Hand-Reared Bare-Eyed Cockatoo for sale

The Bare-Eyed Cockatoo is an excellent choice for experienced bird owners who want a cockatoo’s charm without the space requirements of the larger species. These birds are extremely playful and acrobatic, loving to perform tricks and hang upside down. In the wild, they are native to Australia and southern New Guinea, inhabiting open woodlands, grasslands, and arid regions.

Care Requirements: As a highly social “velcro bird,” they require 3 to 4 hours of daily interaction outside their cage to prevent destructive behaviors like screaming or feather plucking. Their diet should consist of a high-quality pellet mix (at least 50%), fresh leafy greens, root vegetables, and fruit, with nuts given sparingly as treats. All cockatoos produce a fine “powder down” for feather health, which may affect allergy sufferers. Weekly baths help keep their plumage shiny and healthy.

With proper care, these intelligent birds can live 20 to 30 years or even up to 50 years, making them a long-term commitment
