    Hello! I have a 4 yr old single female named Opal, who I'm fairly sure is broody? Lately, she's been being very... "flirty" with her toys, and I've noticed her frequently hanging out in the corner of the bottom of her cage for the past couple of days. She would come back up and want out though...

    I got my cockatiel, Birdadette (Bird for short), about four years ago. She laid one egg about a year or so after I got her and hasn't laid one since. The first egg was a major surprise to both of us, and she wanted nothing to do with it, so after 3 days I removed it. So no eggs or any sign of...

    Still new to cocktiels. My male does not seem interested in the nest with 5 eggs at all. Female will let him in but he does not share the responsibilities in sitting. I am worried that she will have to do everything if and when they hatch. Still have some days to go, I believe. 1st egg was laid...

    My family and I adopted a female cockatiel of an unknown age (we were told she was old) about two years ago to join our family of two cockatiels (male and female, unbonded). She has always been a bit withdrawn (story was that she was separated from her mate) so we just let her be and give her...

    Hi all, I have a pair of cockatiels, the girl is about 9 years old and boy age is unknown. They started laying eggs last year, all the way through winter (we live in San Diego, CA, so winter isn't really harsh, plus they are indoor). They had just one hatched, the rest are not fertilized. We...

    Yep I need help again :( Oldest baby is almost 6 weeks old, youngest is almost 5 weeks old. Their cage situation is this: there are 2 cages attached to each other so they can come and go and the parents can feed them. In my current and temporary living situation I cannot turn them loose in this...
  16. 📢 Cockatiel Talk 🗣️
    Our cockatiel is currently pacing about on perches and on the floor, looking at the floor, doing her little "Hello!" whistle. She's mainly looking at the corners, I think. Could this possibly be nesting behaviour? Or just an interesting part of the newspaper she's trying to communicate with? :)...

    Hi, I am currently attempting to breed my 2 cockatiels, Peano and Sunny. They were doing everything well until about a week before hatching when they stopped sitting on the eggs, and then started mating again. The second time they did exactly the same thing. The cockatiels cage joins onto the...
  18. Cockatiel Breeding
    My cockatiels started to do some shoddy nesting after the second egg arrived, and got better by the third, but they still abandon them at night and it gets cold. I've tried coaxing them by leaving a little light in the box, food, etc. Even placing my cockatiel in. The male wasn't helping much...
  19. Cockatiel Breeding
    Hi everyone! Yesterday I took two of my cockatiels out of the big flight cage and put them into a separate cage that already houses 2 of their flockmates. I put them there to begin to bond so that I could eventually set them up for nesting. I was absolutely *shocked* to walk into my bird...

    My cockatiel, Sweep, vomited last Tuesday (a week today). He had eaten some bran flakes (which he has eaten on many occasions before without being sick and I don't give him an excess amount, please trust me on that) Since Tuesday he has become very quiet and withdrawn. He has not chirped...
