Housing Goffin Cockatoos
Keep your bird in a strong cage sizing 24 x 20 x 24 inches with a good locking system. Put inside some non-toxic and natural perches along with chewable toys, wooden blocks, tricky puzzles, and knots. Provide a constricted nest box of 12X12X36 inches.
Goffin Cockatoo Behavior
Funny, charming, and rarely aggressive, it has a habit of playing, climbing, snuggling, and cuddling all day long. Some Goffin’s cockatoos can learn to speak monosyllabic words. Your pet might incline dancing to the tunes. It becomes a little noisy only when it is either hungry or boring. Self-destructive behavior like feather plucking is commonly observed if it feels ignored. This intelligent bird is often escape-prone and can easily learn the trick of unlocking the cage only by observing you, keeping it under watch until it grows attachment with you and your family.
Feeding Goffin Cockatoos
Goffin cockatoos need a wholesome diet comprising vegetables, small portions of fruits, berries, legumes, and nuts. Hence, fruits and veggies fulfill their vitamin and fiber deficiency. However, this is not necessary to cook or treat the fruits as they love to eat fresh but veggies should be cooked as they have a very sensitive digestive system.
Caring for Goffin Cockatoo
Keep your bird busy with some brain-stimulating games and a few hours of out-of-the-cage time for its physical exercise.
Clipping the primary flight feather is also necessary so that it can at least glide instead of flying. If your children are allergic to dust, keep them away from this pet as it produces dander, i.e., feather dust.
These birds need large cages and maximum space to live in because they are adapted to live in open spaces. Hence, all cages that should be chosen for these birds should be done by keeping this in mind.
