Watch This Before You Get A Cockatoo!!
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 8 сен 2024
- This is NORMAL cockatoo behavior for many large cockatoos, especially if they are feeling hormonal, especially young males. More often than not, its several times a day. Every day. These little sessions can last much longer than this. They tend to have these little scream sessions at the end of the day at sundown... its a built in instinctual behavior. Nothing can change that. You canNOT have a cockatoo in an apartment or condo for this reason. Their scream equals the decibels of a jet engine.
All you can do is try to calm them and divert their attention. If they will not stop after a firm no, we put them in their cage and walk away. No drama from us so as to not give them any attention whatsoever. We turn our backs and leave the room. But as I said, this sundown screaming is instinctual so it usually makes no difference whether he is out, or we hold them, or sometimes even if we are not home (as seen on cams). And I just wanted to show that. Still we persist. Just as we do with any other bad behavior.
"THINK OUTSIDE OF THE CAGE".
Not just for your companions but for yourself. Explore enjoy, and enrich your life, take it all in!

**Make sure that if you get a pet bird they are from a shelter or are captive bred** 
Животные
I will add to this, that we talk often on the phone, and because Onni and I speak on the phone quite often, as well, he always wants to talk to me, so she can be, literally ANYWHERE in the house, including the basement, and he can hear my voice, and begins to yell "HELLO" and gets more and more insistent, and louder. His hearing is THAT good. The only way to peacefully resolve it, is to include him in our conversations for a couple of minutes, until he feels his needs have been addressed. Then, he goes on his way and does his calm birb things. He is THAT smart. You may call it giving in to him, but we call it including him, and addressing his needs, since he IS a captive bird, and is a part of the family. I address my dog's needs the same way.
We also leave the room if he refuses to stop so the behavior gets no attention.
In addition if he bites, we immediately stop what we are doing and without drama to give him attention whatsoever, we put him back in the cage, turn our backs, and leave the room.
Onni just letting the whole world know that he is there!!!🥰
💙💙🕊💙🕊💙💙
I love this. Our animals are a part of the family so we treat them that way. If it was a 3 year old child we would do that. And Onnie is going to be 3 a long long time.😘
Someone thinks he's a chicken
@@servicedogkyzanna1761 That's one reason I love Rebecca and this channel, she's honest about the challenges of having a cockatoo. She doesn't just show videos of Onni being cute and sweet, she also shows the bratty side so people see its not quite as easy as some people think it is. (It is definitely worth it, though)
birdie screaming while owner is trying to watch a movie on prime video
Ah yes, a perfect recreation of my brain after too many overtime shifts…(love you Onni~ ❤️)
Owning a bird is hard work!!! You need to remember that they are still wild creatures!!! Onni is fortunately blessed with having a wonderful family who loves and cares for him very much!!! Either way he is such a treat to watch!!! Take care Stout family!!! Hope the water is receding from the rivers and creeks due to tropical storm Fred!!!😔
Thank you
Let me add that even feeding wild birds in your yard is hard work. You have to lug around heavy bags of seed and frequently clean and sanitize the feeders and birdbaths! But they are well worth it.
@@strangepattie I was doing just that up til 2 weeks ago. Maintenance man knocked on my apartment door, there was a dead sparrow next to the tree that's in front. I had to take the feeder down. He said there's some kind of virus going around different birds. My mom said the same thing. This was new news to me, I had no idea & it scared me. Now, I just once in a while throw a handful out in the bushes
@@gloworm6387 where I live, that disease has not come. Right now I am watching a Carolina wren and male bluebird at my live mealworm feeder. I feel lucky that I can still feed birds and hope you will soon be able to get back to it!
Perpetual two year olds with a can-opener on their face... Perfect description of a parrot
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA..........
Sounds like an alarm call to me. Is there a squirrel or some other creature "out there" that is motivating Onni to tell his flock: "Pay attention to the threat!"
It def was an alarm call at some point. But then it just turned into one of his typical scream sessions. He has one every night, along with one or two during the day.
@@RebeccaStout You sure it wasn't a Bidoof he was screaming at?
And yes. I did just end that question with a preposition.
ONNI!!!📣🙉🔇 Omg, Rebecca, I don't know how you guys deal with that. That's insane. God bless you! 🙏🕊🏆💞
But this is the parrot 🐦 nevertheless,not fishes
Thank you Scott & Rebecca for posting this! You two are awesome pet parents!!! ❤ I LOVE how you are truly educating those who want a novelty, and the second this would happen, they would discard them..... Thank you for loving and caring so beautifully for precious Onni, and keeping it real for those who would just easily give up. Great video! I love Onni and your wonderful family!
