Awesome, maybe you can teach him to say g'day mate.
Is he going to be just an aviary bird or a pet?
Congrats mate. Its on my list to get one as my grandfather had one for 28 years he got sick then passed away then major went within days.... very loyal birds

How much if you dont mind me asking.... for future reference...
Albino93 we have everything around here lol, you should see the mess in the streets once the corella's attack the trees and drop branches/leaves all over footpaths and roads, up to a few hundred fly over our house every day at dawn to go to the lake to spend the day there and then come back at dusk and man dont they let you know they are about lol
but these Major Mitchells out on the highway are awesome to see because you dont see them all the time and when you do its a bit hard to pull up and grab some photos not to mention we dont pop over the Mildura all the time but if we can ill try to get some photos one day, it just seems to be this one area they live in
Aww Albino, he's gorgeous! Lil bit jealous right now Give him scritches for me!

He is going to be an inside pet, i like to interact with my birds, so they become affectionate/tame etc.

Yeah i love how loyal they can be, tho this is actually my first cockatoo, (well besides cockatiels ) fun times ahead
He cost me $600 and $100 freight from QLD so all together $700. I can pm u the breeder if u would like?

We usually get over 50 corella's fly over our house around dawn and dusk making all the noise u could ever imagine lol we also get yellow tail blacks in our next door neighbours tree, they eat the grubs from inside the bark. Also get some galahs on the power lines and some sulpher cresteds (dont usually see them unless we drive 10-15 minutes away)
I do have a couple pics but not very good ones lol they are very interesting to watch.
I might have to come up that way one day to see the majors

He has calmed down alot since i got him, i can now hand feed him and he allows me to give him a small scratch around the head. Good progress so far.
Next thing ill do is try to get him to walk and sit on my hand.
