cockatiel

I am looking for an albino (whiteface lutino) cockatiel male. I am willing to pay extra to have the bird shipped. I would like the bird to be friendly though a breeder bird would be just fine. Please contact me if you can help. MODERATOR EDIT: As personal contact info is not permitted on...

Hello there, I recently got a cockatiel and she's been making these lovely dinosaur-like calls. I was wondering if anyone call tell me what they mean? I've tried to ask on the cockatiel's subreddit but i got no helpful answers unfortunately. I think it might be her being comfortable or...

I left my cockatiel out of the cage to clean it. When I returned back after cleaning it , he got scared and jumped / tried to fly but came down at that vey spot. When I saw him he had his right wing open fully, I lifted him to check what happened, but I saw nothing physical , I placed him in the...

Hello! Looking for additional members for my flock and figured I'd check here first. 1) Male conure 1-7 y/o. I currently have a male maroon bellied conure who is desperately trying to play with the cockatiel and she wants none of it. Hoping to get him a companion whether they end up being cage...

Hello there, I've bought a cockatiel about 2 months ago and her introduction is going great with my budgies in the living room. Her cage ha been situated in the bedroom during the quarantine and Coco (my male budgie) is absolutely in love with Zoe (the cockatiel). Unfortunately this means he...

Dear bird lovers, My 2 month year old cockatiel :yellow1: has been showing facial feather loss as if he had been shaving (please see the attached picture) in the last couple of days. Also the feathers on his cheeks are not as abundant and thick anymore. We believe this has to do with his...

Hi, So my cockatiel's quarantine has just finished and she's still getting introduced to my budgies and getting used to everything. I'm planning on eventually getting a harness for her and training her, but I've seen some video's on youtube and I've seen different ways of people handling the...

So, I've recently got myself a single female cockatiel and she has the softest most adorable personality. I've waited until her quarantine period has ended before trying to introduce her to my 2 budgies in the living room. Witje, my female budgie isn't particularly fond of her but she's okay...

I have 3 birds and 2 of them being a cockatiel and princess parrot who live in the same very large cage. I have had them for over 10 years with no problems they were happy and healthy and today I went to feed and check on them and my cockatiel has passed away with blood coming from her nose and...

I went to a pet store I trust and have gotten wing clippings for my smaller birds who have a higher risk of escapingg from some parts of the house. Today when I went in to get my budgies wing trimmed there was a new employee. I instructed him to only trim a few flight feathers and he said he was...

Hi guys! My name is Bhairvi and I live in Toronto, Canada. I have two birds : GCC - Ollie (my pretty princess) Cockatiel - Charlie (my handsome boy) Excited to be here! Thanks :greenyellow:

Hi everyone, I got a cockatiel yesterday. His name is Charlie. The poor boy's toe nails were twisted when I got him, couldn't imagine leaving him with his previous owner. He is around 3 months old. I have booked an appointment with the vet for next week, as they told me if he is walking around...

every night i can hear him move around in his cage, and whenever i walk by him both of his eyes are wide open. at first i thought it was because he’s afraid of predators attacking him, so after some research i figured it’d help if i left a small hole for him to look out from so he’d feel safe...

So i wanted to ask if cockatiels and budgies can live together? I'd love a budgie at some point! it would be great if they can be together! I have a few birds including 2 cockatiels who are both fine with other birds, i have a sun conure and GCC as well an IRN. they all get on fine and are...

hello, friends :) i’m very new to owning cockatiels and birds in general, but i have family in my household that helps me with them. we have 2: a smaller cockatiel and a bigger goffin cockatiel. the smaller buddy behaves well with us and we have no problem with him. the goffin, however, changed...

My dad was cutting Pikachu's nails but he moved and was bleeding. I pinched his toe to stop the bleeding and put some cornstarch on it, do i have to do anything else? He is screaming, might be from pain? please help, we'll leave the nails to the professionals next time... Edit: pikachu seems to...

We grinded up some pellets and gave them to pikachu (only pellets no seeds at all) we added 1 whole pellet in it. Pikachu gladly ate some pellet powder but when i hold a solid one up to his/her beak, she licks and grinds it a lil, it's like she plays with it, and then she spits it out. Do you...

So pikachu is shivering but When she is about to poop she gets all fluffy and shivery and bobs her tail once but after her pooping shes still shivering anyone know why?

Hello, I just got her today. She is extremely friendly. Her name is mimi. She is looking a bit bored though. I am posting a picture. Can you please tell whether her beak and cere look fine or not? If yes then I can place her with my other birds. Right now she is in separate cage...

