No, I think it may be a genuine question...like if a bird is bonded to you, can you show love and affection to your (human) partner? ...maybe not the _nasty_ though...
Really love the vibes the 2 of u have on this Channel. The vibes in your videos is just so warm and friendly! Its hard to explain but i just cant stop watching :)
Thank you for putting so much effort into making this awesome Q&A! Honestly, probably one of the best Q&As I've ever seen. A lot of answered questions, a lot of useful information but a lot to laugh at at the same time. :)
I just love your modesty telling people to check out others for advise too. This was another amazing video. Just found you a few days ago and I'm binging all your art currently. I love all of you so much. Thank you thank you thank you from the bottom of my heart for this amazing journey!!!
Tony Colon Hi. We have never thought about it but it could be an idea. Pop us an email, contact info is at the end of the video or reach out on our Instagram or Facebook and we can chat from there.
A budgie to a macaw? Dude that’s like going from riding a bike to flying a plane with no experience in between.... But...if you are ready for the commitment (a long time!!!) and the freaking price (it’s expensive, man...) and the BITES (omfg the bites...) and the TrAiNiNg!!! (I could seriously go on and on...) Well, anyways, my point is, if you’re ready, that’s your decision. However, I highly recommend you get some experience with an untamed (it’s very important that it’s untamed) bird of the kind that you wish, whatever kind of bird it may be. (If you would like a macaw, get experience with an untamed macaw.) This will allow you to share a different perspective on things. You seem like a great bird owner, seeing as your beloved budgie lived for such a long time! I really do think you will do great if you choose the path of birds in the future. I wish you luck! 🦜 Toodles!
Can I just acknowledge how great it is that your egos are not huge……that you recognize that for certain questions, you didn’t want to give advice and redirected people to “Bird Tricks”, etc?! So many new bird owners think they have it all figured out, or their egos won’t allow them to say, “I don’t know”. You both are more concerned with, and know that, the correct advice is SO important when it comes to birds. Thank you!!!!❤️🦜❤️
Awww what a lovely comment. We are still very new to this, we wanted to entertain the world not educate but ended up kinda doing both, we don’t have all the answers yet so are happy to direct people to the correct place.

You guys are amazing. I can't tell you how frustrating it is to talk people out of pets all the time because you can tell when people aren't going to take them seriously. I get so many questions about my ferrets because I have 6 of them (and a doq, and a cat lol) and as much as I would love for everyone to have one not everyone would keep them free ranged out of cage and let them destroy their house and feed them the best foods and take them out and about. I have so much respect for how you are raising your babies. I wish more people were like you. Can't wait to see more. Much LOVE XOxoOxo
This was such a fun fun video to watch! Learned so much about macaws and birds! And that first question, was... interesting. 😂 Love love loved this video because of all the energy and funny questions 😂😂😂 Keep making more!!
You two are good parents. I appreciate that you admit that you don't know everything! Thanks you are relatively new. I've had my Hahn's Macaw for 20+ years. Sadly, we had a Sulfer Crested Macaw that died of a heart problem that was undiagnosed. He just fell straigh otf of his perch. I'm ALS glad you mentioned the dust. There is far more dust on a cockatoo than a Macaw. Just incase anyone was wondering.
I have fallen in love with your videos and got to know free flying concept from your .i knew eagles can be trained. I have budgerigar for over 6 yrs kept in a aviary. I would love to help you guzs.
This is a refreshingly honest channel...Dad & Mum you both are not afraid to speak your mind. Many a times, Dad, your answers surprise me. Bravo! It tells me that you are here for the love of sharing your little ones. And for that I’m very grateful. One thing I’m really, really scared of is when Mike does a free flight, I’m looking up to see if there any raptors around. Here in Mumbai, it would be very challenging...there are Cheels and crows everywhere. M&M are much larger, yet one does worry. I’m assuming that you don’t have such concerns.
Thanks so much for the kind words. So we do our best to fly in areas without birds of prey around, most places we fly we just get the odd seagull or crow chase which Mikey enjoys haha.
You are both so kind and generous. I wish you great success with your chanel. You have saved these two birds from a sad existence. If you are incredibly successful you can get more birds! Honestly, I hope your chanel explodes and you can make birds your job! Best wishes and god bless.
Thank you for sharing your passion and time with us. As mentioned by a previous commenter, I don’t know how I stumbled across this channel...but I’m sooo glad I did. Both of you and the birds are amazing fun and entertaining. Thank you for warmly welcoming us into your world. As always, I’m looking forward to your next video. Be well!💜
Of course birds smell good lol. Smelling birds is kinda a thing its called being a sniffer. Marlene Mc'cohen came up with it. And yes we want merch!!!!
Thank you sooo much for taking the time. There is this weird thing that happened since watching you is how attached I got. You are both so good together and you put so much love into raising those two fluffy children of yours that watching your videos is like watching family members giving news. Anyway... Keep up the good work and you are going to be terrrrrrific parents someday!
