With a cockatiel in the house, you are likely to hear a repertoire of chirps and whistles .Cuddly, outgoing and comical are just three reasons why the cockatiel is the No. 1 pet bird in America. Cockatiels are also talented whistlers, and male cockatiels in particular are known for their whistle serenades, which can be directed at their favored person, their favorite object or their mirror reflection. When not whistling or keeping themselves busy foraging for food and fun around the cage, cockatiels often enjoy spending their downtime snuggling on their favored person’s shoulder. A healthy, well-socialized cockatiel can make a great family pet and is also ideal for apartment living.Pet Age: unknownLifespan: up to 20 yearsSize : smallCare & FeedingA cockatiel needs a cage spacious enough to accommodate multiple perches, toys, food bowls and have plenty of room to flap its wings without hitting them against anything. A cage with a large door front is ideal because it makes it easier to return a cockatiel to its cage, especially since cockatiels can be flighty birds. Cockatiels are natural ground foragers and will forage on the bottom of the cage if given the opportunity; cover the cage floor with newspaper and sprinkle crumbled treats or millet sprinkle seed for your cockatiel to find. Cockatiels are social birds and thrive when given opportunities to interact with you, whether it is gently petting their cheek feathers, being talked to or simply being in the same room as you. | Pet Age: 5 monthsPet Price: 20 eachPet Information: Beautiful and musical, mother nature has created finches for our pleasure.Pet Tag Number: CF1 | | Water Conditions: 72-82° F, KH 4-8, pH 6.0-7.5 | Water Conditions: 75-86° F, KH 5-18, pH 6.5-8.0 Origin: Borneo, Malaysia, Sumatra | Pet Information: The Indian ring-necked parakeet is not a shy bird, and does best with an owner who appreciates an outgoing companion that is not afraid to demand what it wants!
