Meet Tom & Tina

Tom & Tina are offered as a complete adult male-and-female Major Mitchell’s Cockatoo pair.

Both birds are 4 years old and have been described as hand tamed, cage trained, weaned and DNA tested. Their established handling and training provide a foundation for their new owner to continue positive-reinforcement training and regular social interaction.

As with all parrots, individual personality can vary. Prospective owners can request current information regarding Tom and Tina’s handling, behavior, daily routine and interaction preferences before purchase.

Major Mitchell’s Cockatoo Temperament

Major Mitchell’s Cockatoos are intelligent and active birds with distinctive personalities. They can be affectionate and interactive with familiar people while also retaining the alertness and independence characteristic of cockatoos.

They need daily mental stimulation and physical activity. Appropriate toys, foraging opportunities, climbing areas and supervised exercise can help provide an enriching environment.

Because cockatoos can be vocal and require substantial attention, prospective owners should consider whether their home environment is suitable for a pair of large parrots.

Tom & Tina – Personality & Training

Tom and Tina are offered as hand-tamed adult Major Mitchell’s Cockatoos.

Their new family can maintain and develop their training through:

• Gentle daily handling
• Positive-reinforcement training
• Supervised out-of-cage activity
• Foraging games
• Bird-safe chewing materials
• Interactive toys
• Consistent daily routines
• Regular social interaction

Continued enrichment is particularly important for intelligent parrots because it gives them opportunities to explore, learn and express natural behaviors.

Diet & Nutrition

Tom and Tina are fully weaned and can continue on a balanced adult parrot diet.

A suitable diet can include:

• Quality formulated parrot pellets
• Fresh vegetables and leafy greens
• Appropriate fresh fruits in moderation
• Controlled quantities of suitable seeds
• Appropriate nuts in moderation
• Fresh, clean drinking water

A varied diet is preferable to relying exclusively on seeds. Portion sizes should be appropriate for each bird’s body condition and activity level, with dietary adjustments made in consultation with an avian veterinarian when necessary.

Cage Training & Housing

Both Tom and Tina are cage trained.

Because Major Mitchell’s Cockatoos are active birds with strong beaks, their enclosure should be spacious, secure and constructed from bird-safe, durable materials.

Their environment should include appropriately sized perches, safe chewing materials and enrichment toys. They should also receive regular supervised opportunities for exercise and interaction outside their enclosure.

Health & DNA Testing

Tom and Tina are offered in good health and are DNA tested.

DNA testing can verify the sex of each bird, while a comprehensive examination by an avian veterinarian is the appropriate way to evaluate an individual bird’s health.

We recommend that new owners establish care with an avian veterinarian and arrange an appropriate wellness examination following acquisition.

Applicable DNA records and other available documentation can be discussed with prospective buyers.

• Daily social interaction
• Mental stimulation and enrichment
• Safe exercise opportunities
