It’s amazing how smart these birds really are. One of my friends adopted a very badly abused Cockatoo. The previous owner had all their animals taken from them. With love and patience and pet therapy ( yeah I didn’t even know that was a thing). Now he loves to snuggle and asks to be preened. He says “ scratcha scratcha?” His latest trick is to go into the kitchen sink. My friend just redid her kitchen and got one of those faucets that turns on when you put your hand under it. So he gives himself showers when he wants. He’s a handful but completely lovable. He still curses like a drunken sailor and freaks out if her boys rough house in front of him. ( The home he came from had a lot of physical violence that he witnessed). But he is just blossoming in their home. Love heals.
We need more people like you thank you for taking the tine for him alot of love amd patainces goes along way you have good souls yoir awesome keep it up
@@lawanahultquist9342 Or chew on Dan the Dad. I bet that if Max chomped a couple times on Dan he would find himself in his home (aka cage) for a while. When they really bite it really hurts. But the beak is also their hand, so they can hold one of your fingers and be very friendly.
When we were little we always had parakeets. They all talked and would talk in four different pitches so we knew who was talking. They were all very clear in their speech. I have loved all birds. And have had dogs but as an adult never a bird because my husband was not a fan. It was not right to bring a bird into a house where only one adult wanted them.
Who can get mad at such an cute lil birdie like Max? Let alone stay mad at him when he say hiiiiiiii in his own special way. Have great rest of your weekend and new week ahead.
You are such a good dad to Max. I'm positive if he could tell you thanks he would say thank you for how you have rescued him and saved him and enriched his life beyond how he ever could have hoped. You are an excellent birdie father. I hope you're very proud of yourself. I'm pretty sure everybody who watches your channel is very proud of you. I'm pretty sure Max is proud of you. In his own way. Hahaha
Colleen F I hope that Dan has a very long and healthy life because I could never see Max with another person. I don't think that anyone could care for Max like Dan . Thank you Dan🙂
This video is almost tear jerking. This beautiful, emotionally sensitive creature is almost just like a human child (kudos to you for training this amazing bird- half his personality must be because of you!) Max is so sorry for the mess he made (I can see that he knows he’s in trouble when you use a “Maaax” you’re in trouble-) voice and his attitude completely changes. He knows...) and brings you that piece of wood. I think it’s amazing that for all that chatter, in that moment he’s completely silent... trusting you to understand him and his emotional dynamic completely. Incredible bond with you and your bird, a complete & moving inspiration. Just goes to show how amazing these creatures can be when given a whole lot of human love & attention. 👍👍👍😄❤️
Caroline Tran welcome! If you have any questions, ask and any of us flockatoos will answer you, and sometimes Dan will. If you haven't already, watch the q and a video which provides a lot of info about Max, like his story.
I had no idea they were this smart. It's easy to see love one another. Thank you for putting a smile on my face. You guys are lucky to have one another. Love watching him.
This is a convincing argument both for and against getting a pet bird. That's a huge mess, but it was made so adorably that I'd clean it up just to see him make a new one.
AchingScaphoid and the bites and the screaming. That didn’t stop me 😂😂 I got a dusky conure and he’s more than enough. Idk how people handle macaws or cockatoos..
Max!! What a great MESS you’ve made for your daddy! Dan, you must be soooo very proud of your little boy and his mess making abilities. He’s got it down to perfection.
I said to my family you have to subscribe to Max, he is the most addictive little guy in feathers you could ever meet. He is smart, funny, adorable and most of all extremely relaxing to watch. His owner Dan is also amazing, he brings the very best out in little Max and they are a duo made in heaven.
These birds are for a special sort of person. Living with a cockatoo is much like having an infant, if the infant could reach anywhere and anything in the house, while equipped with a set of bolt cutters or a demolition hammer. I love Max!
oh my, this is when I met Mr. Max, he is just adorable!!!!!! The way he talks, his low tones , all of his words are great!!!!! Glad to meet you Mr. Max!!!!!!xoxo
When Dan said "Hello" to Max at 4:17 And then Max said "Hello" back to Dan at 4:19 , it made me laugh like crazy!!! Max was walking with his head upside down as he was saying" Hello" back!! I was dying!!!!
OMG... that 'impish' little guy was very busy. What a mess!!! I absolutely love that deep voice Mr. Max uses when he's having a conversation with you. I wish I could hug and kiss him. 😘😚
I realized while watching the video with Max, walking up and back into the bathroom, that I had a big smile on my face! Maybe, it’s how he moves his head to turn, or his funny scrawny pidgeon-toed feet, but I found myself wanting to laugh out loud. Also, the matter-of-fact way you speak to him, is really a funny way to show that you, too, can be funny! I wish that birds were easier to hug‼️‼️
Dan, you are such a sweet daddy to Max!! I love your patience with him and his messes. His lower voice sounds exactly like you!!! Thanks for sharing your Max!
Max has such good parents to love and enrich him even though he just inconvenienced them. I know a lot of people who would be mad and try to punish the bird, rather than knowing this stuff is their natural behaviors.
Did you rescue him from a neglectful situation? Is that why he turns in circles? He is a treasure and you are a great father! I hope he has many more years with you.
Max is such a cutie pie! :D I love the way he looks at Daddy, like he wants him to leave, so he can get back to his mischief making! LOL ;D Love the close-ups of Max, with his sweet little birdy eyes and head tilt! ;D
Max is adorable. Around 5:00 minutes, I think he is saying something about "go to the vets," and when he lowers his voice, he is saying, "I am Sorry.". He seems really sweet!
He does seem to be apologizing and rationalizing why he made such a mess. These birds are amazing in so many ways. Max and Dan, you have gotten my day off to a wonderful start.
Max's little tilt of his head and side-eye. That's a nice way to start my day. I love how you run. Dare I say pigeon toed. Is that an insult? I don't mean to insult you Max. Love you Max and Hiiii! 👍😁🤣😍💜
Max really put on a show of his own tonight. He sure can be extra cute when he wants to. Lol! He’s a good companion to have. You won’t get bored...ever.
Wising you many years of joy with Max. He's a treasure beyond price.

