Thanks for the warm welcome
My Ducorps Cockatoo is almost 3 yrs now. The reason I chose a Ducrops ( I did A LOT of research ) was because they are the quietest of the Toos. He cried (a funny whinning sound) when he was a baby - for about 7 months, and if you can get past that then you are good to go haha. *you can youtube some clips of ducorps crying, poor little things haha*
I had an African Grey before but lost her in an accident (heart breaking) and I decided on a Too this time because they are so much more cuddly than the Greys. My little Grey was amazing though!
Stitch (my too) is a complete clown. He LOVEs to do tricks because he knows he will get attention haha. He swings upside-down on my finger shouting "upsydon" (as close as he can get to up side down) and then immediately jumps into my neck for a cuddle (his reward when he was learning the trick). His biggest addiction is peanut butter which he gets on special occasions. When he sees the peanut butter jar coming out he shouts "turnaroundturnaroundturnaround" while running in little circles. Then he stops and says "GOODBOY!" before he gets a little peanut butter on a spoon. At one stage he remembered where I stored the peanut butter, snuck into the kitchen and learnt how to get the lid off!! I found him with his head in the jar COVERED in peanut butter. My Word!
He sings to the songs we play at home (I have some amazing videos I will put on Youtube and then share with you guys).
He is gentle and sweet and I love him so much
He definitely has me very well trained
There were no Ducorps breeders in my area so I had to have him flown in when he was a baby. He spend almost 8 hours in a little (very well kitted out) shipping crate and arrived relatively calm. It only took him a day to settle down after the flight so I thank the breeders for doing such a good job at shipping properly. There are no short cuts when kitting out your shipping crate!
I am not 100% sure how to upload photos yet, I thought I did yesterday but they aren't showing up, in the mean time here is a link to my album of Stitch

) is a very lucky little boy because he is out of his cage all day long creating havoc around the house.
