Hahns Macaws for Sale
The Hahn’s macaw has become a rather popular pet bird owing to the entertainment quotient they bring to the fore. Ideal for first-time bird owners, one may never wish to graduate to another bird because of Hahn’s endearing ways. They are slightly larger than a cockatiel and marginally smaller than a conure.
The entertaining and comical characteristics of the Hahn’s macaw parrot, complemented by its small size, which entails easy maintenance, have made this bird quite a popular pet. They are quite loud, though, so they might not be the best choice for adoption if you’re living in an apartment with neighbors next door.
Housing
A sizeable cage with dimensions of at least 2.5’x3′ should be provided for the bird to live in. However, they do outside of the cage for at least 2-3 hours a day, interacting with the owner. If your budget permits, then it might be a good idea to go for a playpen, play gym, or a sturdy parrot perch. They like to chew, so an adequate number of wooden chewable toys and branches must be provided to keep boredom at bay and enhance enrichment.
Temperament & Behavior
The Hahn’s macaw has on it one of the best temperaments that you can hope for, even by macaw standards. It is very social and ideal as a pet for a family. Their intelligence and inquisitiveness to learn are something to behold. They like to be handled by their owners but may sometimes develop bonds with one member of the family and get irritated to the point of being nippy at the sight of another, but this is rare. To avoid this, make sure your bird is well-socialized with plenty of people.
Your mood, at most times, will be mirrored by your bird. Your happiness will make the bird’s mood happier, and vice versa.
Your bird will learn to speak and do tricks rather well as long as it is trained as such from a relatively young age.
Feeding
A diet of high-quality seed and pellet mix should be given to your bird regularly. Fresh fruits and vegetables must be given daily.
Care
Your Hahn’s macaw must regularly be bathed to keep the plumage’s brightness at an optimal and maintain feather health. You may use a bird mist or a shower sprayer for this purpose, and the water should be lukewarm. Wings should be cut just enough so that that bird can glide onto the floor. Beaks also need to be trimmed if they become deformed or overgrown.
Various types of perches may be available at pet stores which will help in keeping the nails trimmed.
