Yes...he was born in Feb. of '79 when my son was 2 yrs old.  My son is now 30 and he and the bird were raised together.  We named him Fred after Barreta's cockatoo on the TV show.   I laughed when my sister bought a gray cockatiel and got a book that said they live to be around 14 yrs old. ...lol 
The main thing we feed him is wild bird seed.  He picks out the seeds he doesn't like and throws them in the floor.  The seeds have sunflower seeds and other hard seeds that he likes.  He also loves scrambled eggs.
