8. Hyacinth Macaw- $14,000
Remember we’ve told you about this parrot? The Hyacinth Macaw is the biggest macaw from all the species, and the largest flying parrot.
Its expensiveness comes from its rarity. They are easy to train, and quieter than the other parrots.
Like we said before, the Hyacinth Macaw is known to be the “Rolls-Royce” of parrots because their rarity and of course, price tag.
A single bird can sell between $7,000 and $14,000. Because people have the bad habit of selling them, their population in the wild has taken a heavy turn.
Just remember the story the writers from Rio 2 (2014) have told us and think twice before keeping a Hyacinth Macaw as your pet.
