Your not a girl? :cautious:


What kind of formula are you feeding? I would buy zupreem naturals as they are the closest to any of the formulas and they really soak up water. Soak the pellets in hot water for about 20 minutes. They will expand and get super smushy. Pour off the water and rewarm them with more hot water. Pour off and feed them in a bowl to her. Stay very close to her while feeding them. (You are basically handfeeding smushy pellets) If you do this right before actually handfeeding her she will get the hang of it.

Hi again,.. from various suggestions to this topic, I tried few things

I put formula in a bowl and she took couple of sips but left majority of it.

i then bought 2 branded pallets (colored zupreem and Uncolored padivan), kept some water to make it soft and,.. she ate few pieces (like tasting it but left majority of those too).

I got her fine chopped leaves, she also ate these very little

mashing the sweet potatoes seems to work, she couldn’t keep her beak out (indicating that she likes but I’ve no idea if she will eat the same way)
Omg these photos are so adorable! Your baby looks gorgeous :')

I know nothing about macaws, just hanging around for pics hehe.
