In the UK, the cost of a Macaw typically ranges from around £300 to £1,200 for the initial purchase, depending on the species and breeder, with ongoing care expenses averaging between £100 and £150 per month.
Keeping a Macaw can be challenging as they require a large living space, daily social interaction, mental stimulation, and a specialized diet; they are intelligent and social birds that need experienced owners and may not be suitable for small living spaces like apartments.
Blue-and-Gold Macaws are among the most popular pet species due to their pet-friendly nature, while Green-winged Macaws tend to be calmer; smaller species such as Hahn’s or Noble Macaws may also be easier to manage for some owners.
Macaws have a long lifespan, typically living between 30 and 60 years depending on the species and the quality of care they receive, with many averaging around 35 to 50 years.
