Expect to pay from $1,500 to $10,000 depending on the breed, the parents, and if it is hand fed or not.
They want lots of attention. LOTS. They make a mess. LOTS. They make noise. LOTS.
If you want one, buy it when you are young, get a HUGE cage, and don't be a renter.

The age you mention is how old they usually become in the free nature.
When kept caged by people around 30-50 years. We had one all my life, and it died 5 years ago when it was 27, fell from his stick and broke his neck
Horrible scream my mom told me (I was away) she said she would never forget that scream