Thank you for the support!
I’d love a cockatoo but I know there is a lot involved in looking after them, I have to say there were parts of this video that really made me laugh 😂 I love Onni ❤️ do you rent him out I’d love him to keep negative people away from me 🤣
Understood. I couldn’t have one but still love them. ❤️❤️
They are certainly not apt pets - stand alone homes only 🥰
I appreciate these comments, as I have told others- I am hoping it makes people think- they live a long time, and you are sooo very correct, they cannot be in an apartment, and in some cases, not in some neighborhoods, given the HOA, with the noise. Your comments, hopefully, make people think- Thank you- SDK
all that screaming and he looks content with his happy feathers.
Glad to see that I am not nuts regarding my Babes. He can go on an on when he gets huffy, but I still love him and would not give him up for anything.
Onni is a warning system 🤣
Ya'll are patient, nurturing people. "He's finding his voice" haha
He is being himself.💖💝💞
Awww Onni loves his fam. My Shepherd howls when I'm talking to people on the phone. lol it's funny but yikes my ears
Rebecca: how bout if we sing lalalalaah
Onni: *AHH AH AHH AHH AHH AHH*
Well that was almost Lalalalala.😄
I wonder what Onni would do if you decided to start imitating him noise-for-noise just for fun. 😆
Also, just so you guys know, Scott (her husband) saved her. She dashed into a bedroom, and he jumped up and got Onni, and put him up. No more freedom for naughty birds that go after people. Thank you Scott!!!
In direct proportion to how much you want him to be quiet(er), his volume, like any kid increases. ❤
Absolutely, lololol
„Are you done?“
„Calm down woman, i‘m just taking a short destruction break. brb“ 😈
I always like to scream alongside my cockatoo -- healthy and mutually supportive flock behavior.
Think how much healthier we would all be if we could scream for awhile every day.....
Onni sings the song of his people
😂 ❤
I am going to use this video for my landline voice mail. I get too many salespeople calling.
That is a fantastic idea, lololol
🤣 or just record it and hold it up to the phone when they call and smirk?
It's beautiful. Doesn't he have a parrot tree?🌳
I'd be saying STOPPPPP! 😂
Well, I see you survived the attack, 😮. Time out, Onni! Stay safe from Hurricane Ida. 🤍💖
I can just imagine what Onni's saying: "Oh, so people shouldn't get cockatoos, eh? What if I was a chicken? Or a dog? I can sound like those, too! HA! HA! HAAA!"
Seriously, it's so funny when he bobs his head and does the chicken clucks. 😂
"get down"...
Yeah my cocky gives me the same look? Like "wtf ya gonna do about it if I don't mate?"
Also the screaming all hours of the day is amazing when I'm on night shift :'D
Smaller problem, but I bought a cockatiel mug that says"I heard you the first time."
@@baskervillebee6097 Wow, I need one of those! LOL
Quit squawking, after 15 minutes it was night night, the curtains came down 'til it stopped , for The Late Great Romeo (cockatiel).
Cockatoos can make you go deaf
Thank you for posting what is the norm and reality of owning a pet bird.
They are magnificent creatures and can make wonderful pets but require a lot of work and patience. Onni is very lucky to have a family like yours ❤️
Thank you so much. I get flack for genuinely showing the negative behaviors that you sometimes have to deal with with most large cockatoos. Someone is always quick to say that I bring it on or am dealing with it wrong. That it's all my fault.
Also even though I show the negative things 3+ minutes several times a year ... some people only focus on that. They don't consider the hours of positive footage I show. They assume he's that way most of the time. So therefore I must be "doing it wrong". Even when I explain that other channels only show the good (because their channel is for entertainment or for other purposes), those people have their own various challenges but they keep their lives more private. I also explain not all cockstoos have difficult negative behaviors, however... some are far, far worse pets and camt even be handled. They are brilliant, individual, and wild animals. They are going to vary.
@@RebeccaStout Don’t even stress over those comments. I think it’s important to share the reality of owning any pet, but that’s just my opinion.
I try my best to educate others when it comes to owning a bird, that includes the good and bad.
Just keep doing what’s important to you and keep being real. ❤️
Beautiful, intelligent creature. Definitely don't want one - they're like permanent toddlers. But I still love watching birb videos :)
Poor Onni. Like being dressed for a party with nowhere to go, he is always sounding the alarm with no threat in sight!
