In the last twenty or so years we have raised only a dozen of the most exceptional macaws in our experience. Granted, we are a bit prejudiced, but when frequently asked to name our favorite bird, we both agree that is has to be the Red Fronted Macaw.

A Hahn’s macaw’s personality is much like that of its larger macaw cousins — bold, fun, active — but in a more manageable size, which makes this parrot a popular companion.

We have several species of Macaws, some of which are extremely endangered and not encouraged as pets. At various times in our booth we will show Blue Throated, Red Fronted, Green Wing, Blue and Gold and Scarlet Macaws.

There are two types of Caiques. Today you will see both black headed and apricot headed clowns. These confident and outgoing parrots keep us laughing all day long. Although they are not the best talkers, their antics are unequaled.

Scarlet Macaws have a reputation for being somewhat more aggressive and unpredictable than other large Macaws. After raising several clutches of Scarlets some alongside other species of macaws, we have concluded that their disposition is not much different from the Green Wing macaws, who are commonly referred to as the gentle giants.
