People tend to get a false idea of cockatoos because of their tidy look and fluffy plumage.
Alba cockatoos are relatively calmer than their smaller congeners such as Goffin.
They are birds who like to show off and get the utmost attention and to do so, they will dance, sing, tumble, sometimes cry excessively.
They also have their moments of relaxation during which they want to be cuddled and rocked.
cockatoos like alba birds are very demanding although good education involving life skills and training do help, but this does not lessen the fact that the cockatoo wants human attention several hours a day.
One should be absolutely aware that cockatoos that are poorly educated (mostly male) may become a dangerous animal by its size, strength, and his combative attitude.
Some of the types of cockatoo that are available are: Cockatoo Rosalbina (Eolophus roseicapillus) or Galah cockatoos.
Greater Sulphur-crested Cockatoo (Cacatua galerita).
Umbrella cockatoo (Cacatua alba).
Goffin's Cockatoo (Cacti gof-over).
Moluccan Cockatoo (Cacatua moluccensis).
Cockatoo is very nice but generally not a good speaker.
It is very intelligent and can learn lots of stuff.
These birds are noisy and tend to make the pecking chronic when left alone and unattended.
Cockatoos like to destroy everything that falls under their beaks.
Just like macaws, they have a very powerful beak which has added a remarkable dexterity.
These parrots are highly accurate to search out what is inside of an object.
They particularly appreciate the removable of buttons, pegs, and growths of all kinds.
As Cockatoos gets bored very quickly, you need a wide range of toys for these parrots.
They like to undo the knots, loosen objects or open the doors of their cages especially hooks, insert objects into another, screw and unscrew.
Often, cockatoos work on two toys at the same time.
Their beak is as sharp as a knife and they can totally destroy an apartment in less time than it takes to say the word devastation! These parrots do not like games that are complicated or require time and reflection.
They have a philosophy of immediacy.
Cockatoos want their playgrounds to be very clearly selected.
If the parrot does not have its own facilities for play it can destroy the apartment.
Ideally, the cockatoo should have more facilities in the house because it wants to follow its favorite human around.
Bringing it to forage is a good way to prevent depression and to the pecking, hence the importance of foraging toys like acrylic puzzle toys to encourage it to work for its treats.
To hold all the toys, and to deploy such beautiful and large wings, it is obvious that a very large cage is required.
