Hi everyone My cockatiel Westley recently started chewing on his chest feathers, but only the ones as far up as he can reach, just under his beak/cheeks. He’s not plucking them, just nibbling on them. I’ve checked for pin feathers or anything that might be bothering him and he seems fine...

Good morning everyone! I’m a newbie here but my name is Stefanie. My question is can you bond to young cockatiels that are already bonded together? I got a pair of cockatiels (brother and sister I was told) that have not been DNA tested. The yellow one is Bowie and the grey one is Halen...

Does the question make sense? I've adopted an adult male cockatiel (Miu), he's very sweet and tame. We've had him for a few years now. Recently my mom brought home a 3 week old cockatiel chick, Miu is very interested and always observes me feeding the baby. Whenever he gets close to the baby...

I got a parent raised cockatiel he's so scared of me and I don't know how to tame him, he also can't sleep in the new house and he's so quite and only makes a sound when I show him videos of other cockatiels, so is he mad or happy? He's wings aren't clipped so I can't get him out of the cage and...
