Hybrid Macaws are unlike any other macaw species out there -  they are literally crosses of many popular macaw species, bred strictly for color and pet quality.

The hybridization of macaws and other parrots is a controversial issue, drawing strong arguments from those on both sides. Some bird lovers insist that hybrids should not be bred because they can muddy the "pure" bloodlines of the parent species. Others proclaim that hybrids are more beautiful, more intelligent, and in some cases, less prone to disease than the pure species that they were bred from. In either case, hybrid macaws are here to stay, and have flown into the homes and hearts of bird lovers the world over. Here we will take a look at the most popular types of hybrid Macaws, where one thing's for sure - there should be no controversy over the fact that these are some of the most beautiful parrots the world has ever seen.
