Lost Cockatiel

[CharlieTheAnon]

I lost my cockatiel inside my house-- She was on her playtop cage and I went outside for less than a minute.
When I came back, she was gone.
What should I do? She's not calling back, and I'm really starting to worry.

Also, in case it matters, there's a storm outside, and we're in Florida.

Did she get outside or you certain she's inside the house?

 

[CharlieTheAnon]

She's inside-- All doors outside were closed. And if she is outside, she's not answering.
I'm nearly certain she's inside, but it's a fairly big house. We were packing up things for moving, and when I went to put something outside, she wasn't there anymore.
Her wings were not clipped very well.

Ok well she could be in anywhere, look underneath everything, behind everything, ontop of everything, you will find her if she's inside. You'd be surprised the places they can hide. My tiel flew underneath a bed before behind boxes and it took me over an hour to find her bc she wouldn't make a noise.

Welcome to the forum and Gee, I hope you've found your bird. Please let us know.

We just found her-- She was hiding in the pantry, hidden under a bag of food.
That's why we couldn't see her before.

Thanks for the support.

That was scarey! Glad you found her!

 

[Allee]

Little runaway, so happy you located her.

Good news . I know, it's scary. When they don't make any noise it's impossible until you just happen to see them.
