He cost 6800, which wasnt too bad for what he is...... cecil is a bit unsure of him! He is going to get free run of the house. I am making him a giant play gym

CONGRATS PETER..... can't believe you went and got one. You're going to have a ton of fun with him.
Just some FYI too...
From those photo's I would probably assume he is on at least 3 - 4 feeds a day. The Blue & Gold & Scarlet macaws I raised last year weren't on 2 feeds a day until they were fully feathered.
How many cc's/ml's of formula is he taking at the moment? Boy they get loud don't they. Just remember that is only a glimpse of just how loud they will be when they're older.
LOL - you may want to reconsider giving Herbie free run of the house too.
Best of Luck Mate! I'm here if you got any questions.

Jack A.S.S Had a feeling you may have been shitting us. Anyone who sells a macaw that young claiming it's on 2 feeds needs to be shot lol.
