Dale S. has a new B&G macaw rescue and relates:

About a month ago I received a blue gold macaw as kind of a rescue, the folks that had him couldn’t handle or take care of him anymore. I am his third owner in as best they could tell me 12 years. 

I don’t have any experience with macaws prior. 

So far so good except the cage ordeal. 

The cage they gave me for him was way too small and he absolutely hated it so I built him a perch to hang out on in my basement till I could get a suitable cage for Oscar.

My 8-year-old Yellow-sided Conure is very picky about vegetables.

She will only eat three.

She likes broccoli, carrots, and snow peas.

If I try giving her sugar snap peas, which are almost the same, she knows the difference and throws them out of the bowl.
