Does anyone have experience breeding handicapped birds? This is a happy boned Macaw pair. The Male is unable to fully extend his right wing do to a past injury. He is in good health, very active, good balance and climbing ability. I hope this is not a stupid question but could his injury in any way effect his ability to mate? Might he be rejected by the female because of his injury? Thank you for any help you can offer!

well, it might be a little harder for him cuz males spread their wing over the females body, but i bet he will still be able to breed
