    'cut' Feathers And Bald Patches?

    Thanks LadyC, that gives me a lot of relief. Do you see the grey down feathers poking through the blue? What do you do if your bird looks sore or itchy - spray warm water?

    Large Macaw Transport Cage

    Hi all, I'm buying a cage for transporting my Bella, a BG Macaw, to and from the vet and our balcony. I am looking to eventually get the large Kings Macaw cage as recommended by @TomsMum, but having spent a few thousand on the bird and other bits recently I can't really justify another £360 to...

    'cut' Feathers And Bald Patches?

    Then I'm off to get myself a light! Any advice on when to use it, where to put it and for how long it should be on per day? Her name is Bella :emoji_blush: I'm very quickly learning about the running costs of parrot ownership! But I think it's going to be well worth every penny.

    'cut' Feathers And Bald Patches?

    This is great information, thank you! I live in East London, but the cage is by massive floor to ceiling windows - we're a 10th floor duplex so she has a view of parks and the city. She flys from the living room to the bedroom, to the drying rack and then back to the living room, perhaps twice a...

    'cut' Feathers And Bald Patches?

    Thank you both! I can't wait to see her settled down and happy. It seems she's been kept on a diet of seeds and nuts, with a rare piece of fresh fruit. Everything I'm reading suggests pellets. Fellow Macaw owners... any thoughts on these (Planning to buy them now for next day delivery: -...

    'cut' Feathers And Bald Patches?

    Good morning all! I picked up Bella just 36 hours ago from a private owner, she had been there for two months and was in a pretty messy condition. There was little space, no where to fly and the house had two dogs and 5 kids - a very stressful environment for a bird. She has beautiful feathers...
