Age
The age of a macaw is a determining factor in the size of its eggs. Macaws that breed immediately upon reaching puberty typically produce smaller eggs, which can also affect their overall body size. Experienced breeders often opt to keep young macaws separated until they reach maturity to ensure they produce eggs of optimal size.

How long can eggs sit before you put them in the incubator?
Rotate the eggs daily until ready for incubation to ensure optimal hatchability, which typically lasts up to three weeks. Avoid storing eggs for more than three weeks before placing them in the incubator.
There are several factors that can lead to eggs failing to hatch:
- Unfertilized eggs: Sometimes females lay eggs even without mating with males.
- Underutilized eggs: If mating is unsuccessful, females may lay eggs that remain unfertilized.
- Developmental issues: Eggs may fail to hatch if the chick does not develop properly inside or if the egg is infertile.
- Nesting issues: Improper nest box size or shape can lead to eggs falling and embryo death.
- Male infertility: Infertility in male birds can result in unsuccessful fertilization.
- Environmental stress: External disturbances or other birds’ proximity can stress females, causing them to neglect their eggs.
- Nutritional deficiencies: Inadequate calcium intake can lead to soft-shelled eggs, hindering successful hatching.
