Hello everyone! My current exp begins with owning cockatiels as a child and I recently owned a yellow collared macaw that just died.
I was able to pick up a Hanhs Macaw from my local vet for $100! He came with a cage and all of his toys as well!
My questions are as follows:
Should I leave him alone for a few days to allow him to adjust to new surroundings? He likes to sit on your shoulder a lot with no problems...
He doesn't like to be pet behind his head, is this something that could be changed? I thought most birds like that?
My old yellow collared macaw was able to be be brought outside without a harness, is this the same behavior that all macaws have or was she just special?
Any other bonding tips?
Oh, he is 2 years old if that helps.
