I mean, big parrots can easily live 70 years. But that’s not a bad thing, I’m always confused with people who want their pets to die fast.
But on average, parrots kept as pets die rather fast compared to how long they can live. Most people with cockatiels have them die before they are 20, even though they can live at least up to 35-40. But then again, you see how people take care of them and it’s no surprise that they die fast.
If your cockatoo lives long and healthy, it’s a positive thing, and it means that you and your wife are taking proper care of him. But you should hope for him to live a healthy hundred years!
yeah thats me. We are kinda unwilling parents as we inherited it from my father in law (before he died he just got to bad to take care of it). The little guy is a curmudgeon and kinda hates men (or just likes girls more) and we have a funny kind of competitive relationship. He struts in front of me and sometimes I back away to make him feel good. I just joke he is going to live forever and that he is might white angel of death over my shoulder.
