Two problems with #10: 1) Regurgitation can be a sign that they want to mate with you, and should be discouraged just in case 2) The example video shows a tiel chewing on a rope toy, which is *awful*. For one they can chew rope strands, swallow them, and they collect in their crop until they need surgery or die. Or two, they can get their neck or feet tangled up in the rope and strangle themselves and die (or chew off their own foot out of sheer panic). If you’ve already bought one you can let them use it supervised out of the cage, but otherwise don’t buy them
What a beautiful video. I am a cockatiel owner and I can attest to the exactness of this video. If you are patient and loving to your cockatiel, they will reward you with their sweet love!!! ❤
I love cockatiels so much,with their little feet those big beautiful eyes and of course their mohawk, I can’t even describe how adorable they are🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
I know that feel, i've lost my dear boy three days ago 😢 he let his last breath literally on my hands, and i'm missed him so much. He was 23 years old and got very sick, while i was on a business trip. At least he was keeped his state long enough to wait for my return and for passing not in solitude.
I was at a pet store once and there was a cockatiel that would go up to the glass and follow me around in the glass cage i just wish i could’ve adopted it but i had no money
@@kwiiin_then from where? Where else would one get them? Just a curious question I never wanted to adopt a bird.. I feel it's too unnatural for a bird to live at house. But this morning one cockatiel came to my house.. he was very scared. Natural reaction was to give him water and to comfort him. Now he is sitting here for half a day and we all feel so much of love towards it. Tried to search for owner.. but so far no luck
@@shirukk1234 There are animal shelters. We only own birds because a neighbour of my spouse wanted to get rid of them half a year after owning them. Pets are unnatural, so are lots of things. Check your animal shelter, if you can't keep the birb (with another), or animal rescues, since your tiel is probably wild. :)
My cockatiel still does about half the things on this list, but I worry that I may have lost his trust from "rejecting" those love nips by pulling my hand away every time. I literally thought it was a sign that I was too close to his personal space... now I'm second guessing that after this video. He also only seems to sing when I'm not in the room. 🤔
Read my comment above. You have very likely a female cockatiel. Female cockatiels do not dance, they don't show off to impress you, they don't sing and some other things mentioned in the video.
You should never pull your hands away from a bird. It tells them that it's ok to bite harder until they become like my Cody who I took from people who were abusing him. Now, I've been struggling for years to help him become friendly. He sings with me and for me. But I don't think he'll ever let anyone touch him ever again. I've tried everything. I had a bird trainer tell me he's untrainable but I won't give up and he's pretty old.
@@rosemarycoe1916 I mean, I do not entirely agree with that. There are times to pull your hand away from a bird, like if you're too close for comfort, they're tired or hormonal, etc. Sadly, I wonder if Cody's previous owners tried to tame him too fast. Thankfully my bird never got aggressive from rejected love nips, just seemingly indifferent. Our bond has gotten stronger thanks to what I improved on after watching this video.
My cockateils only sleep on me and bite me gently but I noticed they do everything here to eachother (except the mating related ones cause they are bith females)
I have a cockatoo and he does all of this except give me his toys he will even let me flip him upside down and the Palm of my hand and tickled his belly Mind you though he was a hand fed baby
I just got mine and it’s very scared and distant I’m not sure on how to make it trust me as its my first time with a cocktail when I try to touch it it tries to bite me, if you have any advice please help me😢😢
Hii! I recently got 2 birds 1.5 months ago, they are really interactive,hand feeding them helps and giving it space for the first few days so that it gets used to the cage and making it step on your hand slowly to show it your harmless,it takes time the first few days/weeks can be very distant but eventually they get used
Hello I have a question I have a cocktail bird named Louise she shows all the signs and she is very but she does not allow me to touch and play with her why?
Birds naturally, do not want to be handled like dogs and cats. It’s just not in their nature. it doesn’t mean your little one hates you, Louise most likely enjoys being near you, but has set a boundary. Don’t be discouraged, she may not ever want to be handled, but try to take things slow and be gentle and she may come around. If not, try to respect her boundaries and let her show affection the way she’s comfortable with (by being near you) ❤️
They just love her scritches, try moving your finger little above his head and slowly start touching and scritching... I am pretty sure you will be able to do that.. check my videos
Mine cockatiel is the same, as the other comment said some birds just don't like to be touched. It's nothing bad against you. Your little one still loves you.
I live with two cockatiels and they both hate me. They don't do anything on this list 😢 In my defence, they are both rescues and i dont know their past.
Bonjour ! J’ai mon cockatiel (callospsitte en France) depuis deux mois et nous nous adoptons tous les deux, je crois qu’il me fait confiance et notre relation est de plus en plus forte de jour en jour, en tout cas je l’adore 😍 merci pour cette vidéo ! Laurence de France !

@@kwiiin_ I did, and he picked off his toenail when his "Buddy" sang. 😢. So we found a wonderful, caring home for Buddy and I'm still working with Willow (my cockatiel). Willow is a rescue cockatiel. He flew into my garage on the verge of death, and from his reaction to the birds outside, he was traumatized by them AND his previous owners. We've had him for a year now and he gets the best care possible, but doesn't want to come out of his cage (I leave it open up at the top). I'm NOT going to try to force anything upon him.

Fred the Lutino Cockatiel loved me so much and I miss him now ❤️🕊️😢
Sorry for your loss ❣
R.I.P
I miss my female cockatiel too. She died 26 years ago.

They are more like a Family member ... Not a pet... My Cockatiel BABY Boy. PASSED Away 7 - 9-2023 he was 3. I miss him dearly . RESPECT.
My bird let's me hold him til he falls asleep lol.🥰💖
Same here
Thanks!
Thank You For Your Support 😊
How bout when my cockatiel shits all over the place. What does this mean?
Lmao I was thinking the same shit rn 😂😂😂😂
He/She is not toilet trained 😑
@@samual3006how tf are you supposed to train their shit?
I know right 😅😂
@@pandaboogusyou could train it tho. Like how you train other animals like dogs or cats.
My love bird does em all 🥲 especially the wing display. Always such an honor to see
My girl Sunny loves snuggles and often puts her head on my cheek or in my hand to let me know she'd like some pets and snuggles and kisses
I was at a pet store once and there was a cockatiel that would go up to the glass and follow me around in the glass cage i just wish i could’ve adopted it but i had no money
You should get at least two and never from a pet shop, anyway.
@@kwiiin_then from where? Where else would one get them? Just a curious question

He might be singing because he misses you, if he doesn’t have a bird companion. And if you’re in the room with him there’s no perceived need to sing

My cockatiel squawks when I leave the room. He’s quiet when I’m with him but if I want to nap it’s impossible. What to do, he’s so attached.
I just put a birdingtons video on the TV if I want a break.
My cockatiel loves me so much❤
Get it a fellow cockatiel, birds are FLOCK animals.

So basically everything a cockatiel does means love and he's unable to not love you even if he wants
No

Many of these sign only apply to male cockatiels, not female cockatiels.
These are especially number 10, 7, 5, 4 and 3.
There are always exceptions..I have one!
@@CarolynCabrales-cs3et In that case your female bird is probably a Trans man. ;)
Mine wont even let me near her 😢

Cockatiels are a flock bird they need to be with at least 1 other Cockatiel.

This is bs, all my cockatiels hate me. I buy them toys amazing food and they still hate me!!
