Meet Hubert

Meet Hubert, a young catalina macaw. A catalina macaw is a cross between a blue-and-gold macaw and a scarlet macaw. He's a hybrid that would not exist in the wild. He's still a baby -- only three years old.

Hubert was very loved in his previous home; however they were afraid of him. He's got a pretty big beak!As such, he did not have rules or parameters in his previous home. We have been working with him on acceptable behavior -- for example, teaching him that biting is not the way to get what he wants!

Hubert needs a home experienced with macaws. He is very intelligent and needs to have owners who will work with him to use his intelligence for good -- like learning tricks and destroying toys -- rather than for bad -- like intimidating people until they are terrified of him.

Hubert is lucky that his previous owners recognized that they were not up to the task of large macaw ownership, and that they surrendered him before any significant behavioral problems surfaced. He's pretty much a clean slate and is looking for the family that will allow him to grow.

If you think that might be you, stop by and meet him. He's a charmer!
