5 FAQs
What size cage is best for a Severe Macaw?
Choose a cage that allows your bird to fully stretch its wings in all directions, ideally at least 90 x 75 x 120 cm, with space for multiple perches and enrichment items.
Can I use a cage made for larger parrots?
Yes! Cages made for African Greys, Amazons, or even small cockatoos often meet Severe Macaw requirements—just ensure the bar spacing is appropriate and safe.
How do I know the cage is secure enough?
Look for heavy-duty locks, powder-coated steel, and strong welds. Avoid cages with plastic fittings or flimsy construction.
Is a play-top or dome-top better?
Play-top cages are great for encouraging out-of-cage time. Dome-top cages provide more interior height—either option works well depending on your bird’s routine and available space.
What cage accessories are essential?
Include natural wood perches, feeding bowls, stimulation toys, and a calcium perch or cuttlefish bone. Indoor birds also benefit from UV lighting to support health and vitamin D synthesis.
