Disclaimer: I don't know how good jalapenos are for macaws, or any other bird specifically. What I do know is that birds seem to lack the capsaicin receptor; birds which eat peppers will happily consume habaneros or scotch bonnets with no ill effects.
Where did jalapeno jelly originate?
jellies come in many different forms.
Gelatine (called jello in America) is a naturally occurring substance originally from pigs feet with an added fruit flavour.
Jelly preserve AKA Jam: is sugar, pectin (from apples) and fruit.

Are jalapenos still hot without seeds?
As jalapenos and other green chiles ripen on the plant, they usually gradually change from green to red. Red ripe jalapenos have a slightly different flavor than green ones, but most people find them even better because they get a more complex flavor. You don't see many red jalapenos at regular super markets because they are usually shipped very green to make them have a longer shelf life and bruise less during shipping. The flesh of very ripe jalapenos can be a little thinner than green ones, so they may not be as good for stuffing as green ones are. They can substute for each other in most recipes. If you have heard of chipotle chiles (pronounced "chip-OAT-lay", they are ripe red jalapenos that have been dried and smoked and then often canned in adobo sauce, but you can also find them in their dried state without sauces.
Is this how you spell jalapeno?
In an English spelling bee, you would say j-a-l-a-p-e-n-o because the tilde N (ñ) has no name in English and is considered punctuation of the loanword.
In Spanish, the ñ has a separate name (enye, pronounced ayn-yay), but of course all the other letters are pronounced differently as well.

It appears to be a Kraft Foods Canada product, so any large supplier in the northern US should have it.
The substance that gives chile peppers their intensity when ingested or applied topically is capsaicin (8-methyl-N-vanillyl-6-nonenamide) and several related chemicals, collectively called capsaicinoids. Capsaicin is the primary ingredient in pepper spray.
When consumed, capsaicinoids bind with pain receptors in the mouth and throat that are normally responsible for sensing heat. Once activated by the capsaicinoids, these receptors send a message to the brain that the tissue has experienced heat. The brain responds to the burning sensation by raising the heart rate, increasing perspiration and releasing the body's natural painkilling chemical, endorphin.
The intensity of the heat in a chile is measured in Scoville units.
