Cockatoo Birds for Sale
Cockatoo birds for sale are hand-raised, tamed parrots from the cockatoo family (Cacatuidae) - large, crested, highly social birds known for talking, deep pair-bonding, and lifespans of 40 to 70 years. At My Cockatoo Bird we breed and hand-raise ten cockatoo species, each socialised for handling and sold with a 100% health guarantee and safe delivery.
Our current collection ranges from the affectionate, beginner-friendly Umbrella and Goffin's cockatoos (from $800) to rare statement birds like the salmon-crested Moluccan, the bold Sulphur-Crested, the pink Rose-Breasted (Galah), and the prized Black Palm cockatoo. Every bird is raised in a home environment and many learn to mimic words and sounds.

Cockatoo buyer questions
How much does a cockatoo bird cost?
Prices vary by species and rarity. Our hand-raised cockatoos start at $800 for an Umbrella or Goffin's and rise to $12,000 or more for a Black Palm. Price reflects species availability, age, and hand-taming.
Which is the friendliest cockatoo?
Umbrella, Goffin's, and Rose-Breasted (Galah) cockatoos are among the most affectionate and beginner-friendly. All of our birds are hand-raised and socialised for gentle handling.
Is a cockatoo high maintenance?
Yes. Cockatoos are intelligent, emotionally sensitive birds that need daily interaction, enrichment, and space. They suit owners who can give them several hours of attention a day.
How long do cockatoos live?
With proper care most cockatoos live 40 to 70 years, and some larger species live longer, so buying one is a lifelong commitment.
Do cockatoos talk?
Many do. Umbrella and Sulphur-Crested cockatoos are especially strong talkers, while the black cockatoos tend to be quieter.
