A rare parrot is being hand-reared by keepers at Chester Zoo.
The hyacinth macaw chick was hatched in an incubator four weeks ago.
The chick, which is described as looking like a “cross between a dinosaur and a plucked chicken”, is so small that it is being kept in a Tupperware tub.
Keepers have given the youngster the unisex name Jessie, as it will be some time until it develops feathers that they can send away for DNA analysis in order to sex the youngster.
