Origin:  Scarlet Macaws originate in the rainforests of South America. They can be seen in the wild in the Galapagos Islands off the coast of Equador. For breeders raising and hand-feeding these no longer imported beauties, (it's illegal to import them now because smuggling was making them extinct)

All babies are weaned and as appropriate, have had polyoma shots.
