Found this..Watch Baby Hyacinth Grow

Been searching for video and such of Macaws (still looking to find B&G) but came across this. Found it interesting to know how they progress in a matter a couple weeks. Helps to relate, even though the HY is much bigger than a B&G.


One thing I noticed is when it was still young and clumsy, is it fell on his crop a couple of times. I thought this can be dangerous as it can force the food up and asperate from it??


Found this ...B&G babies (http://www.minnichsbirds.com/blue_gold_macaws.htm), awwwwwww and Greys (http://www.minnichsbirds.com/congo_greys.htm)too awwwwwww

Oh wouldn't that be great Jeff,


Yep Hyacinth is my hubbys favourite too, keep telling him he could have one, but as yet he hasn't taken the bait, not that I would take him away from Hubby:foot-tap:

These are adorable...:heart: Good links!

Even the larger cockatoos close to a year old will be playing and loose concentration and fall from a perch. Elvie fell off his tree at 8 months old that way and scared the "wits" out of me. thatwas a long hard fall. He landed on his back and knocked part of wind out of himself. So I padded under his tree and put heavy clear plastic over the padding in case it happened again.

Cool sites Barb. Those sure are some cute babies. :wub:

I've never heard of a baby aspirating from falling on their crop. Suppose anything is possible especially if they fell hard. I doubt just being clumsy and falling around would aspirate them. If so I think we'd hear more about it.:shrug:

Barb,

That is great. I just loved it. I can't believe how BIG their feet are. It is amazing.

Glad everyone enjoyed that site, I sure did!! :highfive:


Jeff, here's to you winning. Ya know if u do, you will have to tour all of us to show off your new HY ;) We have lottery here, but never play. Guess I think the chances are too slim :shrug:

The movies are great too, don't think I get the full benefit though as I've still got no sound on this putor. They are still great and I love the hyacinth

[amazing greys]

Peta, there's not much sound other than the other birds you hear in the back ground. ;)

[parrotgirl]

Thanks for that Barb, at least now I know I'm not missing out on much, I did warn you all that I was nosey didn't I?:D
