Judging by the baby's feather, I think the baby is about 4-5 weeks old. Cockatiels in general weans at 8-12 weeks. There will be a few weeks hand feeding period before the bird is fully weaned. If the baby crying, feed more formula. I highly recommend buying a digital accurate gram scale. You need weigh the baby every day.

Read the feeding and weaning will help you:
