  1. Cockatoos aren't good first birds, and if the bird will be primarily your responsibility then it is probably not for you.  vistit the site www.mytoos.com to see why many of these majestic creatures are given up.  If kept healthy they can outlive, and who will care for him?  What will you do about college, a job?  Cockatoos needs hours and hours a day and are very demanding as well as noisy, and destructive.  They take up a lot of space and it costs a lot of money to keep them happy.  Many cockatoos end up plucking, and given up.  Many become hard to handle once they hit sexual maturity, and are given up because people didn't take it into consideration.  You may want to get a smaller parrot.  Perhaps a green cheek conure, senegal, meyers parrot, black cap conure, or a cockatiel.  All are small-medium parrots and aren't as demanding, expensive, noisy, or large as a cockatoo but all can be just as sweet and loving.


  2. A Too is a lot of work, more so then anybody can tell you about. a Lori is a sweet little bird. But your mom is not going to take care of the bird, is she? Will it be her bird or your bird? When buying a bird you must carefully think about all the time it is going to require. What about when you go to College, or after college. When you get married. A Too will still be there demanding as much attention as he does to day. Apartments, college dorms will not even allow a Too to live there because they are so loud.....

    Think long and hard about this because this guy will likely out live you...
