Details About This Blue Macaw for sale

Appearance: A True Blue Beauty

Azul is a stunning Blue Macaw who has iridescent cobalt blue feathers, bright yellow eye-rings, and powerful dark beak. The beauty, intelligence, and gentle nature of this bird will surely impress any bird lover. As the largest flying parrot, the Hyacinth Macaw is a symbol of the Amazon’s biodiversity, facing threats from habitat loss and illegal trade. 

Its plumage is remarkably soft and delicate, imparting a velvety look. To further enhance its dramatic coloration, there are bare yellow rings encircling the eyes and a yellow patch near the lower mandible, strikingly contrasting with the blue. These species of parrots are the world’s largest flying birds, measuring 40 inches in length and approximately 2.6 to 3.7 pounds in weight. The beak of Azul is also curved and strong, designed to crack open even the toughest nuts such as macadamias and Brazil nuts. Their long, thin tail feathers and large wingspan also help to give its appearance an elegant look.

Temperament: Affectionate and Intelligent

Azul is an affectionate and sweet bird. He is close to the human attachment system and extremely loving. This avian companion is exceptionally social and flourishes when integrated into a household. It enjoys cuddling, being head-rubbed, and even carried around like a baby.

Like other Hyacinth Macaws, Azul is quick learners and adores problem toys, training sessions, and human contact. Not the most talkative macaws, but he will echo some words and phrases with a nice gravelly voice.

However, sensitivity to emotions makes him prone to depression or anxiety if left alone or ignored. Frequent interaction, encouragement, and mental stimulation are essential to his well-being and happiness.

Health and Longevity

Azul is vaccinated and dewormed. He is fully healthy and fit. If you are searching for a Hyacinth Macaw bird for sale with good health, Azul will be the best match. But like other birds, he can be prone to certain health issues if not shown the right environment and diet.

Hyacinth Macaws are strong birds with a life expectancy of 50 to 70 years in captive life when properly cared for. Like all parrots, they are prone to certain health issues if not shown the right environment and diet. 

These health issues are:

• Stress or boredom feather plucking
• A diet lacking proper nutrients may result in Vitamin A insufficiency
• Psittacosis (parrot fever)
• Beak and feather disease

Routine veterinary examinations by an avian specialist, a nutritious diet, and a stimulating environment prevent most of these health issues. If he receives proper care he can live up to 50 to 70 years.

Diet and Nutrition Needs for Azul

In their natural habitat, Hyacinth Macaws mainly consume palm nuts, seeds, and a variety of fruits. When in captivity, they require a well-balanced diet that mimics the natural diet. Azul will require the same diet. His strong beak has the capability of opening the hardest nuts, so raw and unsalted nuts such as macadamia, Brazil, and walnuts should form the core of his diet.

Supplement with:

• Formulated pellets of high quality
• Fresh fruits like papaya, mango, and apples
• Root vegetables like carrots, along with leafy greens and sweet potatoes
• Occasional cooked legumes and grains

Always provide fresh, clean water and never provide toxic foods like chocolate, caffeine, avocado, and alcohol.

Care Requirements: Commitment and Enrichment

If you are searching for a blue macaw for sale, you need to know that it is a time-consuming obligation that requires space, patience, and time. These parrots require a large, sturdy cage (at least 6 feet tall) or, better yet, a bird room of their own. They also require several hours of free flight outside the cage daily for exercise and interaction.

Provide ample toys—especially wood chew toys—to keep their beak busy. Change toys regularly to keep them engaged. A playgym or perch stand is also useful for close observation playtime.

Due to their high intelligence and emotional complexity, these birds do well in situations where they are not allowed to sit alone for hours. Their owners will also need to take into account their extremely loud calling, which will not be appreciated in an apartment environment.

Interesting Characteristics

• Hyacinth Macaws can exert over 300 psi of beak pressure—enough to crack open a coconut!
• They often use their feet like hands to hold onto food, toys, or even to shake hands.
• Their large size and rarity make them highly sought after—although they are endangered and typically only available from ethical breeders in small quantities.
• In their natural habitat, their flight speed can reach as much as 35 miles per hour.
• Despite their size, they will often display playful, humorous behavior—hanging upside down, playing peekaboo, or mimicking household noises.
