So this is kind of a long post, and I apologize in advance.

I posted i was looking for a new bird to add to our flock on the nextdoor app...didnt really think anybody would respond- but a woman did, she has a few she is looking to rehome- including a blue and gold macaw, she literally lives a street over, and wants me to come hang out and get to know them(the parrots) and what not.

The macaw is in love with her husband and completely switched up on her- being very protective and she said aggressive. It just happened over the last year. His name is Dodo, and he lunges at her anytime she is near his cage, wont accept anything out of her hand anymore, chases her around, etc. When she walks into the room he starts aggresively chewing his leg as well...she said he used to love her so much and then she started working more and now it is the complete opposite...HOWEVER she said that he is apparently very friendly with anybody else and accepts treats from others etc...she said it is ONLY her.

She also said none of them except maybe their caique are very 'social' anymore as they dont get to get out much due to life circumstances changing, working more, etc.

So, I am wondering- what can I do to get to know this macaw in particular? Her husband will be gone while I am there visiting and what not- so that is good. But i'm worried that since we will be in the same space/their house...i just don't know what to do/how to bond there lol. Also, I did already ask her if shed be comfortable to let me in with him without her, since she makes him so angry- and she absolutely agreed.

Looking for any information/info/advice on this situation...any extra info on macaws in general that maybe I should know about. Maybe your macaws favorite toys/things/treats...also, she clips his wings. I do not clip any of my parrots wings. Would that be something i should continue? He is 10.

I am going over there starting tomorrow- and I just want it to hopefully go well😅

Pic just for attention. And yes, I do already own parrots! I am just new to a macaw potentially being in my home...but i do have some experience with them from others. Thanks!!
