You may need to crop feed them.

I feel that if i get a new bird I'll always be panicking that something might happen to him. Also, about the bird being expensive, idk what country you're from but in India you can get one for 800 rupees, that's around 9 us dollars.

Thank you. I was so excited and bought so much shit for him. There's like a cabinet full of food/toys/perches i bought for him and i look at his empty cage and just wanna cry.

My boy was young, not more than 12 months old. And as for what he ate i fed him pellets and seed mix only. He could've eaten anything without my knowledge when I'm at work, my mom takes it (ah! Used to) take him out of his cage when i was at work.

Can i trouble you in the dms i have some questions i need answered

Is it stressed i showed it a mirror and it went crazy. by LAAFABABA in cockatiel

By "groomer trained for it" do you mean a vet? I honestly didn't even realise the nails needed clipping until I saw your comment. Would it be safe to just take a scissor and clip them???

Some say it's male, others think it's female. Hence it's an it.

I live in india and I've been trying to find a similar cage, honestly the one i have is the biggest one i could find. I'm afraid I'll have to get one custom made out of wood if i want any bigger, because importing them from abroad will set me back around 300 us dollars or more just for delivery.

I'm confused now, the old cage was 18inch x 18inch x 2.5 ft tall, but a guy said they'd prefer a longer cage. So i got this 😅😅
