If I get a call from someone looking for a large bird…about 80% of the time I’m being asked if I have a macaw OR cockatoo. Obviously they did not do their research. They are completely different in many ways. This is just a small sample of their differences. And the subspecies of each have different pros and cons too. It’s important to do your research! If you want a cockatoo? Which type? Same question for macaws. And remember all birds…have their own distinct personality! They are individuals. Period. One umbrella may be super loving and a great talker…while another is more independent and doesn’t talk.

Macaws and cockatoos are not good apartment, condo or townhome birds! They are loud!!! If you have an HOA you may want to get their permission prior to bringing one in. As much as you think you may be able to keep them quiet…it’s impossible. It’s who they are.

PLEASE DO YOUR RESEARCH PRIOR TO BRINGING A BIRD INTO YOUR HOME! IN THE END IT MAY SAVE YOU HEARTACHE AND
THE BIRD STRESS AND CONFUSION FROM BEING REHOMED!

It's that time of year when we may have our bird on our shoulder and just leave it there to perch. You may hear your doorbell, open your front door, and the next thing you know, it's outside. Your parrot can also be easy pickings for a hiding hawk just waiting for you to step outside with your beloved parrot on your shoulder. Best practice is to put your parrot in its cage or a secure carrier if you wish to take it outdoors.
