I have gone to a pet shop & seen this beautiful 1 yo scared white Cockatoo. He was in a conner cage, as he was a biting bird, no one wanted him, in fact he was abused, as I seen him people hit him!!! It broke my heart.
I decided to buy him to rescue him. It took me time to make him stop biting (once I ended up in hospital, he bit my hand....)
Now, he does not bite, he does cuddle when I hold his feet, but once he is 'free' he does not sit still, he flying back to his cage, in fact in wants to go INSIDE all the time.
Only sometimes he 'screems', otherwise he is so quiet!
How can I make him to play and talk?? Make him happy? Now with the bird flu going around I was advised not to take him outside as other birds will be attracted and he can get sick.
Poor thing. He is beautiful now, feathers full, however he is still so scared. When he flies away and ends on the floor and I wish to pick him up, it is as if he want to bite, however I just take his feel and he is ok.
