Mini Macaws?

[MR. Mango]

I would really appreciate it if someone could list all the mini macaw species, because whenever I go to research there’s only Hahn’s and Oliver’s that pop up

Mini (Miniature) Macaw Species and Photos

The term "mini-macaw" is derived from "miniature macaw" - which is principally used in aviculture to describe a group of smaller macaws that have a total body length of 20 inches (50 cm) or less.

I assumed they meant Illigers and it autocorrected.

That makes sense, if I try to search up "Oliver's macaw" on google and all that came up was a bunch of macaws named oliver.

 

[MR. Mango]

Oh yeah sorry meant to write illigers

 

[MR. Mango]

since Hahn’s and illigers are similar sized to sunnies do you think I could let them play?

Under constant direct supervision, probably. I'm not an expert on either one though.

 

[MR. Mango]

Thank you that’s what I thought

 

[Mizzely]

Hahns are possibly a good companion for sun conures, however their beak is quite a bit bigger so it would have to be with caution.



Illigers and Yellow Collared are quite a bit larger and would not be a good match IMO. Hahns average about 165g while Illiger's and Yellow Collarged are about 250-265g.

 

[MR. Mango]

Yea

 

[MommyBird]

I have a Hahns (165g) and a Jenday (119g) and I don't let them together. My Hahns is a real bully even with birds weighing 300g and actually bit the jenday's foot the only time he landed on the Hahns' cage. (I now have a sheer curtain around the Hahns' cage for when needed) Well, my Hahns is a bully with me too. He's the only bird I can never let my guard down around. He's out on me a lot but I trusted my hormonal flighted male Bluefront Amazon more than my Hahns. He makes very quick decisions and doesn't give but an instant of body language when offended.

I know that when Gizmo (Hahns) was at webchirps's house, she did not get along with any of her conures either, and she did not get along with my green cheek or Quaker. Had to keep her separate too.

@itzmered has both

My Hahn’s and sun conure were best buddies. They got a long great and were very bonded. Tango had a tough time when Jasper passed away

 

[MR. Mango]

Aww such cuties

Oh no! I had no idea that Jasper passed away I'm so very sorry. I always loved hearing about them and their wonderful friendship.
