Hello!!
I'm new to this website, and I thought I could use some advice on a decision I've been wanting to make. I am a minor, and I have been wanting a macaw. I have owned birds in the past and can say that I am pretty experienced with handling parrots, so owning a large bird is not my concern. I do virtual school, so I am home a lot of the time during the day besides going to work and hanging out with friends. I have a car and am able to drive, so I would be able to take the macaw places for outdoor training and enrichment
. My parents seem on board with it besides the fact that they're worried when I go to college they'll have to care for the macaw for the first year. I plan on going to a college where you can live off-campus, meaning I'd be able to take my parrot and other pets with me into my new house/apartment. I am willing to take the time to save up enough money to buy everything for the bird, including the bird itself. Unfortunately, I live in a state with no rescues to go and see what it's like to be around macaws and their personalities. I have the room for a large cage/aviary or even just a room itself in my home.
Any advice/feedback would be great!![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
