Well, most of you guays know that I raise parrots. duh. I found this on the web today. Some of my baby parrots go to resorts, casinos, wildlife parks, TV commercials. I even have some at several major amusement parks. I am not allowed to say which parks but one involves a mouse, another involves a beer manufacturer safari garden in tampa and another involves large seagoing mammals and other critters. Everyday I get inquiries from all over the world from people that want to buy my babies. My preferance is to sell my babies to families and only in the USA. Anyway, heres a link to one of the outfits that has put up videos on youtube of some of my birds. When you go to the link there are several more links for you to check out. Have a look at them.

After viewing these videos all I have to say is that this guy really doesn't have a clue, tho hes is a good guy and loves his birds. The two Blue and Gold Macaws Polynesia and Calipso are my babies. The other birds are not. You will probably notice that of all the birds shown in all the videos these 2 are in the best condition and are beautiful specimens and are the tamest with the nicest personalities. Compare the colors and the feather condition to the other birds shown. I see a big difference. This guy uses treats and a clicker to train his birds. I don't believe in that. My birds preform for me because they love me, period. I have never used treats in any form of training. After I train them verbally I simply tell them what to do and they preform. You will notice in one of the videos that hes trying to get one of my babies to lay on its back. One of the hardest things to train a bird to do is lay on its back. Before I sold Poly and Cal to this guay they both would lay on their back willingly and stay in that postion for maybe 5 minutes or more untill I said "OK". Then they would flip upright again, come up to my face and give me a kiss. This guy has all but ruined these 2 babies imo.
These babies are about 3 years old in the videos. I found out that Poly and Cal are both for sale now because this man really didn't do much to entertain the audiance. I will forego the comment I originally would have said. He doesn't have much of a relationship with his birds and he has to coach them into doing "tricks" with a clicker and food treats. wth.
I thought some of you might like to have a look. While you may enjoy these videos I am quite ashamed that I sold these 2 birds to him. He represented himself as an excellant bird trainer. Hes not. He took 2 birds and ruined them imo. Also, some of the info he gives the audiance is not accurate. He says the big red macaw, the Greenwing is the largest. No way, the Hyacinth is by far the largest macaw. And its the Hyacinth that can snap a broom handle in one bite. The Greenwing can bite and make you bleed but it would take at least a full minute for it to sever a finger. However, if a Hyacinth bit your wrist your entire hand would fall to the ground...with one bite. This guay claims to educate the audiance. With false info? Tho the videos are still interesting.
Because of my health issues, a year or so ago I quit breeding all macaws except the Hyacinth macaws, the most sought after, largest, and expensive of all the macaws, also one of the rarest . I am not an idiot. just sayin.
