Can male macaws lay eggs?

Cockatoos are parrots, which are birds, and birds reproduce by laying eggs. A female cockatoo should lay eggs, but there are always reasons why a bird might not lay eggs.

Alternatively, given that it is very hard to tell the difference between the male and female of many cockatoo species, there is a good chance that it is a male. No male bird lays eggs.
