Description
Physical Description:
The umbrella cockatoo is medium-sized parrot, regularly found in the tropical rainforest on islands of Indonesia. When surprised, it extends a large and striking crest, which has a semicircular shape — similar to an umbrella, hence the name. The undersides of the wings and tail have a pale yellow or lemon color which flashes when they fly.
Average Lifespan: 40-60 years
Sexing:
Origin: The islands of Central and Northern Moluccas Trainability: Domestic hand-fed babies make excellent pet birds for dedicated caregivers. Arguably, these parrots are among the most affectionate animals on the planet! This is wonderful at first, but they quickly become like needy two year olds, craving constant attention and companionship. If you are unable to devote at least 4 hours of quality time to your parrot each day, then an Umbrella Cockatoo is not for you. They are extremely playful and acrobatic. Anything and everything is a toy to them especially if you don’t want them to have it. For this reason, we recommend a large variety of toys for your Umbrella Cockatoo and plenty of supervision during play time. They can learn to speak, but are often difficult to understand. Umbrellas will typically develop a small vocabulary of 5 or 6 of their favorite words and phrases.
Loudness: Cockatoos, especially Umbrellas, are among the loudest of the parrot species, so if you are sensitive to noise we would suggest looking into another species. These are certainly not apartment pets.
