The feeding response of macaws is impressive. EARTHQUAKE!!!! You have to hang on for the ride. :) I just had a flashback of triggering feeding responses in baby birds. :) Their beaks are still fleshy until they get a bit of growth. All you have to do is touch the sides or a fleshy part and the little guys bob up and down like crazy!
I worked in pet stores and as a breeder and it was always hard watching someone walk off with a baby. At least as a breeder I had some control, but I still accidentally sold to a few people who ended up killing the bird through stupidity or neglect. :(
