What you fail to understand is that only a few parrot species can be identified by coloration. For the most part, you either DNA sex them (blood exam) or you surgically sex them (go inside and take a look). Consequently, owners often fail to "guess" the correct sex of their birds. Sometimes its years later when a presumed male lays and egg and then everyone says "Wow, its a hen!" Only the birds know for sure without the tests.

It is a female, Blue and Gold Macaw.

Do they bite? And what is their tolerance level?

[parrotland]

@aahmedusama00 /All birds will bite on occasion. Most won't bite often unless they are provoked. I had 12 larger parrots and could handle all of them all of the time with very few bites a year. I would say less than 10 bites total a year. My macaws were the least likely to bite in my flock. As a rule, the bigger the bird, the less likely they are to bite. They are more confident.

@computersexpertable

I do not understand what you are asking.

@aahmedusama00 All parrots are different and it really depends on how they're raised. The key is respect and keeping them mentally healthy by trick training them and using foraging toys as well as healthy food. Make sure to never compare the bird you want to someone pet bird because it may be completely different :)
