![]() ![]() ![]() I know that shelters and rescues are full of them because they can be loud, obnoxious stink weeds, and they can also be aggresive towards other birds/animals.īut at the end of the day, I'd do it all over again, and I'd rescue another Show them your heart, and they will give you theirs. They can be territorial, and possessive, do not think about touching his stuff, because its his and thats all there is to it. I think a goffins are sweat and loving but they carry the same burden and work load a larger 'too does, however with any compainion animal, you get what you put into them, and that is especially true of any of the parrot family. I do not recomend them for city dwellers or apartment dwellers, just based upon the noise factor. ![]() I have read somewhere that a boeing jet can rach 150 decibels, but a goffin can reach 170. Mind you I am sitting beside the stereo so the radio muffles him, and he is 22 feet away from me. My one warning about a goffin would be the noise. I have a friend who swears I adopted a pterodactyl, he swears they used his voice for one of the animals from Jurassic park. He is very much a creature of habbit and if your a split second late, your going to know it. He is obsessed with Tinkerbell and has howeling fits if his movie is not in by noon. He has fits and he shrieks for no reason other than to see if you are still alive by checking your heart. He is needy, and demanding, he is a spoiled 2 year old in a feathered body. He loves music and loves to dance, and lets it rip every chance he gets! He is terrified of everything which I think comes with him being abused and neglected. Our goffin is a rescuse and we can pet him but he does not step up. I know this is an older post, however will post this in case someone else run across it.Ī goffin is a butt load of work, its rewarding work, however its still a chore. RainbowRose Parakeet Gender: Posts: 4 Number of Birds Owned: 0 Flight: No I'm hoping from the best, but I really want to be prepared. I contacted the shelter and the lady and I scheduled a phone call and then if everything goes well a visit. Do they usually scream night and day? Or do they just do their flock calls? I know a cockatoo is a cockatoo, but wouldn't the smaller ones create significantly less noise than the larger 'toos? Does anyone have a goffins? Is the noise level worse than a conure? I actually don't mind the volume of the screams, its the amount of screams. Pros Lively Affectionate Highly intelligent Cons Require lots of attention Expensive Speech & Vocalizations Compared to other bird species, the Goffin’s cockatoo is relatively quiet. I checked out a local shelter on and they currently have a 14 year old male goffins for adoption. Before getting my conure I had really been attracted to cockatoos, but because of the noise and behavioral problems associated with the larger 'toos I decided against it. Well, I've decided its maybe time to get another parrot, my house feels so empty right now. My blue capped conure died about six months ago, he was elderly when I adopted him and he had one heck of a screaming problem, but he was so lovable that I was able to deal with the screaming wanted to wait awhile to get another bird, I wanted to be able to grieve first. I'm new here and I thought I would kick off my membership by asking a question! I hope you don't mind answering! ![]()
