My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

"COCO"
Goffin Cockatoo
Fostered by Karen A of Gibsonton, FL
No cage available at this time

Coco is a Goffin cockatoo and is approximately 3 years old. Coco is a very energetic and sweet bird. She is a little nervous right now in her new foster home, but she steps up nicely and is quite friendly, so we feel that with a little more time she will open up and be very affectionate. She is not a screamer but does like to vocalize various whistles and phrases including "It's a pretty bird". She does not seem to be bothered by other birds, but is a little wary of other animals, however, she is already starting to get used to their presence. She likes to walk around on the floor and come to visit you. She also likes to come out of her cage and sit on the door and dance! As you can see, she has plucked her chest, but she has down feathers coming in all over and we have not seen her pluck since she has been here. She is a little timid of new things at first, but is definitely curious about her new toys, especially the foraging toys, all of which she figured out the first day, so she is definitely very smart! Cockatoos in general are very intelligent, demanding birds that need a lot of attention and social interaction and Coco will definitely need that type of lifestyle to help her overcome her plucking issues. Coco has been to the vet and has been cleared for adoption, but we are currently working on converting her to a better, more nutritious diet. If you are looking for a gregarious, lifelong companion who will be with you for the next 30-40 years, then Coco is for you! Adoption fee $350
