Scarlet Macaw parrots

$670.00

Scarlet macaws (Scientific Name: Ara macao) are probably the most vibrantly colored of all macaws. They have a wide distribution, and their population numbers, although on a decline, are still relatively high. Their appearance makes them hard to resist as pets, but they can prove to be a handful for first-time pet owners. In the hands of an experienced pet bird owner, they can be a friendly and social bird. Scarlet macaws are large birds and, accordingly, will need large cages to live in. Dimensions should be 3’x3’x6’.

Scarlet Macaws are famous for their stunning beauty and rainbow-like color pattern. They are extremely intelligent and tend to be good talkers. A Scarlet would be well suited in a home with bird experience. They have strong personalities and can be stubborn and sassy when they want to be. In the right home, a Scarlet can make an outstanding life-long companion.

They love to be held, stroked and will climb all over you. They have been hand-reared from a very young age, and so they are very friendly and tame towards everyone, including children. They feed on apples, bananas, and pellets mixed with seeds.

Every hand-fed baby Scarlet Macaws is weaned onto a high variety diet. They are weaned onto fruits and veggies, a soak and sprout mix we make here in the store, a high variety of seeds that we also make here in the store, and naturally colored pellets.
