  1. Cockatiel Housing and Toys
    I brought home two new cockatiels and housed them in an outdoor shed-converted aviary where I've had two others for years. The problem is at night they cling to the aviary mesh to sleep, whereas the other two birds sleep on the perch. You'll see in the below picture how awkward and...

    My cockatiels usually sleep well through the night. Until two days ago. They go to sleep at around 7 pm so I cover their cage to help them sleep better. Both of them kept screaming through the entire night. They stopped at around 3 am and started screaming again around 6 am. The same happened...

    Unless I am physically in bed, my cockatiel will not settle down in his cage to sleep, he'll keep screaming until I let him out. He always wakes up when I do as well, and immediately wants to get out of the cage. I go to bed around 11 PM and wake up around 8:30 AM. It's very hard to force him to...

    :grey tiel: Hello, I just got a new cockatiel, Charlie, a week ago. He's about 4 months old and really tiny. He's slowly getting used to me but I'm still having some problems with him... I don't think he's sleeping at night. I'm sleeping in the same room as him (because of lack of space) and...

    Hi all, My cockatiel is still a baby and very new to our home. He was not a fan of the sleeping tent. I think it's too dark and scary in there for him so I took it out of the cage. He has taken to sleeping in his food bowl. Should I just let him continue sleeping there? Is a fake nest a bad...

    I've read that cockatiel sleeping positions can be quite idiosyncratic and would love to hear how other cockatiels sleep. I slightly adjusted two items in Micah's cage a couple of days ago and found that I disturbed her favourite sleeping spot. I've put it back now. There's a rope perch and...

    Hello I am really worried about my Cockatiel, this morning she couldn't stop shaking her head and she kept closing her eye and rubbing her eye on her back as if she had something in it but it looked like there was nothing in it. And she was really restless too when I took her out of her cage...

    I'm just wondering how many hours of sleep is normal for a tiel? It may be because of his PDD but Albus sleeps A LOT.
