The Hyacinth had been successfully weaned at the age of 3 month. The birds were fed with seeds, peanuts, fruits and vegetables. As these macaws in the wild are some sort of specialized in certain palm nuts which are not availiable on the market, R. Noegel recommends bigger pieces of coconut, shell and flesh as a replacement. During the breeding season raw corn on the cob and coconut were given with additional dog chow, monkey chow and a soft food mix on the bases of wheat bread, blended fruit, powdered milk, honey, vitamins, egg shell etc. The first clutch should be given to foster parents or moved to an incubator.
Hyacinths often destroy the first clutch.
Keep strangers out of your aviaries.