Onni is just voicing his opinions. 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
I’d rather hear this than a baby screaming….no contest. ❤️🇨🇦
Onni is calling out to miss Harley...that is why he is so loud! He has to call to the other end of the globe..😋💘💌
YES LOL . She could teach him some manners
@@RebeccaStout Haha..yes..the influence of a good girl..!🥰
I think Onni and Harley would Make a perfect Couple💜💚
Rebecca: "calm down! There is no doggie and there is no chicken!"
Onni: "that is what I'm doing here woman! I'm calling the doggies and chickens!"
maybe he's acting as a car alarm
"can we have a pool dad?", "can we have a pool dad?", "can we have a pool dad?", "can we have a pool dad?", "can we have a pool dad?", "can we have a pool dad?", "can we have a pool dad?", "can we have a pool dad?", "can we have a pool dad?",
*I can see how that might get trying, but I don't think our Onni meant to be annoying. The screams and climbing' desire must be instinctive. Rebecca, you're great at refocusing, or trying to refocus our boy. Was he just restless? I guess touching the toys isn't permitted. You're okay, hopefully. 🤍💛🤍
Love it but on RUclips!!!!
Thanks for sharing...we love Onni
He's being a little stinker today.
Sounds like my daughter's Amazon Parrot.
Cockatoo love song, by Onni. He sees something with his eagle eyes. Maybe a dog with a chicken? Then…attack bird! Bad bird.
Hello. Have a safe blessed day! 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
OMG! What was that at the end 🤣?
It was what was coming...
I think he wants a day out under open sky
You start that carrying on at my house Onni, you gettin lead poisoning ole partner!!! Lol
Sweet sweet little Onni baby boy
maybe he wants to go for a walk outside lol
If he’s a problem for you there are plenty of people that would love to have him and give him lots of attention and lots of love.
OMGOODNESS! Need much patience lol
For me, Onni is just like my beloved little baby. Anyways as we speak or shout as he. It's nothing a big deal. I think u should not make scene of it, he is family right!
Onni you are a Character😊Love you Sweetpea💜
As well as being territorial as well as being an 1 person pet also can imagine the bite they nay give......
Years ago I was between pets. Thank goodness I did my homework. Learned they needed a lot of attention...would be gone too long during the day. Went to a place that boarded big birds..saw the amount of room they really needed and well the poops issue 😄...I might someday move into an apartment...others might not appreciate the noise. I got two cats instead. Still love the big birds though.
Thank you for this comment!!!! It is so very important that people do research when getting any animal, but especially one that is not considered necessarily "domestic", and one that may possibly outlive them. I love it when people like you comment, because it may educate others about why you chose the pets you did, and opted out of a large bird!!!!
So selfless!
Need to hit the reset button 😂
Nonstop cockatoo shouting 😆😆😆😆
My cat is jealous have this birb on and now my cats wants attention
That's funny, lol
Yep, watched it. I want a cockatoo. Wait...what was that at the very end?
He just didn't want to be pacified that day did he. My hat off to you folks.
He needs re-booting! 😄
Yeah his name would be Mud really fast around these parts....
Ya u tell who is ever is out side that it's your yard
Honestly Rebecca, I would open the door and say GTFO! Lol
LOL!!!!
I really like Onni, but, he seems to be getting where You can't control him..
Just hormonal during mating season, and a teenager right now- like a 16 year old boy. It will all be all right.
Geez..I hope he didn't hurt you...That looked like a full on feathery attack..Bad birb...💜
Scott saved the day, lol
@@servicedogkyzanna1761 Thank goodness he was there + quickly...Those beaks scare me...😱
Yes people, I'm here!!😄😄
LOL...I guess you didn't get a pet...you got a boss,or at least a manager...
Lots of 😘😘😘 from Brazil, where is pretty sure Onni has a fan...me.
Welcome, Brazil- SDK
He is warning you of danger!
Love watching onni stay cool 😎
The screeching and noise wouldn't bother me. It's the hormones. I have a Sun Conure and he is a big enough jerk during mating season, a large bird like a cockatoo would just be too much. I know my limits. Lol
I have A Jenday conure who likes to look out the window and offer his very loud critique on everyone and everything he sees. At about 33 years old, that's a lot of hollering. 😲
@@diannelavoie5385 That's amazing!! Loro's only 4, I hope I get to listen to him scream for another 29+ years. It will be worth it to have my little guy around that long.
