Hi!

Congrats on your decision..:)

B&G's are great pets!
However...
They can become one person birds. They are also loud, playful and very demanding of your time. They need alot of fresh foods, room and free time.
Of course plenty of hands on playtime. They instictually bond with one human. That doesn't mean they can't love both though. A female seems to be more acceptable of everyone, then a male.
I'm am not trying to convince you against these wonderful birds. If you are ready then of course do it!!
I just want you to know, down the road things may change. (at about 8 years old) They can live for a long long time (80 years) and will depend on you for every minute of that time. Macaw's LOVE to be loved and noticed..:)

Congrats!!!
