Hello every one; These are Pufi (yellow) and Tutu (white/gray) my new friends. I got them from a local breeder less than a week ago and he told they are about 3-4 month old. I didn't do research in advance and tried to pick two with most different looks. Now I saw that the colors are due to...

So…I recently had a sick budgie and I have had to give both my cockatiel and budgie medication by syringe, This cockatiel is still new to the household and I had not really bonded with him yet, so I’m worried how he is gonna react to me after i stop giving him his medication. He is definitely...

Hello birdies. I got two baby cockatiels around 4 weeks old. I don't know the gender still. I read that two birds bonds with each other more and will not need your company and will not bond with you and will not get great tamed. Is it true? What if we hand-feed both and raise both from chicks...

So, I am a new bird owner and just got an eight week old cockatiel yesterday. We named him Marnie. He was parent raised, so he’s not used to human. If we sit next to the cage, he’s fine. But I tried to give him some spray millet and he took a couple nibbles but then starts to freak out. So, I...

Hi, I bought an untamed 1 or 2 year old male cockatiel in March 2019. At first he used to scream a lot whenever he used to see birds outside our large window in the living room, but this got better gradually. After about a month when he got settled in his cage, and screams were very less, I...

Hello! I have a male cockatiel who is about a year old now. I have heard about, read about, and seen lots of cockatiels who are very loving - they ALWAYS want to come out, they NEVER bite, and their owner can handle them however they want. My bird (his name is Chippy) is hand-tamed and when he...

Hi fellow Tiel lovers, Just need some advise on how to overcome my Tiel, Tango, from being scared of me. He is not hand tamed and at least now he does not bite me. He steps up, reluctantly and even then I have to chase him now and then. He stays on my finger as long as he does not see the...

Hello, I am new to the site ( I will post an introduction thread soon). I have recently come to be the mother of two Lovely Cockatiels. :D I have had them for a whole week now. I have owned Parakeets in the past and I had an older Cockatiel when I was younger. I find myself in need of some...
