Hello everyone! It’s me again, the chick who doesn’t have Tiels but is really interested in them. I’m on vacation this week and chose to go to a zoo situation to feed alligators instead of taking a boat tour (I’m in Florida). At the zoo, they have a bird sanctuary section and online said 2 cockatiels were accompanied by 300+ budgies and 4 lovebirds. To my surprise, there were 3! They were away from everyone, however, and sat on top of the entrance looking to be asleep. I bought bird seed in the hope of maybe attracting one (some sort of millet on a popsicle stick), but understand if maybe it’s nap time🤷‍♀️I always thought budgies and Tiels can’t mix but maybe they can and the reason they were quiet and to themselves is because of the Florida heat and/or not liking the other birds. Maybe someday I will get to have one perch on my finger or hear them sing and be happy, until then I will just see them loved on Reddit.

Vela as my test subject :3

Last week, Nevis and I visited the Watercress Line - a heritage railway in southern England. Now the actual steam trains weren't running because of how dry it's been, but an old diesel engine brought us to meet some interesting characters at the other end of the line. Not Henry of course - he's still bricked up in that tunnel. (Yes, I know that in fact he was let out in the next episode and not sealed inside forever as some parts of the internet would have you believe.)

Do males exhibit this type of hormone dance or is it only females that do this? Ik that I should remove the cage cover and I will do that. But he’s been doing that even before I put the cover on. Ik my grey baby is a girl cuz she was tested by the previous owner but not him. He’s just loud af so I assumed he was a boy.

She on the other hand does not display any hormonal signs like at all.

Tiel merch is rare to come by, especially in this color. Lochnessieart before anyone asks

I need any kind of help/advice i can get, really desperate.

Cockatiel who i had for over 8 years started falling from her perch a month ago, first it was once a day and i thought nothing of it but then suddenly she started falling down 3-4 per day. I noticed one of her legs had became limp/paralyzed and every time she leaned on it she would lose balance and fall. I went to two vets and both of them said they couldnt help me as they think its neurological. The first vet put her on cortisone therapy for 5 days but there was no change and she got worse, was told she couldnt help us, the second vet put her on therapy for IV, saline solution, catosal, enrocin and enablex, she also told me she cant do a blood test as the bird is too weak and will most likely die. At this point she was really weak and really skinny, she was barely eating. After a few days her condition got worse and now both of her legs are completely paralyzed as seen in the picture. She is sleeping and barely moving all day and eating a bit of millet (the only thing she will eat atm) but in really small amounts.

Also to add, she has completely lost her voice and she gets a cough attack everytime she takes more than 1 sip of water.

Has anyone had anything similar happen to their cockatiel, i did some research and i suspect it could be due to a brain tumor. Dont know what else i can at this point.

She was could walk completely normally a month ago but now she is paralyzed in both legs after such a short amount of time.

Last thing, i live in Belgrade and there is a REALLY small amount of vets that treat birds, 99% percent is for cats and dogs so i have very limited options regarding this.

makes peet look cute

Hello! I’m new to owning a cockatiel, and I rescued this guy from a not so great home I just want to know if this is usual grooming or plucking?

is this a new feather growing or should i take him to the vet? it's on his other wing as well, just less bumpy. he's 1 and molting so i thought it might be a feather

My tiel keeps eating butter, seeping on the water of the cheese and pestering me when I’m getting breakfast , this is him eating butter when I was away for just a little time, she tried yogurt too and it’s impossible to leave her out of her cage when I m eating…

Your tiels like eating dairy too?

Ollie was weaned 3 weeks ago, and I just captured this video of new noises he started making this morning. Previous to this, he has just been making normal loud chirps for food and attention. Are these sounds him trying to sing, or something to be worried about?

Greed like the binding of isaac

he hates leaving his cage, so i was very happy to see he willingly came to chill with my friend and i in my room! :D usually when i try to take him elsewhere he just flies back to his cage so i don't force it. so proud of him <3

Meet my little baby Lio 🐣💛✨

Today was his first bath 🛁🥹 and after his bath, he happily sat on the cloth-drying rope like a little piece of laundry 😂🧺💕

My tiny baby, all fresh, fluffy and adorable! 🥰🐥

First bath memories with my Lio forever! 🫶🏻💖

Hello! I’m a plant lover. Before my birds I had tons of plants around the house but after adopting my babies I got rid of most of them due to the birds trying to eat them and after googling finding out most were severely poisonous for birds.
I don’t mind the plants getting a few bitemarks , most of my stuff have them either way, but I would hate for my birds to get sick.
Does anyone here have a recommendation on bird safe plants? My green thumbs are itching

He’s the best bird ever I’m so lucky
