    My cockatiel is very aggressive when around my new cockatiel

    Hello All, I have a cockatiel that is about a year old (named Mac) who has always been a sweet bird for the most part. Recently he has been more aggressive in certain scenarios but I am sure that is just because of his hormones and what not so I have just been more careful when handling him...

    Weaning and handfeeding

    So I bought these 2 babies (1- born sep 27 and 2- oct 1) and I had to take them home earlier than expected (on nov 7- so they were 6 weeks) and handfeed them myself as the breeder was travelling. I've never handfed or weaned babies before and so she taught me how to prep the food, how to do it...

    Cockatiel strange behaviour

    Accidentally forgot to check the chick crop before feeding, worried that I may have overfed. Advice?

    Hi, so I'm not a breeder, I used to foster baby birds for people who didn't know better than to purchase a <4 week old chick. All the chicks I helped with from 2 weeks to 9 weeks were always fine. I never panicked like this. My mom recently brought home a 3 week old cockatiel chick. Normal...

    Pictures Help identifying my new cockatiel

    I just bought a baby male (supposedly) cockatiel and was wondering if anyone could help me identify its mutation. Thanks in advance. Also any help identifying its gender would be excellent as I am unsure if it is actually a male.

    4 week old cockatiel refusing formula

    In need of urgent help I have been handfeeding a baby cockatiel (pulled at 3 weeks of age) and she has been accepting the formula without any problems before. Lately she has started to refuse the formula and started to take interest in seeds. I'm aware that it's possibly self-weaning but it's...

    Cockatiel eats everything!

    So I got Plato this Wednesday and everything is going amazingly well. Since Socrates already came sick I never really experienced what was having a real cockatiel. Plato seems very healthy, he's very active and loved the toys I gave him right away. Within two days he was practically fully...

    New bird, new worries

    This week I'm going to pick up a two month old pearl white faced Cockatiel, independent, an absolute cutie. I think it might be female but it's still too young for me to know and I'm probably not getting a DNA test anytime soon. Either way I'm going to name it Plato since my last bird was named...

    Best new bird to go with a male Tiel?

    Hi! I've made a couple posts here about my Tiel named Sam, and I'm thinking of getting him a brother later this year! I've heard a lot of different things about which breeds and sexes of breeds are best for a male Cockatiel, but thought I'd ask here as well. He's quite friendly, has had some...

    Safe food for a tiel?

    Just wondering if things like garlic are safe for my tiel? He's 5 months old, male, named Sam. He wanted some of my garlic naan but I was unsure, so gave him a tiny bit(no bigger than my thumb) with no garlic on it. For future reference, is garlic okay or no?

    Video What's Does This Sound Mean?

    So Charlie will be 4 months old in 4 days and he still makes what I call his "baby noises", which I assume is normal. He doesn't seem to be asking for anything though; I've tried offering him seeds, pellets, water, even warm oatmeal for comfort, but he shows no interest, the only thing he will...
