Camelot macaw

A Camelot Macaw is a hybrid, a cross between a Catalina Macaw and a Scarlet Macaw.

We prioritize the well-being of our baby Yellow-dominant Camelot Macaws, and as such, we utilize a parent-started approach. This involves allowing the parents to raise the chicks in a nest box for a few weeks, where they can communicate with them, instead of starting life listening to the drone humming of an incubator.
