She is a 1yr old hans macaw and has not been sexed, however we refer to her as a she. She loves baths, she has an extensive word vocabulary. She is always curious. She is very in love with my husband's beard. We put her to bed in the evenings and once the sheet is over the cage she is quiet through to morning. She will not volunteer any noise until daylight next morning and sheet if off. We have had friends over for dinner, socialized her for a bit while they were here, then put her in her cage and covered for the remainder of the gathering, she stayed silent. She will sqwak with excitment when she hears the front door when we get home and also if we have not been paying any attention to her and we are in another area of the home. For the most part she offers little garbles and the odd little phrases and mumbles. Her increase in volume is always associated to her wanting attention. Otherwise she very quiet or entertaining with little noises. As far as destruction, she does not get into anything, nor chew anything. She is too people oriented and is her sole focus. We leave her out of her cage every day and when we get home she is always still on her cage. Is her safe space and she is very content there. It has lots of toys and a foraging box. When she does glide down is usually because she is tired of being ignored and is coming to find one of us (she always finds me in the office and will climb my leg). We have never come home to her wandering around the house. She adores our 2 dogs and doesnt bother the cat (who we have discovered is allergic to the parrot and has been very sick)
She is pure love and curiosity. She truly just wants to be with someone all day. We have been working on stick/tap training which she has picked up on very quickly.
Very social and curious. Needs much attention.
