Big objects do not ordinarily exhibit wave properties. This is because their level of quantum excitation is so large (of the order of 10^20) that they are composed of a huge number of uncorrelated states that exhibit no interference phenomena. In the case of superconductivity, or for lasers, a large number of electrons, or atoms, are in correlated states, and then large objects can exhibit quantum like properties.
