[Macawlvr]

I have a eight year old B&G that will still easily do that every time. Doesn't really mean anything specific to me except they are being goofy.

Back when I was hand feeding baby macaws, some of my older ones would come into the kitchen when I was doing that and all of them would start trying to feed each other. I would even give the older ones a bit of the leftover formula and they would immediately turn back into babies...it was quite hilarious to watch.

Temperatures...the large macaws actually like the cold as long as they are acclimated to it, at least mine do. They are outside year round. I do live in South Texas though.

What I would be careful about is 'sudden temperature shifts'...like going from a 70 degree house out into a 50 degree cold and windy day. You want the cool down to be gradual, keeping them out of drafts...and you want to acclimate a macaw to more extreme temps if they are going to be subjected to them.

I get a lot more worried in the summertime when the temps go up around 95 to a hundred degrees. Macaws don't like the heat and don't do well with high temps either. A overheated macaw is a dangerous situation.
