Cockatoo's as pets? 10 points?
Yes i am fully aware of the conditions needed to take care of a large or even small cockatoo. I have read "mytoos.com" and has taken that into consideration. I am looking into a cockatoo tha's more stable mentally. I hear Galah cockatoos, major mitchells, black palm, gang-gang, red tail black cockatoos are most mentally stable. is that true. (of course 3 out of 5 of those i can't afford) I am ready for the commitment and have someone to take the bird if i really can't take care of it any longer (if i die) Which cockatoo is more quiet (as a whole i know all are loud) IM leaning toward the rose breasted, major Mitchell or black palm. (i have a friend who breeds them and he can hook me up with a black palm for about 1.2k$)which one would u choose. Are galah's more stable? can you please include pricing, temperament, pros and cons of each bird and a good care wbesite. Thanks! yes i have taken quizzes to find out and i got galah's or blue eyes. Are blue eyes relatively cheap (800 or less not including supplies or vet or toy bills)

After owning cockatoo and working with other birds I'd recommend a male soloman island eclectus over any species. Cockatoos-galahs can become very nippy. Cockatoos in general are very needy and loud birds. Male cockatoos can become very unpredictable and dangerous when they mature.

They need a LOT of attention. If you are a busy man, don't get these beautiful creatures.
