Cockatoos are distinguished by their unusual, bright appearance and intelligence.

Moreover, these exotic birds have many advantages.

Therefore, there are several good reasons to have a cockatoo at home.

Smart and resourceful

These birds are easy to train and teach.

At the same time, they can easily be taught to speak. But in this case, you should not expect any great success from the bird, because it can remember only a few words.

These birds also perfectly repeat various sounds. However, you need to work regularly and reward the parrot with its favorite treats for all successes.

In addition, this smart bird can be taught to perform different movements or whistle a melody.

No wool

Parrots, unlike cats and dogs, do not have fur.

In this case, birds have a kind of “powder” made of small particles of down feathers.

Moreover, with proper care, the birds will not have an unpleasant odor.

Moreover, in the case of cockatoos, this will not be particularly difficult, because these birds love water procedures very much.

Easy to maintain

In this case, caring for birds is easier than for other large pets.

After all, they don’t require long walks or endless cleaning of the litter box.

The bird's cage needs to be cleaned every few days. The bird needs to be bathed periodically and its claws trimmed.

Otherwise, the bird will keep its feathers clean on its own, regularly cleaning them.