That's nice, thank you! Not everbody has the patience it takes for these birds. I'll stick to a dog or cat.
So sweet glad he found love 💖

You can tell Max is a happy bird because he doesn’t pluck his feathers. Love the way he chats I don’t understand him but it’s funny to here him. 🥰
Hello Diane. How are you doing today?
@@JefferyClifford-js8dj I’m doing fine thank you. Have a great day.
@@dianepicard6198 glad you’re okay. I’m really depressed right now lost a coworker. Where are you from?
@@JefferyClifford-js8dj Are you feeling better, Jeffery? Hope you are fine now, or at least better.
Max has a simple philosophy, I make a mess to keep myself busy, Daddy cleans my mess to keep him busy.
Max is just making sure his dad isn't bored.

😂😂😂
And that's why Max is a badass... :D
This can be interpreted in such a terrible way and I hate it
I love Max so much. I love when he gets excited and flaps his wings and mumbles. Such a sweet little boy.
"Hello"
"Hello"
"Hello"
"I wasn't talking to you"
I thought he said " I'm talking to you" ??

If he wasn't talking to the camera man, I'm a little worried as to his sanity.

Haha who made the mess? Immediately twirls around “Hiiiiii” 😁 👀
I Think Max knows hes been bad. So he acts cute to get out of trouble.
andy pete I don't think there is anything that Max can do that would honestly get him in trouble other than chewing on his door in his room
andy pete Exactly! He's one smart bird.😍🤣💜

Walk with your head sideways. It gets them every time.
And I think, this is stupid thinking. It's an animal, they don't have human categories
I have so much respect for exotic bird keepers, such a hard job to do right. I know I couldn't do it.
Would max rotate the other direction if he were on the southern hemisphere?
😅😅😅😅
Lol
LOLOLOL. Good question. Let's ask someone Down Under!
@@craftsandstuff3349 nice
Really freaks you out the first time you see it.
Its crazy how much max's voice can vary in pitch and how many sounds he can do.
When we were little we always had parakeets. They all talked and would talk in four different pitches so we knew who was talking. They were all very clear in their speech. I have loved all birds. And have had dogs but as an adult never a bird because my husband was not a fan. It was not right to bring a bird into a house where only one adult wanted them.

