Basic Information About Cockatiels: Cockatiels are medium-sized, trim birds that are one of the most popular companion birds. Known for their pumpkin orange cheeks patches, bright yellow crests and their long sleek gray bodies. Very sweet and loving birds that make great pets for anyone. They are relatively quiet, nondestructive, entertaining birds that are easy to care for. Many love to cuddle and have their head scratched and in return will preen your hair and clothes! They can be kept in places where loud pets are not allowed, like apartments and condos, and they are very healthy and intelligent pets who will recognize and want to be with their owner when they are home.
They adapt well to captivity and are easily bred housed as pairs in colonies. Although color mutations are highly valued by some aviculturists, the inbreeding required to produce unusual colors often results in some negative genetic disorders. The lutino or white cockatiel is most afflicted with some of these genetic defects including balding on the head, a nervous disposition and other abnormalities. The normal gray cockatiel has the best chance for a relatively long healthy life.
Cockatiels are limited talkers (males may be better), but some individuals are so good at whistling that their tunes are recognizable.

sir gud day. question lang regarding sa cockatiel. we have 3 cockatiels, (2 cocks,1 hen). wev been waitng for d hen to lay egg pero wla gyapon nag lay more dan a year na cguro. naka pa hatch xa once lang (amo na ang isa ka laki). any tips? or suggestions sa diets, etc? good day sir. sori for the late reply. so proven na gali ang pair mo. try lang sir suggestions ko below, tani mag work 1. separate ang ila nga bata sir sa iban nga cage 2. check the nest box kng clean pa man or need some cleanups kg replacement sang nesting materials, usually pg indi nila gusto and smell indi sila mag sulod. try putting in a little eucalyptus oil (mabakal sa drug store) inside the clean nest box to encourage them to get inside 3. i recommend that you give them mixed seeds (bird seed, canary seeds, oath growths and sunflowers) para complete and nutrients. also give them cuttle bone for calcium and vegetables daily to trigger nesting 4. if the male goes in and checks the box, start na na sir please let me know sir kng may questions pa. im very willing to help
