Dear Catherine, How are you? I hope you have had a great day. Do you have a cage suitable for a Hyacinth? I hope you have a fantastic evening. Thank you. Molly Hi Molly Look at either the Prevue 3155 or the AE GC6432 I personally don’t like playtops for large macaws because of the “flat” ceiling – forcing the long tail birds lower in the cage. Although birds will naturally (anti) gravitate to the top of a cage, a Playtop encourages it. The high up perching MAY create aggression issues, more so with Greenwing Macaws than with Hyacinth Macaws (as has been my experience) but it’s a factor that needs to be considered. Greenwing Macaw anecdote may interest you

No problem because I really needed that nestbox. I had to get the one for the cockatiel even tho it’s for my conures. I recently moved and their box didn’t get packed! They’re getting ready for their egg-laying and I’m about to panic, so this is like the one they have. They make the hole bigger themselves. Thanks again for your directions. Lynne

Just in case you get an egg early, you CAN put it in the box, birds cannot smell humans on their eggs, that is an old wives tale.

well, she drops it and it breaks…she’s very good with me touching her eggs…let’s me pet her too while she’s on them, the male also who shares sitting time… but he doesn’t feed her — he sits while she leaves the box and goes out to her dish to eat… BTW, he also doesn’t know the “story” - needs a porno birdy flick — eggs are all infertile, poor little thing…

If you want the birds to bond better, stop petting her while she is…
