at most any pet store that carries bird cages and supplies.

[ToshAroundMac]

Thank you, I was wondering too.

[Superiorpakfan]

whats that clicking sound ur doing before giving it treats?

[MrHatefullness]

that clicking noise is a little container that she keeps the treats or pellets in, its kind of like a tic-tac holder!

[BoGuest2571]

@MrHatefullness are you fuckin retarded or what?!

[CamDXCrunner]

wgere do you get the pattot stands or platforms?
