Description

This white cockatoo is native to Australia and southern New Guinea. In the wild, the preferred habitat ranges from arid deserts to coastal plains, but these birds are rarely found in thick forests. Bare-eyed cockatoos are often found in urban areas and agricultural zones and may be so prevalent that they create a nuisance. The bird was described and cataloged by English ornithologist John Gold in 1843. Bare-eyed cockatoo for sale

TEMPERAMENT
With a reputation for being goofy and clownish, the bare-eyed cockatoo is normally a very social bird that loves to play and interact with its owners. Intelligent and friendly, bare-eyed cockatoos make excellent pets for experienced bird owners who would like a cockatoo but don’t have the space to keep one of the larger species.

Among the cockatoos, this species is the best at mimicking human speech. It is common for a bare-eyed cockatoo to spontaneously mimic the vocal patterns of every member of the family.

BARE-EYED COCKATOO COLORS AND MARKINGS
Bare-eyed cockatoos are primarily white with touches of salmon-pink on their faces. They have horn-colored beaks and bare, gray-blue patches around their eyes. Males and females are identical, though males are slightly larger in stature and also have slightly larger eye patches.

CARING FOR BARE-EYED COCKATOOS
Although the bare-eyed cockatoo is a little less demanding than larger cockatoos, this is still a bird that is best suited for an owner who wants a constant companion. These birds crave social interaction with their owners and can resort to destructive behaviors if they feel neglected. Make sure that you have plenty of time to spend with the bird before bringing a bare-eyed cockatoo into your home.

As with all birds, the larger the cage the better. But even with a large cage, your cockatoo will need plenty of time outside the enclosure for play, exercise, and attention from you and your family. You serve as this bird’s flock, and your bare-eyed cockatoo will insist on interacting with you.

All cockatoos require regular bathing to keep their skin healthy and their plumage shiny. Carefully dry the birds in a warm room after bathing them. If you clip the wings, do so only on the primary feathers so they can easily fly and glide around the house. These birds will prefer to be out and about rather than remain confined in their cage.

FEEDING THE BARE-EYED COCKATOO
Cockatoos are prone to weight gain, so they should be fed a diet low in fat—fatty-liver disease can result, otherwise. Offer your bare-eyed cockatoo a fresh vegetable mix that includes leafy green produce, as well as root vegetables. Fresh fruit is a welcome and healthy addition to their diet, as are nuts such as almonds and walnuts. A formulated pelleted diet should also be on hand and available to your cockatoo. Of course, fresh drinking water should be available at all times as well.

EXERCISE FOR BARE EYED COCKATOO
Bare-eyed cockatoo for sale, like all cockatoos, needs plenty of exercise. If you want to keep this bird, make sure that you’re able to give it a minimum of 3 to 4 hours of supervised playtime outside of the cage each day. On top of needing a chance to exercise and stretch its wings, your bare-eyed cockatoo is a very social bird that needs daily time with its owners in order to thrive and remain happy.

Providing toys to these birds is very important, and teaching them that toys are a fun part of their lives will make a huge difference for both your bird and for you. A cockatoo needs to learn to play independently, and toys and activities that it can manage on its own will reinforce your bird’s independence, as well as give you some much-needed time off. Wooden toys, as well as toys made of leather and sturdy hemp twine or plastic rope, will give the bird an outlet for using its substantial reserves of energy. Ladders and swings will also help to mentally engage your cockatoo and provide it with needed exercise.
