I actually really like cockatiels! The only problem is I don't feel as safe around smaller birds because they are more fragile and can get lost easier. I also don't like a cockatiels lifespan. I really want a bird with a lifespan longer than 50 years.cockatoos are definitely not calm! i am a strong believer that there are no beginner birds, but cockatoos are EXTREMELY difficult pets, and even harder for people new to birds and young people. also if you are looking for an emotional support animal, i don’t personally think cockatoos would be the way to go, because of the extreme noise, mess, potential behavioral issues, biting, etc. i would recommend maybe a cockatiel. it seems like you want a larger parrot, which i understand, but cockatiels are pretty calm and relatively quiet. i know this probably isn’t what you wanted to hear, and i’m not trying to seem rude or trying to stop you from getting a cockatoo, i’m just trying to let you know.
Anyway, thanks for responding! Sincerely, Adriana R.
