I try to spend time to play with her, sometimes I have her on my lap while I continue working. But during the day, her and my other...

    My Cockatiel is just 6 months old. I know this is usually around the time for a molt, and it is cold. But i was wanting to know is there a way to tell the difference between molting and feather plucking from stress? As Far as i know i haven't done much to stress her out. Got her a lot of...

    Luna is coming out of a molt (I think). She has dry skin and scratches a lot. Her feet are also dry, and she has a bald patch on the top of her head. I want to ease her itchiness and help soften her feather shafts(?) and soothe her dry skin (top of her head and under her wings) and I've read...

    I'm minding a young clipped cockatiel (Luna) for a few weeks, and I've noticed she has rather dry feet. I've read pure aloe vera juice or aloe vera plant sap mixed with her bath water could help? But as yet she hasn't wanted a bath (she's had a mist shower but she wasn't really into that...

    So I've had two cockatiels for about a year now - they're roughly around a year old at this point (male and female) and the female in particular has had a difficult molt it seems. She has had an abundance of blood feathers (last time we had a vet visit (July 2018) 12 were plucked) and since then...

    Hey all, So, Puck is now definitely in his first molt. There's feathers everywhere :lol: I've kept the tailfeathers he's lost so far (2 of the upper ones and one of his bottom feathers) and was wondering.... I heard that in male tiels, the barring on the tailfeathers wil disappear after the...

    I'm needing advice on this especially if anyone's experienced this. It's making me a nervous wreck. I will clarify that I'm going to have my cockatiel taken to the vet tomorrow. For the past week or so my cockatiel has been molting and her stool has been loose and watery. The coloring of her...

    Last month, my 12 year old Tiel molted two months in a row. I thought it was really weird he molted two times so close together, but I figured maybe his body clock got messed up somehow and it was re adjusting itself. A few weeks later I took him in the shower and he got SOAKED like there was no...

    Hi - I thought at first that my bird was going through a heavy molt but now I am starting to think that something else might be going on. He has been losing feathers for about 6 weeks now, some proper long flight feathers too, but in addition now he seems to be itching a lot, and a little...

    Luma has just had a massive molt! I've not had her for a full year yet so I was very worried when I uncovered her cage one morning and found a load of feathers on the floor. The rest of the day she was shedding feathers all over the house! She's lost almost all of her crest and her 2 longest...

    My cockatiel seems to be molting but I have noticed that she has skin showing on her face.. I'm not sure if this is normal. I have been worrying about her health since she is 16 years old. Her skin appears to be dark red above her nostrils and a bit on her left cheek. I know she likes...

    Hello When I got home this afternoon, I noticed that every time my cockatiel pooped it would be just clear and watery, nothing else in it at all, it was just like warm water coming out. I have never seen her poop like this before and I am worried. She is molting at the moment, and the feathers...

    As a couple of you might of saw, a week ago I posted in the forums about Chewy's crop as it was enlarged. I took him to the vet, and he gave him a check over and said everything was fine, it was just that Chewy had been eating too much food. Vets orders were to cut down his food, which I have...

    In the past couple days, Maya's started dropping feathers like crazy! I think she might be molting, but I've read that the first molt is supposed to happen between the ages of 6-12 months old, and Maya's only about 3 and 1/2 months old. I don't think she's picking her feathers, since no blood's...

    Hey everyone! Quick question: how many times per year does a cockatiel molt, at what age does a cockatiel go through his first molt, and after that, when is the second molt? Thanks!
