Can my Macaw be in the pool house?

Question

I am soon going to be moving to a new place, there is a separate outdoor pool, totally enclosed in a heated building. Can our parrot hang out there with us, obviously not in the pool, or will the air be harmful, due to the chlorine?

Answer 1

Macaws have extremely sensitive respiritory systems, so I don't think that you should bring him in there with the chlorine with all the doors & windows closed.  Is there any way you could open windows/doors and let in some fresh air? Then I think he could.

But I think that'd be a great question to ask your avian vet.

Answer 2

It probably wouldnt be suitable, but its your own choice.
