Hi everyone, I'm Drake. I'm back with Mickaboo. I had a great home and loving family, but I blew it. I couldn't get along with the family's other bird who had been with them for years. One of my nicknames is "Drake the Rake" because I am absolutely gorgeous and I know it! I'm a very confident 5 year old male (we think) umbrella cockatoo who loves to play, eat, flirt & destroy toys. I have very healthy diet of pellets, fruit and veggies, but what if really love is yams! Give a piece of baked yam and I'm a very happy bird. I am very partial to the ladies, but I can hang with the guys too. I am really rough on my toys too. Give a chunk of untreated 2x4 and I?ll change it into a pile of toothpicks in nothing flat. I don't talk much, I mostly say "hello" and "Momma" and make a bunch of other cute little noises. I also have a big jungle call that rivals any umbrella cockatoo, but I only use it when I am very happy or really need to express myself to the neighborhood. My only problem is I don't play with well other birds; I really need a home where I am the only bird. So, if you don't have any birds now and you're looking for a big handsome hunk of cockatoo, with lots of personality, and love of life, I'm your guy!

Notice: Due to the notoriously difficult nature of cockatoos, Mickaboo prefers that cockatoos not be a households' first parrot. If you intend to house a cockatoo, please research the following websites:
