JP> My blue and gold is protective over his cage. Only "daddy" can reach in

I have birds of both personalities...some I can't touch inside their
cages at all, others who'd RATHER have me reach in to pet them. But
fortunately, most of mine happily run outside and ask to be picked up,
so that settles the issue--I let them have their cages to themselves
except for cleaning days.
JP> Can you give me some history on the Elanora ?? Where they are from, their
JP>primary diet, etc ??
To be honest, I know little about cockatoos. I believe that the
Eleanoras come from Australia, like most cockatoos do. But beyond that,
I'm pretty clueless. My forte' is conures. Another user out here might
be able to help you--
CALLING FRAN WARWICK, are you around??? If so, what can you tell us
about Eleanora cockatoos???
