Hi every one , I'm new on here and have been doing a lot of research on macaws and how they are with children , i can't get much positive feedback on the internet!
i own a RBC a GCC and my kids are fine with them , 4 years and 3 year old boys , i have taught them to be respectfull of the birds and they have boundaries and i watch them always when they are interacting with them .
i really would like to get a B&G macaw , and have found a very good breader who hand rears and also does basic flight training from fledging , toilet training and some basic training to the bird before we would pick the bird up , i have been out to se the birds and they are very calm and very well trained even at this young age .
i have a 8 meter x 3 x3 aviary being built for when i am at work and the birds are in the house when i am home supervised .
does anyone have any positive stories of macaws and children ?
i know that i will need to train the children and the bird but all i keep getting told is DONT DO IT!
thank you
