That's a good one!!
The first thing my wife taught our macaw was to poop on command, at first holding her over the toliet. Now I ask her to go poop before taking her out of the cage. Then, I take her to the bathroom every 30 minutes or so - more if I feed her which I try to avoid when holding her.
They tend to go about every 30 minutes. I'd wait 15-20 minutes after they eat if you plan to take her out of their cage. And of course, teach them to drop a load before removal from the cage or perch!