_Cobb Knobbler_ Put animal in the same room as antique furniture - get mad at the animal. Seems logical.
Baychimo so true
Exactly, not the animals fault it’s the stupid humans’s fault.
Louisa Lewis I know!!! He's absolutely adorable! 💜

I know this was 2 years ago but I melted when I saw max go to Dan and put his head against his leg. 🥰
He’s precious isn’t he? My favorite UA-cam channel.
It looks that his lower voice a copy of Dan's voice is. It sounds nearly the same.
I thought that too! He was really mimicking Dan's voice a few times there.
Marianne Lemmen wow I thought the same thing watching this video!!!
That is exactly the way bird speech is working
I honestly couldn't tell who was talking, they sounded so much alike. Couldn't even see Max's lips moving. LoL
@@youresoakinginit2113 well lips yes
Max knows he made a big mess..and is using all his cuteness to distract Dan...
Just act really really cute and all is forgiven his low register hello is. Precious!!!!!
I had no idea they were this smart. It's easy to see love one another. Thank you for putting a smile on my face. You guys are lucky to have one another. Love watching him.
Max would be a great interior designer, I love the abstract look of the mess on the floor.
It looks like a welcoming home!
“Oh what happened here?”
“I didn’t make that mess!”
How sassy. He’s so proud of what he did too
Max worked hard on this mess and is very proud of his effort. He seems so happy! He wants to share it with everyone!
It's not a mess it's performance art!
Performance art! That's wonderful!😂
"Hi!"
"Who made the mess?"
"Hi!"
These tactics did not work with my ex.
@@susanhowell1673 😁😁😁
I feel like having one of these birds turns your house into some kind of bizarre circus of weird noises and destruction
I'd never sleep again lolol
Well yeah..🤷🏼♀️
It is. I own one of these weapons of mass destruction.
But what a way to go!
@@spiritualspinster4222 😂😂🤣
Looks like a hurricane hit with emergency sirens to follow.
Max has been very busy.
Elsa Ha! Yeah.
Elsa lol!!!
Walking video
I hadn’t seen this video before. It’s my gift for today! Thank you Max and Dan!
“See, what had happened was I was just using the bathroom, see, and these wood things fell down and see, hello.”
He is pleased with himself. And enjoyed every moment of it. Thank you very much
I love how he has this cute little "Hi!" but also does a deeper sounding "Hello" as well.
Max has such dynamic character traits. He's an amazing birdie boy
He knows he's guilty but he does not care. 😂
You and Max make a great pair. The love you have for each other is plain to see. I'm so glad you care for Max the way you do
Max you don’t have to explain anything! Just tell daddy to clean it up like the peasant he is LOL 😂 love you guys 😍💖
Or perhaps serf? Sounds more like servant.
You mean pheasant right xD
Lol so true
I love seeing Max's reactions and antics.
Looks like Max had a party and didn't invite Dan... Hii!! It's all good you'll be back in the toothpick business tomorrow Max 😎
Martha Carrigan 🤣💜
He is precious!! I love these birds. They are so full of personality and affection.
I heard him say "wood", "do you want to play", and his voice is getting deeper... must be his teenage years.
Lora Lynn Max is like 23 or 24 I do believe!
Birb is a durdy o man!
Lora Lynn I think he’s copying multiple peoples voices so some are deeper than other.
You can not help getting in a smiley mood, watching & listening to Max & Daddy Dan, 💕🤗
And my mood has just been lifted thanks to this gorgeous bird Max! ❤️❤️❤️

He is soooo cute. I agree.

Lovely start of my Sunday afternoon 😍♥️

I just love it when says Hi! So cute. He is a busy little guy.
At least it was a wood mess. 😊 He looks very proud of his professional construction work. 👍🏼
