      Thank's for sharing all that you do ! I have had my Macaw for 18 year's. There is a huge amount of difference between your 2 and mine. He does not tear up any thing ! Hardly ever, ever scream's.
      He talk's a heck of alot !
      Intresting enough he speaks English, Spanish & Spanglish !
      Spanglish is part English part Spanish
      He does not like to fly !
      Strange !! He also loves his house " cage".
      He has his freedom in and out. While in he prefers sitting in his house the door is always open and thats his preference! Again strange !! He also wont eat fruit unless I chew it and feed him from my mouth !! LOL !
      Again, thank you both for sharing. 🦜💕
      By the way , the photo is of my Macaw, Safrino.

      Ah, man, these two are so chill compared to my friends pair. She rescued two ~20 year old boys a while back from an incredibly bad situation, and while they are sweet little angels they have been hell for a long time... She had to install a shower into their room (which they know how to turn on, it's quite amusing) as she hadn't had a shower alone in seven years, any time they hear the water run they scream and cry to get in, they scream and sing while they're in the water aha. Theyve been generally "litter trained" which has been a blessing. They try to make their messes in their bin but they do have some accidents still, the boys are well known for pooping on people because they refuse to leave their shoulder
      My friend free-flights them and has them microchipped, though they go around the neighborhood to bum food and play with the crows, they never go too far and come when called but hate to stay within a small area because the crows can go wherever they want to, will get spicy if they can't play tag and go off to see any babies and meet new crows. I've caught them taking their food to crow nests a few times, they're very sweet until you realise that it's inevitable that the crows will learn their french bad-mouthing and start cursing at people in /two/ languages
      I've always seen the macaws having more personality than my rats, they're a lot like flying toddlers with demon feet. They're super smart, they've both figured out different types of doorknobs and the dog doors, they know how to work tv remotes, Nintendo controllers(never give a macaw a Wii nunchuck piece) and will turn their light on/off when they want to go to bed or be awake, they (for the most part) know how to work their window blinds as well. They know how to ask for food and usually know what they want, but there's a few times Hook will beg and cry for a pickle and then be disgusted with you for the night for daring to bring a pickle into his presence and Puck refuses to learn cereal names and it's all "cheermos", but does he mean cheerios, frootloops? Maybe cornpops? He makes us go through it all, let him see and smell and taste and he'll feel it with his feets and rub it on himself while he tries to figure out which is superior lmfao

      @@anyaquezada3440 I've got two more points of essentail information for you (even though you didn't ask ;) )
      1. Don't cook with Teflon pans with birds in the same room. Birds have extremely sensitive lungs. When you're cooking with Teflon pans, particals get released into the air, which are harmless for us, but inflammatory for them (which results to death).
      2. Don't leave doors open when it's drafty. Birds have got low density bones. I occasionaly walk with my bird outdoors. And alot of people have approached me and told me their stories as to how their bird got caught between the door and passed away. Sadly and appearantly it happens way too frequently.

    I love watching other bird families' day in the life/routine videos and see how it compares to ours! I also love how you give the birds independent play time in their aviary during the day. So many people love to say people are bad owners if they have their birds in their cages for any length of time, yet it allows the birds to self entertain and become more confident! My flock are currently having their afternoon nap! 🦜

      Did you train them to fly back to you after full flight or was it just natural for them to fly to you? Were you ever worried that they would fly off? Beautiful birds! Have an African Grey who is such a charmer.

    They are so beautiful flying! I love it! We had parrots, green with yellow crest, living just above our thatched roof place in the Guatemalan forest for several months. They were loud, obnoxious when we wanted to sleep in, but beautiful! These guys lived much further south, but I love to see their beauty!

    You should make more videos like this so people understand that have a bird you need a lot of time, I sleep early because I wake up 30 minutes before sunrise at (5 or 5:30am depend of the month of the year ) because the birds wake up and start singing and my birds they want to wake up to , in Guatemala the fruits and vegetables are fresh and cheap but I go 2 times a week to the market to buy new foods , the veterinarian specialist in birds are expensive , I buy a lot of bamboo every month to make perches and they love to destroy them, they love to take a bath every 3 days, and they go to sleep at in the sunset at (5:30 to 6:30pm depend of the month of the year ),and I have to do this every day...

    The foot stomping is my fav. I've had parakeets, a green parrot mix thing that my ex brought home one day, and a cockatiel. I am buying a condo next year and as I have no pets at the moment, I would like to rescue/adopt a cockatoo. And they also love being on the floor and doing the stompy stompy running around and I just love that sound.
