Ducorps cockatoo as a pet

Ducorp’s Corella’s are common as pets. They thrive as companion birds in houses, but are also very content in an avairy. Usually they are quit and docile, but of course also this species will make a lot of noise when it feels like it. When these birds are used to humans from a very young age, they will become very affectionate to humans.
A Ducorp’s Corella can learn to imitated words and sounds, but they are not very good at it compared to parrots.
