Ricki

Ricki is ready to rock your world!<br/>This charming, quirky cockatoo is somewhere in his fabulous 20s and full of personality. With a love for music, dancing, and chatting, Ricki is the kind of bird who brings energy and heart to any home--just don't expect peace and quiet!<br/><br/>Ricki has a few missing toes on one foot, but that doesn't hold him back. He's a confident climber who navigates his space with ease, especially when he has flat or rope perches to help him out. He prefers stepping onto an arm over a hand--it gives him a little extra stability, and hey, we all like what we like.<br/><br/>Once he bonds with you, Ricki is a total character. He'll greet you with a chipper "Hi Ricki boo-boo!" or request his favorite treat with "Ricki needs a cracky!" He even does a pretty good dog bark impression and kicks off the mornings with a sweet "Hi Ricki." His favorite things include Harrison's pellets, chewing on wood, grooving to music, and dancing when his foster mom sings.<br/><br/>Ricki takes a little time to build trust, so he's looking for someone experienced with large birds--especially cockatoos--who understands how to go at his pace and read his cues. He's made big strides lately: his feather condition is improving, and his plucking has decreased significantly with the right care and environment.<br/><br/>Because Ricki is loud and proud, he needs a home without shared walls.<br/><br/>If you've got patience, experience, and a love for big bird energy, Ricki might just be your new best friend. Ricki is available for adoption to Missouri residents only. <br/>Adoption Fee: $300
