Hi everyone,
I have a 2.5 yo unsexed Catalina named Mango. I’d like to get him/her a mate to breed. After I determine Mangos sex, should I get a baby macaw or one close to Mangos age? Is my best chance of getting Mango to bond with the new bird by getting a proven breeder or a hand raised tame macaw? Mango is pretty standoffish and independent. She likes to be on her play stand most of the time and she can be snippy. I’m thinking he/she will be more pleasant to her mate. Also, any idea how long they need to be together before they start breeding? I know Mango is too young yet but I figure the parrots will need some bonding time. Thanks for any thoughts or suggestions!
