My two lovebirds (both female, both a year and a half old, bonded) have been biting their nails. I think they need to be trimmed, but I don't know how to do that when they won't let me hold them. They try to bite me whenever my hand draws near, and they've been especially grumpy lately. A lot...

Hi and hello! I’m new here and happy to join, I have plenty of questions but the most important is… I hate two male cockatiel and they are in separate cages and one is tamed while the other one is untamed, my untamed one always look lonely to me and I want to introduce to my other cockatiel but...

Hello everyone! I was wondering if anyone had any tips on getting an untamed, flighted bird into their cage. We recently adopted a cockatiel (if you want the story, it's below) and he is not comfortable with stepping up. So far, he will only take sunflower seeds from our hands through his cage...

Hey everyone! I have a cockatiel who is untamed and I'd really like to let him out of the cage to work on getting him friendlier. However, I don't have a small room to put him in as my room is ridiculously tiny (and his cage is really big) so all I have is the living room. However there is no...

yet again another post... lol sorry. So I finally got my Tiels Rio and Molly last night. I expected them to be terrified of the new enviroment. Well today they are being super vocal, eating, drinking, playing etc. My only issue is they have never been handled.. The woman who rescued them from...

I've had my Green Cheek Conure, Pierre for awhile and have been attempting to tame him. His stubborn personality doesn't help at all. However, tonight he seems a bit off? He sneezed and got quiet. He then proceeded to make more sneezing noises frequently. Something I've never seen him do is bob...

(I am going to try to sound calm) (Also is he a budgie?) Hello bird family! I was at petsmart for dog food and stopped to look at the birds, a guy by me was looking at reptiles and went off on a rant that ended in him explaining he was wanting to get a snake to eat his “stupid bird” - I ended...

Hello, About 2 months ago, I was reading a local neighborhood post. A woman had found a small parrot and could not locate the owners. Other people had replied already, saying the were rescues or had experience and would take the bird. Without any information, I too replied and offer to raise...

Ok , so today i collected 2 beautiful Kakariki Parakeets.... popped one in the cage no problem.... however ! Mr Houdini managed to escape in under 0.3 seconds. I hadn't even opened the box fully and ping. ... he's now sat on my curtain pole. He's flown around the room several times but after 3...

(This is the friendliest budgie, she decided to take a bath in a wet leaf in my hand, literally the first time she ever did anything like this) Hello! I have two budgies that are housed separately because they don't really get along. I have been working to tame them for about a year now but only...

Hello, I recently inherited a 5-6 year old cockatiel (Caesar) that was never tamed or taken out of his cage. I have had him for a year now, and he is a very sweet and happy bird who gets plenty of treats and toys. He sings all the time. He is currently in the cage that I received him in, a ~4...

Hello Everyone, I have a recent addition to my little pet family a grey Female Cockatiel by the name of Opal. However even though its only been a month the poor thing is freaked out with most stimuli, absolutely will not let me get near her without hissing and freaking out/running to the other...
