Post: Any breeders out there that are willing to help?Posted by Amelia on 2/23/08
Hello everyone, I have a pair of greenwing macaws that
have laid 3 eggs...and now I'm completely clueless as what
to do. I was told they were both females, but I'm not sure
because the previous owner never DNA or surgical sexed
them, she said they just seem like females.
So with the possibility of one of them being a male...what
should I do? I know I have to candle the eggs because of
the possibility of them being fertile...but...I don't know
how to do it.
I was hoping someone who breeds macaws could give me some
help and advice. I asked earlier this week, but all I seem
to got was responses telling me how unresponsible I am,
and how I should just give my birds away.
I'm not going to do that, I love them dearly, even if I
can't touch them. But I want to make sure I'm doing
everything right for them. I already give them fresh
vegies and fruits daily, and the "male" brings them to the
female who stays in her box all day and doesn't ever come
out. I've even watched the male bring her water.
I have so many questions that I can't post them all here,
but if your a breeder and have had successful clutches
please email me! If you breed greenwings, that's even
better!
Just someone please help!
Thanks for your time
