Due to my husband having lung cancer I sadly must rehome my two Blue and Gold Macaws "Hook Bird" and "Nicky Bird" I have had these two for 30 years. They are Bonded and must stay together. They were both hand feed and tame. Hook was hatched in Dec 1990, so he is 36 years old. I am not sure when Nicky was hatched, I got him about 1 year after I had hook bird and I was told he was 10 to 15 years at that time., that would put him about 45 years. We where told Nicky was surgeicaly sexed as male, as they have been together for 30 years and never laid a egg (Thank goodness!) we assume Hook is male too. They do talk some, both live in the same large cage 6 foot tall 40 inches wide and 30 inches deep. They love to come out and sit on the cage, I have not actually handled the birds in several years due to life.. Cage is included. They are not big screamers, usually only if they need something. This absolutely breaks my heart to let them go! Due to their tight bond they must remain together. They must be picked up here! $1500 birds and cage.
