I looked too! ha! They are so beautiful! I hope they don't separate them though. They'd miss each other!

I did a quick search, and it seem they are most likely hybrids. A Hyacinth and a Buffon's macaw make the Emerald Macaw (but I couldnt find pictures to validate that these are hybrids). I would assume that these are hybrids not a color mutation because of the price. A true color mutation on a hyacinth would be CRAZY expensive, as most new mutations are 10 times the retail price (imagine an 80,000 dollar bird LOL)

Ruby says she is an 80,000 dollar bird! Or surely will be in a few years! ha!

Yes, they are hybrids.

OK. Which one of "ya'll" are going to go get these birds? They just can't be separated!

Sure wish I could, but I don't have room :-(
