Hi, i am new to owning a previously owned cockatoo. We were told he is about 4 years old, no more than 5. The 1st night he took to me and my husband instantly, but later that night he bit my husband quite bad (totally unprovoked) he is wonderful with me, more than I ever expected - I can pet him, love him, pretty much do whatever I want to him and he laps it up. He is great in his cage with the kids and my hubby, they can touch his feet and pet his head, but if he is out of the cage he attacks anyone else. We have not let the kids around him when he is out of the cage because our experience has been so far, that if my hubby comes in the room, or is in the room and I let Kasper out of his cage he screams at the top of his lungs at my hubby and often runs after him to bite him (this is the only time I feel a little unsure of how he will react to me - when it is just him and me you would think I hand raised him myself) he is totally comfortable with me. I am glad he will let everyone else come and see him in his cage but my dream would be to one day have him out with all of us, even if he only wants to be on me that is ok, I would just be happy if he would not outright attack everyone else when he is out of his cage! Any advice, I am sooooo sorry this is long but I wanted to paint a decent picture of what is going on! Thanks in advance!!! By the way, we have only had him 2 weeks today!
