    Howdy everybirdy! I am looking to adopt a cockatiel hen to be friends with my lonely male 'tiel. I am located near Atlanta, GA and I am willing to drive a little bit. Please let me know if you are re-homing a hen. I already have a fully setup cage. :-)

    Urgent Cockatiel tail bobbing and red spots in poop (blood?)

    I've already been to numerous vets around the area, none could help because they can't run any tests except x-rays which shows no problem. She's 6 years old and her tail's been bobbing for at least a year now. She doesn't have diarrhea, her poops looks healthy most of the time. She doesn't have...

    Respiratory Infection?

    Every morning, when my cockatiel wakes up. He makes this weird exhale sound. He sounds kinda stuffy and congested. And what’s weird is that he always does it right after he drinks water. It lasts about 1 minute and then goes away. He seems to be drinking more water in the mornings than usual...

    Cockatiel botched wing clip help

    Growing the wrong type of feather?

    My 'tiel is currently going through her (or at least I think it's a her) first molt. Recently I've noticed that on her wings she's growing 1 feather that is longer and thinner than the ones that are right next to it, almost looking like a primary flight feather. She has one of those on each wing...

    Constant flock calling

    I have had this male cockatiel for almost 1 year, and he is 1 year and 6 months old. We got him at the local animal store, and he was never a social bird. We used to let him out of the cage and try to play with him but he would be aggressive and scared towards us. We got him a female, but since...

    Gramstain came with 95%+ Positive Rods, but droppings (Urine specifically) have bubbles (persisting).

    I must provide context before asking. We went to a Vet here because her droppings were bubbly. To be honest, the vet was not the best. It was dissappointing because He was supposed to be the best vet in the city who see's the Zoo too. But I'm thinking the vet's Gram Stain results should be...

I live in the Midwest so we’re only using the A/C and won’t need the ‘furnace furnace’ until fall, (and we will take birdy...

    Head banging and regurgitation (then eating it?)... normal??

    Hello! Curious if this is normal behavior or if I should seek a vet over this... (check linked video my cockatiel (male, 3yr old) for the past two or three days has been, what I can assume is, regurgitating. I don’t own any other birds. Ever since he was a baby, he’s absolutely LOVED to bang...
