Illiger's Macaw



The Illiger's Macaw or Blue-winged Macaw makes for a good pet because of its small size and high intelligence. However they are lively boisterous birds and so will require a generous living space. This very active, inquisitive, and amusing little parrot will investigating and chew everything in sight.

Young hand-raised Illiger's Macaws make wonderful pets. They are very adaptable and relatively easy to take care of. A friendly and sweet little bird that is handleable by many people. But they must be socialized and exposed to a variety of experiences at a young age and will require regular interaction and constant stimulation.

While they make good pets they are also great aviary prospects. This macaw is very active and needs room to stretch its wings. A flight area is very important energy outlet for these birds and they will prove to be quite artistic flyers. They are also very social and being kept with a companion will help avoid depression and loneliness.
