Hi Bird people, I've read alot of the articles on here already about how to tame your cockateil and general care etc etc. But I'm afraid my little guy Mr Burns is quite unique. I adopted him from the animal shelter, he is missing most of the feathers on his head because apparently the other...

Hi, its been a while. So this post is about my female cockatiel, Chicken, because i have noticed some concerning things about her health just recently. First of all, i think there's a hole in her head. No, its not her ears, it's under her crest feathers on top of her scalp. It kinda looks more...

I have been looking almost over the internet for the bed in this video below but have found no luck. Please if anyone’s knows where to get it from tell me! Link: Thanks in advance! :)

Hello! my 13 year old male cockatiel has started attacking a toy recently. He will run at it from across the perch and open his wings and flair his tail and then bite it. He has been acting more aggressive lately and even biting me which he never does. Do I remove the toy like I think I should...

Hiya! a friend of mine is re-homing his fully tame 2 year old female cockatiel. She is a delight and i would love to give her a loving home however i have a pair of lovebirds that we are fairly certain are male, around 3 months old who we are hand taming ourselves . Has anyone had any experience...

A little background... I had budgies when I was younger, my husband had tiels when he was younger, and we have had a tiel for a year. I've always wanted other breeds. About 3 months ago we decieded to add a sun conure to our home, when we went to meet our baby we fell in love with a green...

I went the other day to pet shop/breeder and he was trying to sell pair cockatiel male and female 18 months old with layed eggs that are a week old, should I get them am scared the pairs would panic and get aggressive cus of the new environment leading to unborn cockatiels I want to breed...

Yesterday I adopted a senior cockatiel, from a rescue, who's owner passed away and apparently she did not know a bird could be handled and never took him out of the cage. He is taking treats out of my hand but will not move out of the corner of the cage. I sit and talk and whistle and he sings...

hey everyone, i need some advice. so last week i got myself my first ever parrot pet - a cockatiel. he’s a male and his name is luigi. i’ve read many guides and i have a general idea on how to take proper care of him. now, i know that it is strictly not allowed to put your hand into the cage...

Hello! I'm very worried about my bird, i recently got a new cagcage for him and he's been pooping red droppings. The blood isn't in the urine, but only in the poop itself. I can't really tell if it's bright or dark red. It's been about an hour and I'm not for sure if it's cleared up or not, some...

I was thinking on switching my 4 month old cockatiel, Mika, from his seed diet to a pellet diet. I've looked into some different brands of pellets but I'm still not for sure which one to get.. I feel like the seeds are a little too fatty for him, so far he won't really eat any other fruits or...

Mika has a tendancy to try and fly to me if I'm not handling him, though he is trimmed and usually falls to the ground and lot if I can't catch him last moment. Today I brought I'm into the bathroom with me and he ended up jumping off the toilet seat, bending another one of his feathers:( what...

Hello! I've recently gotten a pet cockatiel named Mika on Saturday (2/3/4), so I've had her for about 5 days. My mom says I should put toys in her cage while I'm at school so she's not so bored, though I'm not for sure on how to introduce her to them. I have a few different ones to show her, but...

Hi! :hi: I'm new to the forum and I figured I'd ask for some advice from more experienced parrot owners. I'm a proud budgie mom with the funniest little boy but as much as I love him, he's not as "advanced" as I'd like. I really want a bird who will be more playful and affectionate and I've...

So my bird has just gotten over his first molt. Stressful, hormonal and cranky. But in the end we made it thru ok. He looks great and it gave him a chance ( us a chance ) to experience what flight feathers bring to the table. Since December he has lost three of his new feathers, making him very...
