New b&g macaw

[roy]

Hi all well after Biggles has sadly gone and believe me he will never be forgotten. I've got myself a baby b&g that I've brought I have been going over the breeder's house twice a week playing with Chico that's his name. Well I'm getting ready to bring him home very soon. Biggles was from a rescue so he was use to beening moved about. But Chico is only a chick so what's the best thing for me to do to make him feel at home. He's lovely by the way

LOL - Same thing you do with an adult only a bit more often and a touch more careful: spend all day long with him, give him a real good diet, put him under a strict solar schedule and daily routines (and that means weekends same as weekdays, 365 days a year), good quality full spectrum and UV light in the room where he spends his days, a clean and very roomy cage with lots of toys. Also, be prepared to handfeed (they always regress) and learn to prepare at least three different kinds of fresh soft foods.
