White cockatoos scream for many reasons. They might want you to see them or hear their sounds. If they are not happy, they will make loud noises, too. Sometimes, if a white cockatoo is bored and has nothing to do, it can start screaming loudly just because of that boredom! Other times, it could be that the bird’s home is stressful like if there’s not good food or someone harms it, then a lot of screaming happens.
Some kinds of white cockatoos, such as Moluccan ones, also tend to be very noisy most of the time and can appear to suddenly burst into screams even when nothing seems wrong with them! It’s important to keep your pet bird busy so it doesn’t get bored – this will help cut down on all their yelling and keep things quieter for everyone!
