RIP Gandalf and Big Bird, you are missed.
Welcome aboard, thanks for joining! Cockatiels very well represented here, feel free to ask and share!!
Welcome! Congratulations on your cockatiel!
All should be well with your burd.
But an absolutely great habit is to weigh your bird once a week. A kitchen digital scale set to grams works great and is cheap. This checking of weight is gr a t way to catch health issues before they get serious. As burds hide being sick, but most burds will loose weight when sick. Catching something early can make all the difference in saving your bird. Your bird might still be growing abd gaining. A 3-5% weight-loss seek a vet appointment. More than 5% get in right away. Take weight lost ÷ by normal weight x 100 = % lost. It really can be life saving knowing your burds normal weight.
