Beautiful birds I love the Too's but Greys are easier to share your home with. I'm sorry, I can't agree with that, [i don't mean this negative] our Grey's are so much harder to please and amuse then our TOO's. It's all how their raised.

Greywings Posted June 1, 2010 Share Posted June 1, 2010 (edited) I'm sorry, I can't agree with that, [i don't mean this negative] our Grey's are so much harder to please and amuse then our TOO's. It's all how their raised. Our Umbie male has been in a few homes prior to here and he is a toot. He goes into nija mode and goes after selected people and other birds dangerous behavior. Good for me, daughter and youngest son but he is the most likely to bite hard of all our birds and needs the most careful watching. I can have the Elanora and all three Greys out of cage at the same time with minimal negative interactions. Umbie boy flies to target, eats well and is very affectionate but is the best escape artist and the most destructive as well. I love him too but he is a challenge sometimes. So in our home the Greys are easier. Each bird of each species is unique. Edited June 3, 2010 by Greywings Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JillyBeanz Posted June 1, 2010 Share Posted June 1, 2010 I have never, ever seen one of those Palm Cockatoos ever! I've never even heard of one! They are absolutely beautiful - as are the others. I'd be really interested in finding out more too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jayd Posted June 1, 2010 Share Posted June 1, 2010 I'm sure you know about our Freddy, he's almost 19, similar story to yours. He's really come around with a lot of work. This is a good example to show how no two bird's are exactly alike! That's why when someone asks me about a certain bird I explain all possibility with out saying " their all loud" etc. Ha ha, Our Mitered conure is our most destructive... Thanks Jayd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elvenking Posted June 1, 2010 Share Posted June 1, 2010 (edited) LOVE the image of the Palm Cockatoo, you just don't see one of those every day. If you have more pics of that one, please post them. Beautiful and uncommon. Also, how in the world did you happen upon one of those rarities? As I believe their numbers in the states are in the hundreds at most? Maybe someone could correct me.

Luvparrots Posted June 1, 2010 Share Posted June 1, 2010 Oh your toos are all so lovely. i am so jealous that you have a Palm Too. I can't wait to hear more about your magnificent flock!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jayd i am still looking for the answer for this birdie. as u said "not exactly either one! We have 2 rescues!" mind to share about it. thx @greywings, greys and toos ? i used to keep timneh when i were studied in LA, she was a one man bird. she was not getting along with my other amazons. while toos is very playfull and very active. they like to play along for awhile and like to scream to get the attention. while palms is the harderst toos among other to keeps. btw the toos in indonesia is very cheap compare to the price in States.

Greywings Posted June 3, 2010 Share Posted June 3, 2010 I have a friend who has two Palm Cockatoos and I am just that bit envious of you both. So many different species of Too out there in the world, any of you have Red tails or Roseates? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Birdnut Posted June 6, 2010 Share Posted June 6, 2010 What a beautiful group of toos. Your citron/goffin mix reminds me of our umbrella/goffin mix. The crest is a little different, of course. So we have a cockatoo, and now a baby grey. I'd have to say that, so far, the grey has been a bit more of a challenge than the too. But he's still a baby, so we'll see how things develop.

Guest jamalbirdbiz Posted June 22, 2010 Share Posted June 22, 2010 toos are great. i have a friend who has one called white one. he is a pretty cool bird but greys are cooler. at least i thinks so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But he's still a baby, so we'll see how things develop. I would have to say that among all the parrots I have experienced..a Cockatoo is the most gentle of the parrot class...but...the LOUDEST not doubt. A grey is certainly miles away from a 'too. Greys wear their emotions on their sleeves. It's all to amazing. Anyway, I am not suprised that you find your grey is more of a challenge. But you will learn to love this...because there are challenging moments..and real connection moments...Greys seem to connect so well.

Jingles Posted June 24, 2010 Share Posted June 24, 2010 my grey - so far has been super easy. He hangs out on his perch, hangs out with us. My too (umbrella) is a handful! my goodness! she's EVERYWHERE and anywhere. she does not like to hang out on a perch (we have a java wood table top perch for her) and she hardly sits on it. she's between chairs, on the floor, on the baby gate, getting into the blinds, the wood, walking everywhere, trying to bite our dog, Rocky on the leg...climbing on us, climbing on the couch, running around with her crest up...phew, i'm tired typing it all out! lol She does get loud, but i put her for a time out when she's loud. There is no reason for it, so I don't put up with it. heaven forbid when she starts flying. i'll get my energy out then! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
