Chelsea is a female Macaw Parrot. Macaws are known for their stunning beauty, loving nature, and deep emotional connections with their human companions, and Chelsea embodies all of these qualities. She’s a young, vibrant bird with a heart full of affection and a playful, spirited personality. Though she’s not yet fully handleable, Chelsea loves being around people, offering her sweet, curious presence and soaking up attention from those she trusts.

Chelsea is highly intelligent and eager to learn, responding beautifully to patient, positive training methods like target training, station training, and desensitizing her to hands. Her gentle and loving nature makes her the perfect companion for someone who is ready to invest time, patience, and lots of affection in building a lasting bond.

With the right care, training, and a lot of love, Chelsea has the potential to become a deeply loyal and affectionate companion. Her charming personality, loving heart, and playful antics will bring endless joy and warmth to the right home.

***Information that is universal to every bird:

1) Birds are typically not family animals. They usually choose a favorite and at best you can expect them to tolerate everyone else.

2) Birds are not great with kids, dogs, other birds, and are not cuddly with everyone, nor can they really be trained to be. Birds are flock animals, who are social creatures that need to be in a communal area where they can see the rest of the family, or you may eperience serious vocalization and behavior problems. We’ve never met a bird who is great with kids, but we have met kids who are respectful of birds.

3) Birds bite. But, you shouldn’t “take the bite”. If you’re getting bit, you haven’t earned the trust of the bird, and are pushing the bird past his/her limits. You must figure out what the bird needs, and make what you’re asking of the bird more attractive than what they are already doing.

4) Birds are not “dominance” based creatures. Your only option for birds is to earn their trust. If they are, say…on top of a cage and don’t want to come down, that is where they feel safest, not a dominance thing. They are not trying to exert dominance, they just don’t want to come down. Your job as a parrot owner is to figure out what you can do to help them trust you, and whatever you are asking to be more attractive than what they are already doing.
