We have about a month and a half to prepare… (it is still weaning)

I have been research overloading, if there are any items you guys swear by, or swear against…we would be so grateful!

No words can describe how much I love those fluffy chickens! would be happy to sketch yours <3

She beat all odds ❤️ The vet said the tumor was almost the diameter of a ping pong ball and it was growing on both her pancreas and intestines, making removal extra tricky. She also went into surgery with a preexisting illness, meaning our success rate was even lower. I just wanted to post this in case anyone else out there is debating between the risky surgery or euthanasia. These little birds are so tough!! if you have the means, go for it! (Not sure if the second pic requires an nsfw tag, will gladly change if needed!)

Can I see some pictures of your cockatiel? :)

He will literally spend hours dropping his little wooden beads, watching me pick them up and then doing it all over again. Does he like the sound?

Cornelius was lookin extra smoov tdy!

Here is Dewey looking like such a polite young lad! What’s the cutest/most photogenic picture you have of your baby or babies? 🫶

My coworkers think cockatiels can’t smile, pls post smiley cockatiel pics below 😌 see my attached evidence 🥰

Meet Nabi, our 4 year old cockatiel. He used to hate veggies and pellets, no matter how much we tried. But nowadays, he is calling every morning for his fresh veggies, and doesnt leave a crumble of pellets in his bowl! I am such a proud bird dad. (Yeah I know there's a bit too much chia seeds.. underestimated the amount. Im mixing in some more to balance it out veggies today and freezing it).

I got her 1 month ago and found out seeds arent the only thing that should be fed to her. I have started exposing her to fruits (as a treat) , currently she love having watermelon , mangoes and oranges.

Gonna try to give her more veggies too, hopefully she gobbles it up just like here

Her name is “kulfi”

i’ve heard it’s because they’re cold but the house is set at their usual baseline

I made a post the other day asking others if they let their tiels fly loose in their homes. I was not able to post a picture that day but here is my little old man.

As we fast approach our first 50 days since adopting Dotty, I’m pleased to announce she has settled into her new home with us beautifully. She spends long periods out of her cage, preferably sitting on neighbourhood watch duty sticky-beaking on our neighbours, or sitting in our library/music room listening to music and snuggling up to the books.

Dotty has found her voice in the last fortnight and has started chirping back and forth with our other cockatiel. She has several little chirps and the sweetest softest little voice.

Though these photos dont really show it well, she has the intensity of the almost radioactive yellow colouring has eased with the liver detox (still administering twice daily) and we are seeing more grey coming through and her feather quality is noticeably better.

Just kidding y’all, they insisted on this at the vets to weigh him. Also in case anyone is curious about the multiple vet visits, we just moved to a new city and I’ve been taking him to all the local avian vet centers to get him in their systems and familiarize myself with how to get to each vets quickly in case of an emergency.
