Macaw Wing

I just bought a male scalet macaw,but he has facial feather?

I just bought a male scalet macaw,but he has facial feather,I suppose the scalet macaw shouldn’t have facial feather,right. But the facial feather is very light,not like Green-winged Macaw. Now I suspect he is Ruby Macaw(Hybrid macaw), could anone can tell me how to tell the different between scarlet & ruby macaw?If I do DNA test,is it matter the test result with wrong species? By the way,the scarlet I bought got huge band of yellow color just like scarlet,I know ruby macaw could have yellow or orange color,too. Anyway now I confused!!

Ruby Macaws will have large amounts of yellow and green on their shoulders plus the facial feathers. If it’s mainly yellow with the facial patch, I’m still pretty sure you have a hybrid. It sucks that the person lied to you about the species! Parrots are one of those creatures that can mate with related species and the offspring can breed. Very different with horses, donkeys and Mules! it’s possible you might have a Ruby that’s been bred several times to another hybrid or even a Scarlet. You’ll never know for sure unless you speak to the breeder and they know the birds’ pedigree. It sucks for you if you wanted to breed your guy. You have a hybrid that may or may not breed to a scarlet or another Ruby. If you’re keeping it as a pet, you can honestly say you have a unique companion not found everyday!
