Hi,
I'm looking for a fully weaned baby hyacinth macaw. Accepting all recommendations on reputable breeders. Thank you! Oh and must be in the US.

You do realize that you already own 2 'dusty' birds which do have an affect on Macaws, causing Respiratory Hypersensitivity which if it doesn't kill the Macaw (and it has) will still affect the birds respiratory system. Signs might not show up immediately, but the disease will be there. Think of cigarettes and lung cancer.

On another forum, there was a well loved Red Front whose owner noticed one day breathing symptoms and made an appointment with the vet to be checked out but the bird died only a couple days later. The Grey in the house was transferred to another friend within days of all that happening.

Please, NEVER mix dusty birds which includes 'Toos, in with Macaws as their respiratory systems cannot handle the dust.
