JUNIOR

Question
I HAVE A CACKATOO, SINCE 3 YEARS AGO, MY BROTHER GIVE IT TO MY GIRLS. WE DON'T KNOW IF IS A FEMALE OR A MALE BUT WE NAME IT JR. AND THIS WAS A VERY HAPPY BIRD, IT USE TO SCREAM ALOT ALWAYS MAKING ALOT OF NOISE BUT SINCE 2 WEEKS AGO HE DOESN'T ANY MORE NOW IT'S SO QUIET I AM WORRY DO YOU THINK HE IS ON DEPRESSION....

Answer
Dear Veronica,
Your Cockatoo is not on depression, he might be though. Have you been telling Jr. to stop yelling? Maybe he got the point! If this does not answer your question, please ask your Cockatoo's vet. REMEMBER: ALL PETS SHOULD GO TO A VET AT LEAST EVERY 2 MONTHS OR IF NOT FEELING WELL!!! Also, ALWAYS research info on a bird before you get one!!!
