Description:
Blue and Gold Macaws are among the most strikingly
beautiful of the Macaw Family. They are a full size Macaw
and can learn to talk with a general vocabulary of about
15 or more words or expressions. Although some Macaws are
one-person type birds, the Blue and Gold is right at home
in a family type situation also.
Care and feeding:
A roomy cage is required unless the bird is to be let
out for extended periods. Many birds can spend most of
their time on a play pen or parrot perch. They eat a
variety of seeds, nuts, fruits, commercial pellets,
as well as the same nutritional foods humans eat.
Distribution:
The Blue and Golds' natural habitat runs from eastern
Panama in Central America south across northern South
America, extending to Bolivia, Brazil and Paraguay.
Size - Weight:
A full sized macaw, they can get over 2 lbs.
Lengths up to 86 cm (34 inches).
Social Behaviors:
They are a typical macaw. The Blue and Gold is
known to be a good family type bird. Even so they an
be cranky at times and may prefer only men
or or only women, etc.
Breeding/Reproduction:
The usual clutch consists of two or three eggs
which incubate for about 28 days. The babies will
fledge after about 3 months in the nest. Feed the
parents plenty of greenstuffs, corn-on-the-cob, carrots,
and fruit laced with food supplement while they
are rearing the youngsters.
