I,ve had sulfur crest cocketoo. he needed alot of attention or he'd scream(LOUDLY) and he out did the TV. He talked and swore. I had dogs he'd chase the dogs. After many ,many years I call the parrot club and they would put him on a adoption list. They said they already had 7 of them on the list. But my Cookie, found a home quickly. The gentlemen who adopted him had a huge bird room. and most of the birds where not in a caGE UNLESS THEY WANTED TO. Look up a Parrot Club in your area and go to their meetings lots of help given. Just my opinion, Good luck
