Yes I thought you called them something different, but I couldn't remember whatOriginally posted by popcornbird
Zan, we call that a rose breated cockatoo here! OMG! I can't believe you have those in your backyard! You're so lucky! I'm sure you can tame them (even the wild ones) because they are very intelligent and one Australian on a cockatiel board I'm on said she tamed all the cockatoos that come in her backyard and they're very friendly, even come in her house sometimes! Makes me want to take the next flight to Australia! We only know those birds here as pets, so I can't even imagine them wild! When we went to get Popcorn and Muffin, there was a rose breated cockatoo there. It was BEAUTIFUL! I went up to see it, and it started bobbing its head and all of a sudden told me "HELLO! My name is Ruby!" OMG! He really startled me because I was NOT expecting that. I started begging for him, and my parents said well get him..............until they saw the price! $1,500!!! Is it illegal in Australia to adopt a wild bird as a pet, because all the parrots there are pet birds! LOL
Well, I'll have to get to work taming all the galah's in my backyard...that can be my next project after I get my new baby tiel! And LOL Ruby sounds gorgeous!!
I've only seen on galah here actually on sale as a pet, but I didn't see what the price was.
