MACAWS: SINGLES
Bubba and Rocco are male Blue and Golds who both lost their long-time partners. They've decided to hang with each other. They are big, loud, boisterous, and active. They'll make a great pair for someone with room for their hilarious play and a desire to watch them act like macaws. They both can be handled, WITH CARE but are happy left on their own.
Durango is currently living with a very shy female named Marley that needs to stay with him. Having a lady friend has made Durango very aggressive, and this pair can only go to someone who is prepared to give them a large enclosed space and let them be wild parrots.
This is TC. She's a big beautiful female harlequin, age unknown. She's tame and likes to be with people, but she has seriously disabled feet and legs, and will need a careful keeper who can prepare accomodations for her special needs. TC was placed previously, and had to come back through no fault of hers, or her keeper's. She is very noisy.
We placed Zappa almost 8 years ago with a very good family. Changes in the family's work travels have made it necessary for him to come back to us. Zappa is a 22 year old male ruby macaw, a hybrid of a scarlet and a greenwing. His plucking issue is old, and he won't get back his feathers, but we don't care, do you? Zappa is tame and friendly with people he likes, and will hang out with you all day if you're his friend. Come see if YOU'RE his friend...he's a good bird.
Fred is an ex-breeder, about 30 years old. He's got some plucking, and an air sac leak that doesn't do any serious damage. He's totally untame and is very strong and active. He needs someone who can give him a big cage and leave him to be a bird...someone who just wants to give a bird that has had a rough start in life the opportunity to be safe and learn trust.
ZAZU
Zazu (YES, WE HAVE THREE ZAZUS) is an 8 year old ruby macaw (scarlet/greenwing cross), Hybrids like this are big and beautiful, but can be a handful. Zazu will bite to defend her cage, her food dishes, or just out of excitement. Not for the timid or inexperienced. She's bonded with Rocky, another hybrid, and another tricky bird to handle. This pair is spectacular, but will need a lot of room and a careful handling. Both have histories of aggression toward other macaws, and will need a home where they can be physically kept separate from other birds.
