Where to buy a cheap cockatoo?

Answer 1

This depends on the country. In Australia, for example, cockatiels are commonly sold in pet stores and produce stores. There are many backyard breeders also, many of whom advertise in the newspaper section under "pets".

Answer 2

Many people have them as pets but generally the bird is happier with a larger aviary or allowed to fly freely. You can check bird breeders and certain pet shops.

Answer 3

TradeMe might be an idea. It is a very good site, and you could get a cheap cockatoo!! :) Thats the only one i know. Hope this helps

Answer 4

Depending on where you purchase a cockatiel from, it tends to average between $20 and $35 (Australian dollars). Young, hand-reared cockatiels are more expensive.
