JJ & Jaffa (blue and gold macaws)

I own quite a few parrots and breed from some of them

but two of my blue and golds are very special to me

Jaffa is 13 years old and we have had her since she was 4 months old and she was our first ever macaw

JJ is 5 years old and our first ever baby that i handreared here in Wales

Jaffa and JJ now live together in an avairy and they love each other very very much

well the last 12 months they have become even closer so this year hubby said he would put a nesting box in the avairy just to see what they did

well yesterday he went in to see them and to our total shock Jaffa had laid an egg, but sadly it had been smashed

but i am so so excited that there may be babies from these very special macaws of mine

so watch this space

sounds exciting! brilliant that they're showing an interest in the nest-box.. fingers crossed for you and your lovely two!

OOOO!! Good Luck!! Any pics of them??

Thank you both very much

i have blue and gold babies every year but these would be extra special

here are some pics of Jaffa and JJ

Gorgeous birds Jackie!

I woud love a parrot but hubby is allergic to them

Good luck with the pair of them

I would love one of these one day ! We've had friends that had them in Oz, and I love them.

Yours are gorgeous

Beautiful birds, I love parrots and would love an African Grey one day.
Good luck for some eggs

OOO! They are gorgeous!!! Keep us posted with how things go and I hope for little babies How many do they usually have??

ooh they're gorgeous! a really beautiful blue..

Funnily enough I was only thinking about your birdie babies this morning, and wondering how soon it would be before we would see some gorgeous pics , but it looks as if we may have 2 lots this year, how exiting now all you have to do is persuade the Eclectus to hatch some out, and you'll be well away
