Yes, Outlaw, I think my breeder is excellent. In fact, she and I have become pretty good friends as a result of all my visits with Cooper and our having the time to talk about parrots. She asked me today if I would like to go with her to a bird club meeting in Southern Michigan where Liz Wilson will be lecturing. Of course I said yes! I really have no friends or family members who share my fascination and wonder with parrots. So establishing a friendship with Cooper's breeder is an added bonus to getting Cooper!
By the way, Cooper weighs 996 grams. The breeder described him as being a bit "chubby" and keeps saying how he is going to be a "big boy". She told me that he probably has about 2/3 of his adult size now. I know that umbrella cockatoos are categorized as being "large", but it seems funny to think of Izzy being in the same size category as Cooper. To me, Izzy is all fluff compared to Cooper. When he is on my arm, he is quite a load!!
And Willowbirdy218, thank you for your compliment. Nice to know that I am not the only one who thinks he is breathtaking!
