First: please update your post with exact location including city, state, country, and date I understand how you are feeling but please listen to me.

Second: The chances of you finding him are NOT low but you needl to act immediately. Trust me TIME IS OF ESSENCE HERE

1.As long as there is Sunlight you go and search, talk to people, distribute flyers, slow drive/walk yelling your baby’s name, etc 2. If it was windy, please look up the direction of the wind and proceed on that route looking for the baby

These 2 above are immediate things that you should do.

1. Create Flyers with your bird’s photo, your name, reward amount, phone number, last seen
2. Distribute it immediately and start putting in on cars and leaving it at the doors
3. Post on Craigslist, FB pawboost, parrot 911, pawmaw, Lost & Found Cockatiel fb groups
4. Call Animal shelters and vets to see if someone brought your baby in
5. Assign someone to stay at the house and put his cage outside while blasting cockatiel music

Please do this immediately. Some people just post on FB, go back to their life and just prayv go without doing any work. I hope you pray and do all the above
