I just got my pet cockatiel three days ago, he is about four years old, and has been re-homed around twice now. The little guy escaped his cage not to long ago so I had to use a blanket to put him back in his cage, now he screams at me. Poor guy is terrified, but im not giving up on him, and I want him to know he’s in a safe home now
I just got my cockatiels and I'm trying my best to show them that I love them they're still in the "new home phase" So I cant take them out yet but when they are comfortable with me and their new home I hope that I can gain they're trust Edit:typo
I've had my new cockatiel for about 4 months and she is still afraid of hands. I can get my face really close and she doesn't back away anymore, but from the 1st day whenever I'm home I let her free to come out and fly around. Give them that basic decency. They know the cage is their home and a safe space and will take themselves home when their done.
i have gotten 2 cockatiels yesterday and their wings one of their wings each are clipped, they’re 2 years old and fight a lot and haven’t had a good household before
Has anyone noticed the bald spot on the top of latino cockatiels head. If you are worried about it please don't be because it was somehow overlooked when breeding and has become part of every latino's character. I am not a breeder but I have read this in a book. 😊
I bought 2 ft cage and some toys And I will buy cockatiel baby. I have so much experience about budgies. I have budgies from 3 years but I don't know many things about cockatiel .please make video how to choose healthy baby
Hi, i have a white face gray cockatiel. He is 3months old, bought him when he is 52days. He doesn't like to be inside the cage, so he is with us in the living room. He is not allowing us to near him. Please help me with some tips to train him.
I need some help plz I got a cockatiel a few days ago and she was abused in the pet shop she used to live in she has not once yet put her Lil head feathers down she got out of her cage and flew around in the room so I had to catch her with a blanket but idk really how to gain her trust she's only eaten out of my hand once and it was a long cookie but she doesn't wanna eat seeds from me plz help I don't have the slightest idea how to build a bond or what to do with her I'm to scared to take her out of her cage bc she js flies around
Yes, they’ll have the same appearance until around 6months or until their first major molt, you can tell the gender as female adult tiels will have black bars across their tail feathers (the set underneath in the middle) and males will be more vocal, you can have vocal females, it’s just rarer
even in lutinos the bars will be visible, just less obvious, generally a slightly different shade or even different texture almost, my albino female has darker white stripes
uhm i got a problem so i dont know many things abt cockatails so we bought 2 and the guy said if u cut there wings and try to get used to them let them roum around the house so we cut there wings and its been a week now and it kinda trusts me i feed it in hand and dousnt step up or leaves the cage in the past week it got out once and i think by accident they can fly a lil if u have steps for me to make them step up please tell me thank you❤❤
My bird is scared of everything, he doesn't play with toys nor he ever bathes, he is afraid of my hand when it gets wet.. i thought it would be past trauma from any previous owner who sprayed him for bad behavior or something, but he was only a few months old when I got him, he loves me and my mother the most but doesn't seem to interact with anything than us, is it maybe his personality? He wants to have more social fun than having fun by playing? He also likes to destroy books and paper. He trusts me more than my mother, which he oftenly sings to her whistles I've learned him or gives her kisses, I've taught him many words and sounds, but he won't interact with me like he does with my mother, and has a very very weird obsession with my feet.. whenever I hide them away he goes nuts and wants to get out of the cage, but if I put them next to him he wants to play.. I cannot understand if that is a way if interacting with me, or he thinks that my feet or socks are his living friends? He listens to my commands even though I've never give him a treat for doing so, although I'd love to but so far I'm not sure what he likes to eat besides vegetables, sometimes he won't eat his favorite seeds when I offer them to him. In return I lower my head to pet him with my nose. He does Not Accept Fingers!! My house is very very small, no room for him to fly, only in circles around the living room :( We don't have enough money nor we have proper stores with proper toys or parrot food, the nearest one is miles away! He is also a very messy bird when eating. I hate to admit that I'm not capable of keeping a bird, but I'm doing the best I can because it's too late, he trusts us and loves us to bits, he won't stop screaming until I return from the other room. I tried to fixing his mental problems like stress and feather plucking, it worked for a bit but the extreme temperature our house has because my mother gets cold easily, makes my cockatiel very aggressive, rather in colder temperatures he's more chill and playful
My cockatiel was scared when I first got her. Yours sounds like he/she is getting to like you very much. When he answers any of your commands try treating him with a bit of millet or a little fruit. My house is very small too but your bird likes you just the way you are. Cockatiels are very accommodating birds and can adjust to many things. My bird also calls and calls to me when I leave the room. It sounds crazy but I answer her by telling her what I am doing. I'm sure the neighbours think I'm a "crazy bird lady". Your bird seems to be getting to know and love you so don't give up just love him back and your relationship will grow and grow.
You don't cut off their wings!!!!! That's horrific. Only feathers. I would never cut off their feathers, they need them for flying! I do keep the cage door open all day so she can come and go as she pleases. I love the trust my bird shows me. It makes us feel close and her feel safe. My cockatiel and I have a good relationship and I love it!!
My bird got out of the cage and woun’t return to it anymore.Ive been trying for 2 days to slowly feed him and give him treats hoping he comes back to the cage or trust me but it wount happen.Any tips?
To this I would add, don't feed him. When he realises he is hungry he will return to his cage for food. I keep my bird's cage door open all day and she comes and goes as she pleases. This may help you because it will help him return to his cage of his own accord.
Hi hello...i have bought cocktail 1month ago..whenever i place dem on lap it sits only on shoulder and starts biting my chain...and wen i restrict it by closing my chain it becomes aggresive and starts sractching and biting my finger which is restricting...wat can i do for it to be polite..
Hey don't worry. Cockatiels loves sitting on our shoulders and birds in general, loves shiny objects and that's why it's biting. Even my tiel does this every time. They can't break your chain!
@@karthika950 hi..am having 2 cocktail birds as pets...when it's preening or flying...many feather dust is flying around..does it cause any breathing problems..how to avoid this..am.keeping dem in my room means almost with us...only..and always its shouting to remove dem from cage...v can't see dem whole 12hrs with us na..wat to do
@@priyadayanandan9091 Dust is actually kinda usual for tiels. I'm a dust allergic person and my tiel's dander is not harmful for me but budgies dander does trigger my allergies. But again it differ on each person's immunity. You can bath your tiels if they loves to. But don't force them to bathe. Regular shower helps to reduce dander.
MY birds are pretty much used to me. Do fly on my head or shoulder but still doesn't trust my fingers:( I can also kinda play with them but are still a bit.. careful. They do sit on hand if i hold a candy stick tho lol.
This was 2 months ago but I recommend feeding them mostly with your fingers and give treats whenever they dont run away from the finger or dont buy the fingel
Every video I watch on how to become closer with your cockatiel, they all start with letting it get on your finger, but what if I every time try i try to bring my finger close they step back, away from finger. Do you have any advice on what I can do to try and gain there trust. I would really love it, if you have some advice for me or anyone that sees this comment. Thank you
I am having the same issues with mine. I been trying to introduce touch and interaction bybusing a stepping stick they can climb on when they finally get comfortable. Its just going to take time bro. I have made barely any progress within a week but it’s gradually letting me get closet and closer. I think eventually it will get the idea
I know this was a month ago but always always always make sure you’re slow and calm around them!! if they’re not allowing you to get your hand close to them then start by putting your fingers between the bars and then looking at your phone while doing that!! they will slowly become more comfortable with having your hands near them, until eventually even touching doesn’t bother them!
if they’re skittish avoid eye contact while first putting your hand near them, a lot of smaller birds see eye contact as predatory when they’re nervous, but when I first got my parakeets and my cockatiel they wouldn’t let my hand anywhere near them, i fixed this by resting my hand near their treats for about an hour a day. If they wanted their treats they had to go NEAR *not on* my hand, and then they get closer and closer and after multiple times they realize they have nothing to fear. It goes slowly, don’t let yourself lose patience. and don’t listen to people when they say “you could break a bond forever” there’s always a chance to lose trust with a bird, but birds are never so untrusting of a person that they’ll never ever trust them again. you can gain the trust of any bird no matter how traumatized with enough effort patience care and love. But it’s always best to avoid losing that trust in the first place.

