thats funny how you wanted a dog instead while dogs are a dime a dozen and cockatoos are like 1k each and i havnet found anyone or place selling any in years so i really dont know how you ended up with a fortuneate alterative
Where I was living at that time I couldn't get a dog, and liked the Umbrella Cockatoo's. It was sheer luck that I found Rocky, in a home where he wasn't wanted, and very neglected. It was fate!
He wasn't blind in this video, but soon after he developed cataracts and now he is technically blind...only seems light changes and movement, but not detail. He used to walk, also....I'd let his feathers grow out and he'd still walk back to his cage!
Yes, me too...where would we be without our pets? He does seem very content which is about a 180º from when I first got him. He makes it easy to care for him because he is so docile...even now with his impairment he is still happy.
hes so cute if i did that 2 my cockie i wud get my fingers bitten off.. lol my cocki lets me pet him but how do u train them 2 climb on ur hand without bitting it off ??
Thanks...some just have a very easy-going personality, Rocky has always been very docile. There are techniques to train your bird to step up...not enough room here to teach you, but training books can help! Good luck!
My Cockatoo, Daisy, is my puppy! She is just like a cuddly little puppy. Well, except for that beak...lol...but she never bites. She is a joy. Rocky reminds me of her.
birds should spoil us... and train us too:) my 2 birds have me very well trained.. and i want to put a video of my Victor on u tube.. he fetches when we throw things.. he brings them back and places them in our fingers.:)
that's awesome! I haven't taught Rocky many tricks, he had a pretty rough life before I got him, so I have always let him do his own thing. Now that he's nearly blind he does react better to things that I've slowly been training him to do. You should put up some vids.
Thanks, I've had him about 15 years now and he is very special to me. When I got him, he didn't like people because his previous owner neglected him. He's pretty incredible.
He seems very content he loves u

Cockatoos are great if you're ready to have a 2-3 year old that lives for 80 years. =P
I would love to adopt one, I just need a place without roommates or roommates that are bird lovers..!

The level of trust that an animal can give to a human always amazes me. Rocky is a very loved bird. He seems so content.

That's funny...I call Rocky a dog, or a puppy sometimes. People ask why...it's so hard to explain unless you have one!
blindtoo 3 years ago
Parrots are very different from any other pets. And Cockatoos are very different from any other parrot. You have to love one to understand them.
They are a mix between newborn baby, toddler, puppy, and screech owl! lol With a little monkey thrown in for our amusement.
