    Yellow Collared Macaw

    Hello from Tacoma, WA.

    Hello everyone,
    I just joined and looking forward to learning from all of you. I'm getting a 2.5 yo Yellow Collared Macaw this afternoon and will need guidance, since it's my first parrot. I have been reading some threads and look forward to meeting some members near me.

    Welcome to the forum, Robert! How exciting that you are starting on your journey to being a parront. Where did you get your parrot from? Congrats on taking in an older parrot as opposed to baby. Looking forward to pics!

    Okay, Rio is now in my house and i found that SHE was building a nest below you pan. So much for her being a male. I found out why the previous owners needed for her to go. The wife hated her and their teenage daughter use to spray her allot. How do i post pictures?

    Hi Robert,

    Wow a yellow collared Mac, how pretty! Sad that the wife hated her, I suppose thats maybe because she bonded with the husband. A nest huh, I haven't dealt with my Lady building a nest and we've had her almost 10 years.
    There is a thread about posting pics. https://www.preciselyparrots.com/sho...ert-Signatures
    Hope that helps. Looking forward to seeing her.

    From what im hearing from my friend. The husband bought the bird 2 years ago, without asking the Boss or family. She took a bite out of the teenage daughter and she was constantly sprayed from the girl. Rio is now at s the freedom around the house for 3-4 hours every afternoon.

    She's beautiful!
    Glad you were around! People often fear adopting older birds and only want babies. To be a newbie AND to adopt is cool!
