What behaviorial problems can macaw parrots have?
Many experts say that pet macaw parrots are more even-tempered than other parrot species. Some attribute it to the macaw’s size, saying they won’t overreact to little things the way smaller species will. Behavior problems can arise, however, if macaw parrots receive insufficient attention. Give macaws ample interaction and out-of-cage time to avoid feather destructive behavior and excessive screaming. Offer wood toys to chew so your macaw doesn’t chew inappropriate items in your house (or at least deflect it from!). If your pet macaw parrot begins to exhibit unwanted aggression, try retraining it with neutral room techniques.
