Cockatiels have always been a dream bird for me, but I wasn’t sure where my life was headed so decided a 15/20 year commitment on top of my dog would be a bit much!
Me and my partner went out on a trip for a few nights, and when we came back, his mom had bought a cockatiel! We all live together so we all take responsibility for the animals.
I’m a big advocate for the best possible animal care that I can provide, and know his cage is in need of some upgrades.
We were told this little fella is 4 months old, but I’m not too sure. Is he? Can you tell by looking at him?
Is he okay being on his own or should he have a friend?
what size cage is ideal for a tiel? Like not minimum, but a GOOD sized cage?
what agcesssories should be in his cage? I know he should have more natural things.
Il
we’re going to try and get him a cage where he can have substrate on the bottom as I’ve seen those and love how hey get to forage on the floor too.
what’s the thoughts on mirrors too? And rope toys? I’ve seen conflicting things on those.
Thanks!
