Hello! We’re new to this forum and to the parrot world! My dad got me Jeff the cockatoo as a surprise gift and we’ve been in love with her ever since. But they say cockatoos are more ”difficult” or “demanding” parrots, and are not recommended for first-time bird owners. So help me give him (or...

Hello everyone, Two day ago, we bought a 2 year old female Galah Cockatoo. When we went to look at her she was very happy to see me. I could take her out of the cage, dance with her and pet her. I wasn't scared of her for a minute. She even did not really want to sit with my boyfriend, she...

Hello! As all of you know cockatoos can be very very loud. I see plenty of websites making this very well known, and rightly so, as owning a cockatoo isn't for everyone, and needs to be very seriously considered. And maybe I'm just an oddball but is anyone else just completely unbothered/even...

Hi! I’m looking into adopting a parrot. I’ve only owned smaller parrots (conures) in the past. I have researched birds for years and believe I am ready to own a slightly bigger bird.

Hi, New register here with 30-year old very spoiled (aren't they all) Goffin's cockatoo. He's been picking more than usual this year and I suspect it's hormones. A fill-in vet recommended parrot red palm oil. Anyone out there try this? Pros/cons? Thanks!

I recently obtained the greatest cockatoo ever (my completely biased opinion!). She was gotten for free, but was apparently taken care of people who meant well, but didn't do well for her. Her foot was broken in the cage, her nails are wrapped around, and her feathers are horrible. She has...
