All About Cockatoo Training & Care

The Moluccan Cockatoos are very beautiful, intelligent, lovable and affectionate birds. Moluccans are very aggressive chewers who need a steady supply of toys and perches to destroy. They have extremely destructive beaks.

They have piercing, loud voices, which can carry for long distances. They tend to vocalize at least twice each day in the morning and evening and are not suited to either apartment dwelling or closely spaces houses. Moluccans need roomy cages, exercise and things to keep them busy and not bored. They are one of the species more prone to feather plucking. They can be taught many tricks and some are very good talkers. In the early morning and late afternoon they can be rather loud when they call their flock/family.
