DINO & LOLO
ADOPTED!
DINO & LOLO
Greenwing Macaw and Blue and Gold Macaw
This is Dino & Lolo.
This is what we know about them:
Dino and Lolo are a bonded pair of Greenwing and Blue and Gold macaws (both male) who have been with the same family their entire lives. Dino is 10, Lolo is 21. Dino is a goofy, silly boy who is a gentle giant. You do have to earn their trust a bit before they’ll just be comfy with you but it doesn’t take long. Dino likes women (and probably just about anyone who is willing to be goofy with him) and Lolo STRONGLY prefers males.
Ideally, these two will find a Man/Woman couple who each want a bird. They are used to being caged separately, but near each other and playing on a playstand during the day together.
Age: 10 and 21
Sex: Male
Prefers: Dino likes everyone, but prefers females, Lolo STRONGLY prefers men.
Other Bird Aggressive? We have not let them interract, but they lived with other birds.
Cage Aggressive? No.
Adoption Fee: $2000
Cage Available: Affordable used cages available to purchase starting at $150.
SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS:
They may never be separated, and they should be caged separately for the best results for them.
***Information that is universal to every bird:
1) Birds are typically not family animals. They usually choose a favorite and at best you can expect them to tolerate everyone else.
2) Birds are not great with kids, dogs, other birds, and are not cuddly with everyone, nor can they really be trained to be. Birds are flock animals, who are social creatures that need to be in a communal area where they can see the rest of the family, or you may eperience serious vocalization and behavior problems. We’ve never met a bird who is great with kids, but we have met kids who are respectful of birds.
3) Birds bite. But, you shouldn’t “take the bite”. If you’re getting bit, you haven’t earned the trust of the bird, and are pushing the bird past his/her limits. You must figure out what the bird needs, and make what you’re asking of the bird more attractive than what they are already doing.
4) Birds are not “dominance” based creatures. Your only option for birds is to earn their trust. If they are, say…on top of a cage and don’t want to come down, that is where they feel safest, not a dominance thing. They are not trying to exert dominance, they just don’t want to come down. Your job as a parrot owner is to figure out what you can do to help them trust you, and whatever you are asking to be more attractive than what they are already doing.
5) NEVER send money over the internet for adoption with any individual or organization for the adoption of an animal you have not met in person. That is almost always a scam.
