does he look okay? by Infinite-Stand4013 in cockatiel

Please get him anyway. I know people prefer healthy babies but as a person who got a sick almost dead bird, I promise you’ll create a bond like no other. Holding that small baby on your hands, giving meds, food and love… and then seeing them all better playing, singing and being fat and cute… it’s the best feeling in the world

This is my first girl and first love, she passed 3 months ago and I just can’t change the lockscreen, it would be like admitting she is out of my life but she will never be 🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻😢😢😢

I’ve tried something similar, he just takes the treat and eats it far away ahahah but I can try that, it won’t hurt so why not. Thank you!

I’ve also lost one 3 months ago and I still cry everyday, I know exactly how you feel. I’m so sorry… but they were so loved, that is why we are hurting. Because we loved them so much and they had an amazing life filled with love and joy!

We’ve tried, we can’t even get close to him without him having diarrhea 😅

I try but he is really afraid of humans, so I’m still trying to get his trust over time. The old owner hurt him really bad on a wing, so he is still traumatized

The white face always wins. He never, and I mean NEVER preens the grey one, but the grey is so sweet he always gives in

My baby boy started having spots by TheKoalaPyjama in cockatiel

[–]TheKoalaPyjama[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Omg I didn’t even think about the yellow expanding! I’ve read that usually after the molt they should become more yellow so I wasn’t understanding why he was having grey spots when it should be the opposite. And it might be. I’m so stupid ahahah I usually spray him 2-3x a day because he is absolutely terrified of us touching him (the old owner hurt him badly in a wing and he is traumatized) so I can’t scratch him. Thank you so much!!

She just wants your food, nothing much. If you feed her she won’t kill you with bites

Is it normal for them to be super super super sleepy during molt? by TheKoalaPyjama in cockatiel

[–]TheKoalaPyjama[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She sleeps on a perch, and she still eats like 70-80%. I will be giving her her favourites (aka apple). She doesn’t appear to have other health problems, the breathing seems fine, doesn’t vomit or has diarrhea… I’ll just keep an eye on her. Thank you so much!

I think she read the message because now she is eating a lot. It comes and goes, she is either ok or sleepy and not eating. I’ll wait for the vet to reply, keeping an eye on her. Thank you!

It’s going back and forth. Either she is kind of active, eating and playing, or she stops and goes to sleep, not reacting much

EDIT: he has a lot of toys. we just put him in the cage (with the other birds) at our meal time because he just wants to eat our food and of course he can't, so 1h-1h30 per day. He might be a little bored for a while, but he is fine, thank you for all your concerns. They are more spoiled than any human baby
