Blue and Gold Macaw

Personality – Macaws are a force to be reckoned with.  Everything about them is big, from their voices to their attitudes.  Even the mini macaws are big … on the inside! Colorful and often raucous, they call attention to themselves even when quiet.  Although, to the uninitiated, macaws seem formidable and may bluster and carry on, those who share their lives with these magnificent friends know that they contain surprisingly soft and loving hearts and sensitive natures.  Macaw people adore their great friends to the very core of their being … and for good reason.  It only takes one gentle kiss from their giant beaks to open the stoniest of hearts.

 

Care – In the wild, most macaws, including blue-and-gold macaws, eat a variety of seeds, plant material, fruits, and nuts. The wild macaw’s diet tends to be high in fat, which is acceptable for a bird that spends its day flying through the rainforest, finding food, nesting, and rearing chicks.

 

Diet – Companion macaws are lucky to have a much easier life than their wild counterparts, but they miss out on the ability to forage for their food, a behavior that comes naturally. Macaws, including blue-and-gold macaws, thrive on a nutritionally balanced diet, such as Lafeber’s Nutri-Berries and Lafeber’s Premium Daily Diet Pellets, as well as fresh fruits and veggies and healthy table foods.
