Has anyone tried Avi Calm with their cockatiel? I’ve used it with my Moluccan and Umbrella. My cockatiel of 6 yrs is a bit randomly aggressive as of late. There hasn’t been any change in diet, routine or out of cage time. I thought about trying the Avi Calm with him. Thoughts?

I’ve used Bachs rescue remedy on plucking birds, but I truly can’t say whether it helped.

I would consider how much sleep or dark time your cockatiel is getting; and give him up to 14 hrs dark time a day to try to get him out if breeding mode.
You might also consider whether he’s overfed and cut back on the richness of his diet. That can put parrots into breeding mode and in his case higher testosterone levels, too.
If he has any toys that he humps, maybe remove them from the cage.