This dot on his cere actually looks something like a cut, the picture quality isn't good, sorry- and that white line around his cere and beak looks like skin? like you know if you have a cut on your finger and there's like white curled up/dead skin there? It's also ON his beak. That. He/she is...

I have had my pet budgie Delta for 4-5 months and she and I have gotten really close over that time. I enjoy having her and nothing is wrong with her, I just have been thinking about getting a cockatiel a lot recently. I’ve been thinking about it for a month or two and if it wasn’t for the price...

Okay so ill start by saying, this cockatiel was in one of those crowded cages where around 50 birds were held in a small cage and no where to run or go, afraid of all humans and their behavior to come to cages and spook them to get a reaction, i did not intend to get this bird but when i saw...

Hello Fellow Cockatiel Owners! One of our birds got chilling on her perch and got spooked when she heard something fall in the other room. She flew and landed in our kitchen sink, into a cooking dish that was soaking, but had some olive oil residue in it. Does anyone have any advice as to other...

I own a male rosella and a female cockatiel who i keep on the same cage as they were raised together since babys. And recently, i noticed that my cockatiel cinnamon has been displaying what seems to be mating behavior... She gets really close to rosi and lowers her body while lifting the tail...

Hey I'm so sorry if my formatting is a little odd, I'm new to the site and haven't been able to navigate everything yet. So I've recently decided that I wanted to train my two cockatiels (Both are males from the same clutch and I've had them since they were over a month old. They're over a year...

Hi. Last year I was given a cockatiel by my grandparents, the bird was hand reared from birth and use to be a very friendly bird. The last owners of the bird, however, did not know how to properly take care of a friendly bird and would often grab it harshly to pick it up, which must have made...

Hello everyone, I'm new here and would love some advice as I can't seem to figure out what to do with my 2 year old cockatiel. I used to live in Missouri where it was very humid and my bird thrived there. I moved to Colorado last year in the summer and from the lack of humidity and going through...

I have a cockatiel chick that’s a bit over 3 weeks and very stunted (only just hitting 40 grams now). He was actually taken out of the nest due to stunting along with his little sibling, but the sibling died a few days later due to unknown reasons (had hard remnants at the bottom of the crop...

Hi everyone! I am interested in getting a young cockatiel but have been having a hard time finding reputable breeders near me. Any advice? Also, I have found lots of companies that ship the birds to you, but my instincts tell me that these breeders are likely not reputable/that it is...

hello. I hope I`m posting this in the right place. do you think my bird is plucking, or maybe injured? His wing has a bald spot. I`ll attach an image :yellow1::confused:

Hello everyone! Cinnamon, my cockatiel, has been molting recently, i already noticed some pin feathers and feathers growing out. But recently, i noticed that everytime i go cuddle her and hug my hand around her back, she complains in disconfort (Something she never does since i know she loves to...

Hey:) So about a week ago i bought a new grey cockatiel named mikey, he settled in really well and by the second day i was scratching his head and all that.I have a mother and sister living with me and he also gets on really well with them! But there is one problem, he constantly purposly...

Hello. As you can tell by my username, I have a cockatiel named Pikachu. When we got him we had to go with a budgie cage because there weren't any bigger or better cages in the place we got him from. So I'm looking to buy a new, bigger and better cage online. I'm sure he's not enjoying his...

Hello, I am relatively new to cockatiel chick raising and currently have three chicks who are at least 1 week old. I previously had 5, but 2 had unfortunately passed away in the nest. I didn't know at the time that it was important to clean out the nest, as I was under the impression that you...

Hello everyone! I have two cockatiels, Cheeky (almost 5 y.o.) :yellow1: and Mango (almost a year old) :grey: Both are males. Cheeky was my first pet; I got him when he was 3 m.o., and back then I used to spend the entire day with him on my shoulder, so he got extremely attached to me. He learnt...

Hey all! I am a proud Cockatiel dad of two baby Cockatiels. My girl Lola is 8 months old pearl and a total sweetheart when she wants to be. My boy Pappan is a 3 month old and a total cuddlebug. He wants all the scritches at all times lol. So as you can imagine, both of my tiels are young...

Hello! I recently got a new tiel and now that it's growing up it's confusing me loads. I noticed that he "relieves himself" on objects like a male cockatiel would do and he'sstarting to sing too and is really really attention seeking and noisy, but for some reason he shows some female...
