MACAWS |
|
| Husbandry: | To keep macaws it is reportable in Germany and there are legal rules for the keeping facilities and conditions. |
| Keeping macaws only in living rooms or on stick is not permitted anymore. A cot with an attached aviary is required. Depending on the number of bird also the minimum size is specified. | |
| To give these nice and intelligent birds more possibilities for movement and activities we have made our area bigger then required. | |
| Before you will buy macaws you should consider that they can get very old. | |
| Cot: | Macaws are normally try to gnaw nearly everything which is possible. For the macaw cot you should avoid as much open wood surfaces. Free edges have to be protected with a steel or aluminium profile, otherwise they are gnawed down soon. |
| At the inside the room should be tiled. Then it is easy possible to keep it clean. Another benefit is, in an emergency case it is easy possible to disinfect the room. | |
| Feed: |
Macaws are very selective regarding the feeding. To
this subject you can find a lot of literature, which you should reed
before you procure such a bird. Macaws are really waste a lot of feed. |
| Breeding: | At the moment we are not breeding macaws and we don't have any activities in this direction. |