@@diannelavoie5385 And Loro also has an opinion on everything! And he feels that he needs to share it.
Wonderful performance by naughty chicken
Hola Onni que tienes? Creo que quieres ir de paseo con tus papas! Que linda eres Onni te queremos mucho!!! 😘💕💕🐦 👍👍👍
"Loud Noises"!!
My neighbors pea fowl is enough. She's a noisy girl to.
Oh my! Cockatoo Sundowners?
Rebecca, are you okay? Did Onni get you again? Now I'm worried.
I'm going to put this out there. Always do your research when you're going to buy any parrot. They can outlive their owners. I myself have a quaker parrot yes he is 14 years old but he can live 30 to 40 years. People truly do not understand what they are getting into when they have a parrot they are a lifelong commitment. Okay here goes I've got more to say. His mentality is that of a two or three-year-old toddler. Basically if you are planning to get a parrot any size I don't care if it's the smallest parrot or the largest parrot in the world they have the mentality of a two or three year old child and yes you can correct the behavior but they're still going to be loud. You can't sit there and put a parrot owner down because of bad behavior.
Thank you for this. For the information, and for the support. Yes, Onni is a handful. She purposefully allowed this to happen, in this video, to show what can happen, and how long it can go on- exactly what you are saying. She has had birds before, Cockatoos, as well. Right now, he is hormonal, and a teenager. People do not understand large parrot behavior, or specific large parrot behavior, and really need to ask questions before judging- she is more than happy to answer any and all of them, that is why she puts up these videos- HENCE THE TITLE. It helps so very much when she gets the support from people like yourself- thank you so very much. I bet your Quaker is a darling- I have always loved them. Anytime you'd like to send her a video, it would be welcome. Have a wonderful day, Crystal- SDK
Ok
Sooo... this should've stopped me from buying one or encouraged to? 🤣
Lol I love these birds on the internet, but I don't think I could handle one. I get annoyed very easily.
i want a atoo!
Prime video seen🤣
Hi Becky 👋 ☺ 👋 ☺ 👋 ☺ 👋 ☺ 👋 ☺ 👋 ☺
Are you a friend from NJ?
@@RebeccaStout no Iam from Mad.WI...bye nowww
I think it’s good…..that people like you and parrot play house show what I life with a bird…..aspecially with a big bird…….like a cockatoo or other parrots is like……because these birds need a lot of special attention……all birds need a lot of attention but parrots need a lot more!!! And a lot of people pet them on there whole body what they should not do…..only pet them on there head…………….maybe he having a hormone thing……..?but love you ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️💕💕💕💕
She is a great gal. So educated and experienced isn't she. What she gives to the world. both with birds and people is amazing.
Onnikins, sweetie are you having a bad day? I’ve never seen you act quite like this. What’s the matter fella? What are you upset about? Onnikins have you seen a doggie that you’re not very happy with fella? You’re having a problem with chickens today to huh? Sounds like you’re just having an all around unhappy day today fella, I’m so sorry, I hope it gets better VERY SOON, I love you fella.😘😘😘
Stop lol that baby is perfect try a Jynday Conure lol now that’s patients 😆😆😆🤦♂️
I have a Sun Conure. At the moment, he's pushing things off my desk and yelling "No! Stop!" and laughing.

Are you ok Ms. Rebecca?
Yes, I am thank you. I've learned to be very fast
@@RebeccaStout 👏👏👏😊🌹
I've just come across Onni's channel, thanks YT. I'm a fan of Pebble and Kelly from Canada. Pebble is 26, I believe and swears like a sailor when s/he gets going. Herr first years were spent largely with a teenage girl and it shows. Kelly has a great way with Pebble, his calm listening and how he converses with her. This cautionary video is so important. The latest from Pebble & Kelly:

time for timmies!!!
Was that just not the most awesome thing??
Maybe he doesn't like what you watching on TV 🤷♀️ just saying 😂
When does it talk
I mean how long do you let him carry on before he gets smacked upside the head with a broom!?
LOL!! Or go at home with a fly swatter. Just kidding.
Girl.... let the bird go outside!!
where is Batbird Sunny?
Being an angel. What else would he be doing?
Batbiiiiiiiiird!
Never adopt a cockatoo if you like the quiet life! Yes, they’re cute and cuddly but they are naturally squawky. That’s what makes them a cockatoo ❤️
🤩🤩
