BF forever

These two are inseparable. If I move Holly (grey) away from Frizbee, they both cry. Yes, even at cuddle time, they have to be held together.. These two are definitely not for those who are allergic to dust. hahaa

The most they would tolerate is being able to see each other across the room. They constantly mimic each other's noises, so now I can't tell who is calling or needs something

Good question. We had Holly for a few years prior to Frizzbee arriving. Frizzbee came to us semi weened, but I had to continue hand feeding to instill abundance weening. He was a people guy from day one, but didn't care much for Holly. We always made sure the two birds were involve together whenever there were fun involve (tricks learning / bonding time / feeding/treats etc.). It took almost six months before we trusted the two to be unattended. At first Frizzbee would play to rough, or preen Holly when she didn't want it. As time past, they learn what each others likes and dislikes were and adjusted. I would say 8 months- a year if I had to choose a date. What is interesting is that Holly was not a bird that liked to be cuddle much prior to Frizzbee. She doesn't mind being picked up, but touch her head or scratching her was not something she would enjoyed. That slowly changed after watching how much fun we have with Frizzbee during group cuddling time. At this time, Holly is more cockatoo than Grey! I can lay Holly on her back like I do to Frizzbee, and she enjoys a good old fashion belly rub.

Thank you for explaining more about them. It is so fascinating! They sound like quite the pair.

They are beautiful! Aren't you afraid they could fly away?

I suppose that it's possible they will both decide to leave me together.
