Umbrella Cockatoo Named Max

Posted with permission from Copyright holder Sivholm whose description is as follows:
Max, a 40-45 year old wild caught umbrella cockatoo currently living at our store. Max isn't going to live more then another year or two, he is nearly blind, has heart failure, liver failure and he is extremely emaciated. All of this because for his whole life his owner refused to feed him anything but sunflower seed and safflower seed. We have to hand-feed him twice a day, which he doesn't always appreciate but we love him dearly.

I feel bad for the poor bird. I have a goffins cockatoo at home who is only 3 years old and its sad to see birds such as this with owners that do not know how to properly handle them. If a person cannot have enough sense to feed a bird healthier food, they should not have a bird at all.

@cherokeexp cockatoos are supposed to live longer, around 55-60 years.

I hate it when parrots are mistreated like that. My parrot is an amazon that our neighbor stole/rescued from her roommate. The bird was really neglected, and usually left to the mercy of a crazy 5 year old that would bathe the bird by dunking her underwater repeatedly.

Most people don't realize that you birds are VERY high maintenance, especially if you do it right. Don't get a bird if you're not up to the task. We've formed enough of a trust with our bird that her wings stay UN-clipped so she's free to roam where she pleases.

Go back to Youtube.. this is fucking pointless and doesn't belong on Spiked Humor. Vote me down all you want, you cant deny that shit like this is what turns a site into a bullshit thing like Youtube..

Having said that, that is a beautiful bird. We have a few birds, they're great pets. Specially fun to walk around in public with my cockatiel on my shoulder. Hopefully the bird dies peacefully with little to no suffering.

Regardless, this shit belongs on Youtube, not spikedhumor!

agree wif Entreri belongs on youtube. loverly bird n all and much respect to you for looking after it.

I was waiting the whole time for it to say something funny and it didnt say a thing.

we had a sulphur crested cocky (legacy of a great aunt who found it injured thing only had one wing)

It use to torment our dogs by callin em for dinner at all times of the day. When ever the phone rang you'd here it say " get tha bloody phone !"
