A Blue and gold enjoys plenty of attention. They are big birds and may at times play rough. They like to chew, so offer lots of toys to chew and destroy. Macaws need daily interaction to prevent them from developing biting and other negative behaviors. Provide your macaw with a pellet-based diet, vegetables, fresh fruit, nuts and whole grains. Macaws are very social and enjoy eating with the family. This is something you may have to learn to tolerate.