Update?
"Avoid cutting of their wings" "Many cockatiel owners have complained that they have lost the trust of their cockatiel..."
YEAH I WONDER WHY EH

i have gotten 2 cockatiels yesterday and their wings one of their wings each are clipped, they’re 2 years old and fight a lot and haven’t had a good household before
Thank you for the tips but my cockatiel is used to the wing thing
I just put millet in my new cockatiels dish form to enjoy when he want
Has anyone noticed the bald spot on the top of latino cockatiels head. If you are worried about it please don't be because it was somehow overlooked when breeding and has become part of every latino's character. I am not a breeder but I have read this in a book. 😊
could be the result of using lutino pairs, recessive genes which manifest in the bald spot, should try not to breed 2 lutinos
Gorgeous birds
Thank you :) :)
I bought 2 ft cage and some toys
And I will buy cockatiel baby. I have so much experience about budgies. I have budgies from 3 years but I don't know many things about cockatiel .please make video how to choose healthy baby

Just be patient. It may took longer for some tiels to be tamed. You can gently rub its head. Cockatiels love being petted on its head!

do both male and female lutinos have yellow dots under their wings at 14 week old?

the feather is a part of the wing karen, don't assume they meant cut the whole wing off.

I know this is a little late but what I would do iso would turn the lights off in the room and put a light in the cage
To this I would add, don't feed him. When he realises he is hungry he will return to his cage for food. I keep my bird's cage door open all day and she comes and goes as she pleases. This may help you because it will help him return to his cage of his own accord.
