I have a Red Front Macaw… fairly rare and usually NOT listed anywhere, so don’t feel too bad!<\/span><\/div>\n

Depending on which source you rely on, Red Fronts are either the largest<\/em> of the mini-macaws or the smallest<\/em> of the full-size macaws.<\/span><\/div>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

So they fall into the medium-large or large category. Generally, about 24″ in length, weight between 400 – 500 grams (mine, for example, last weighed in at 423g) but with a HUGE wingspan – unclipped, their wings can reach up to 36″.<\/span><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Bit more trivia – this is the only parrot that can fly straight up, hover, stop & change direction in mid-air and fly backward! <\/span><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Truly amazing to watch. <\/span><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
I’ve taught Murphy a few fun tricks: One involves him taking off from my wrist straight up, turning in place a full 360 degrees – sometimes twice – then landing right back down on my arm.<\/span><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
I figure if you are going to send me a coupon, you should at least get your money’s worth, so now you know a little bit more about the Red Front Macaw.<\/span><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Thanks for the informative website, and I will be browsing your cage selections more.<\/span><\/div>\n
