carolz7 Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 I have totally died and gone to heaven. Why do these birds have to be so darn expensive. This guy is amazing. He is 5 years old but acts like a baby. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SRSeedBurners Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 He's huge! Is that beak normal? Looks massively overgrown to me but I know zip about macaws. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShaneO Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 B-E-A-U-T-I-F-U-L!!!!!!! I would not like to get bit by him..... My friend has a Macaw, her beak is not as long only cause he has it trimmed. All pics i have seen of the Hyacinth have HUGE beaks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greywings Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 Hy beaks are more like wrench than a can opener they can crack Macadamia nuts which are super hard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luvparrots Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 Oh I am so jealous. That is the parrot I want, a beautiful/comical looking Hyacinth. Can't wait to hear more about this adventure with us!!!! Please share...... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brat Birds Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 Lucky you!! I got to play with one for a couple of hours and loved every minute of it. They are solid and heavier than they look. I think the beak looks just fine. They are usually so gentle with that big beak. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

judygram Posted June 11, 2014 Share Posted June 11, 2014 The gentle giants, they are lovely birds and lucky you Carol to get to have one stay with you for a bit, enjoy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
murfchck Posted June 11, 2014 Share Posted June 11, 2014 They are beautiful. I got to be around a few here and one that would let you hand him a nut, took it from the side of his mouth, its cute but sure is scary that way. He cocked his head like he was going to bite but then stuck out his tongue and took it so gently. They are awesome birds and you are so lucky!

kittykittykitty Posted June 16, 2014 Share Posted June 16, 2014 What a wonderful, special time for you! I, too, dreamed of having of having one after I saw movies of them in the wild. It was just a dream. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

birdhouse Posted June 26, 2014 Share Posted June 26, 2014 This is another bird I would love, love, love to see in the wild. One is magnificent. How incredible would it be to see a flock? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