I have a blue and gold macaw, Mojo, who is 13 and I’ve had him since he was just a baby, no feathers yet, he’s been through surgery successfully, he came to me with a burnt crop and one day I fed him and his formula came out from beneath a scab that had formed on his chest. Mojo is a very good boy, especially considering how much he’s been through. He hasn’t got as much attention he needs which I’m working on, we sat this morning watching Mikey the macaw videos together! I’m hoping together Mojo will become all he can be, thank you for the videos
Very much enjoy watching you guys with y’all’s birds. Enjoyed your Q & A video. Keep us up to date with y’all’s children, aka, Mickey & Mia. Ana from Sugarland, Texas. 🦜🦜🦜. Didn’t have a macaw emoji.
I totally know who should get M&M should something happen to you! But first.... You can literally see how much time and effort went into this video as the brightness and angle of the light changed many times. It not only shows how much you care about the birds but your audience as well. You make it feel like we are on this journey with you and I’m continually impressed by how humble and grateful you are. You keep things real and educational yet also fun and entertaining.! Great job guys!!! Oh and M&M would fit right in to our family as we are the 5MJ’s! All of us, including the cats) have M names. Ha!!(Totally obnoxious...I know)
Whow!!! So entertaining, full of jokes and charm!!! And off course of knowledge and experience. I have said it before; you are really nice people! Your parrots are lycky.......❤️
YES! I have a green cheek conure and the amount of dust that comes off of him is insane. I dont understand how. I used to keep his cage next to a bookcase and I was constantly dusting. I cant imagine what macaw dander is like.
You guys , U really made my whole week happy 😅😅😅 . Soooo much funny questions & hillarious ans . WELL DONE 👍. I laughed so much when u said , " I AM GOING TO EAT MIA'S EGGS " SO FUNNY . Good job . My ❤❤❤💙💙 to u all .
Such a great video! Can't imagine sifting through all those questions and cutting it down to under 30 min 🤯 such great info tho, and so happy to hear the progress made with both Mikey and Mia!!
I absolutely adore and respect you two. Thank you for showing the world what it is, to love macaws... People think im a weird bird lady, but i think people are weird.
I just love you guys. Your Always in great spirits. And your videos are informative and fun to watch. I've learned much from you, that helps with my 2 Blue & Golds. Keep up the great work...👍
I loved this Vlog! I laughed at your answers. But, to be honest, I laughed at some of the questions more! Thanks for letting us see deeper into your lives. ❤
Please could you advise me on your chop. My cag will only eat two day old chop when it’s been in fridge. Pretty wasteful. Do you guys freeze raw veg chop mix or make new every day ? do you need to cook the chop ? And what if you have some veg they like raw and some they like cooked? (like sweet potatoes have to be cooked) would love a reply or a video even better 🤞 💕💕
We rotate around 10-15 of these a day. Always more veg than fruit, always finely chopped small portions Sprouting mix Sugar snap peas Green beans Kale Butternut squash Red cabbage Apple Cauliflower Broccoli Brussel sprouts Orange Passion fruit Cucumber Pomegranate Carrot Grapes Kiwi fruit Melon Capsicum Corn Banana Blueberry Mango And as training treats ONLY we give Hazelnuts Cashews Almonds Wallnuts Pinenuts Sunflower seeds In an overall diet, it’s 50% veg, 20% fruit, 15% sprouts (not always do we give sprouts), 10% nuts, 5% seeds/dried fruit/pellets All is raw apart from the sweet potato.
You guys are amazing. You began the video with the wildest question. I'd never reveal my…"walnuts" in front of an animal that can crush actual walnuts in one hit. Also, who gets intimate in front of animals? It's good that Mia is becoming relatively more sociable. I guess my actual question is: How are birds generally viewed in Polynesian culture (at least in New Zealand)? Did you keep chickens as pets or where they just on a farm your family owned?
Great video guys! Thanks for answering all these great questions! OMG! I never thought about it before, but YES WE WANT MIKEY AND MIA MERCHANDISE! Put me down for an XL & a women’s S T-shirt and two coffee mugs please (or is it tea cups? Y’all are Limeys after all😁). BTW the correct answer to question #1 is none of your business 😂 Thanks again for the awesome videos. Keep it up!
I found you because of the video of the first month,I've even got John watching your videos now 😂😂 we love you guys so much, you really are a great bird sitter when I need free hands as well please keep the content coming!
i think merch would be really cool. also about not cliping i have a budgie an we slightly cliped her wings so she couldnt fly up but she could go down. i dont do this anymore cuz shes tame and she freeflys and everything and its great
Thanks for the shoutout guys 💗🌟
Oh you talk to them that’s cool guess that’s what bird people do I really really want a bird
Hey jamie

It's good that Mia is becoming relatively more sociable. I guess my actual question is: How are birds generally viewed in Polynesian culture (at least in New Zealand)? Did you keep chickens as pets or where they just on a farm your family owned?
So we just had chickens as pets, we didn’t have a farm or anything. It’s not common. Glad you enjoyed the vid.
Great video guys! Thanks for answering all these great questions! OMG! I never thought about it before, but YES WE WANT MIKEY AND MIA MERCHANDISE! Put me down for an XL & a women’s S T-shirt and two coffee mugs please (or is it tea cups? Y’all are Limeys after all😁). BTW the correct answer to question #1 is none of your business 😂 Thanks again for the awesome videos. Keep it up!
Haha ok will look into it. Thanks for watching.
I found you because of the video of the first month,I've even got John watching your videos now 😂😂 we love you guys so much, you really are a great bird sitter when I need free hands as well please keep the content coming!
