Oh by the way to the person who posted about the big beaks and being scared..... My 5 year old can hold the macaw with no problem since the day we got it! BUT... we also have Senegal parrots which are 1/10thth the size and their bit hurts WORSE then the big macaws . Macaws really have to be prevoked to bite HARD. They will nip and close their beaks on things but the tiny little parrots will chomp you and it HURTSSSSSSSSSSSSS.
of course I'm talking in general and there is usually always an adjustment time.
WOW! I always looked at those Macaw beaks, and thought --no way! That is interesting to know. Keep singing and he will come out with it one of these days! Usually when you are good and tired of saying the phrase, they decide they will say it! HA !
