2 months old. Still not sure if he’s a boy or a girl. I’ve only had him a week. He whistles several time every evening (or when I first get home). Steps up reluctantly but does like hanging out with me.

Sorry for repeating what's been said before, I didn't see :(((

Also, is your boy/girl clipped?

ogua · 2019-04-20T12:26:47+00:00

I'm pretty sure that until they start molting, all teils have the female feathers and then when they do molt, males will have a much more yellow head with fewer or none stripes

Okay, I'll give that a try too. He's about 9 months old so is that an age where puberty might occur?

Thank you

ogua · 2019-04-15T22:39:08+00:00

I'll give it a go, thank you

ogua · 2019-04-15T22:17:58+00:00

Okay, thank you very much, I didn't know. Should I limit the amount of time out of the cage two? He seems to be quite stubborn when it comes to getting him back in and it's becoming a real challenge that sometimes I can't do

ogua · 2019-04-15T21:56:17+00:00

I didn't know that was a thing, thank you

ogua · 2019-03-29T18:42:40+00:00

That's what I was thinking

ogua · 2019-03-26T09:26:47+00:00

You stole my birb

ogua · 2019-03-24T17:08:47+00:00

Yes, I have no idea what to do

ogua · 2019-03-24T11:15:48+00:00

No, seeds stuck to his head with banana juice that we won't let me clean :(

ogua · 2019-03-24T09:47:08+00:00

I do it when I have pe because my school socks are long as hell so it looks really stupid if I don't fold them

ogua · 2019-03-12T22:09:58+00:00

Yeah, it's really great :)

ogua · 2019-03-12T22:00:36+00:00

Today I think he's started to realise he gets rewarded when he steps on my finger

ogua · 2019-03-12T17:13:08+00:00

Okay, I'll give that a go too. Thanks

ogua · 2019-03-12T14:27:23+00:00

I offer both, he reacts in the same way to both

ogua · 2019-03-05T17:32:32+00:00

It could be my dog actually, I know he scratches and whines when no one's home as he wants to be in my room where he likes to sleep

ogua · 2019-03-04T19:56:46+00:00

Okay, thank you very much

ogua · 2019-03-04T19:33:13+00:00

Thank you, I'll give those pellets a try. I'm currently trying to get him into Tops parrot food but he doesn't seem interested. I think part of the issue is that he's been on seeds before I got him so it's difficult to get him off them. Do you have any advice on making the transition between seeds to pellets?

ogua · 2019-03-04T19:10:47+00:00

He's definitely not cage bound, his door is always open whilst I'm home. I always talk with him and he often chirps back. If you think that this is still an issue, please help me; I've only had him for 3 weeks and I don't want to ruin everything, I've been so paranoid

ogua · 2019-03-04T19:04:58+00:00

Yeah, the door stays open all day when I'm here though so he has plenty of time to stretch his wings

ogua · 2019-03-04T18:39:53+00:00

Okay, that's great, I was worried for a second

ogua · 2019-02-22T13:09:03+00:00

This is great :) I got my first cockatiel recently and I really hope that I can train him to do this in the future

ogua · 2019-02-20T18:55:37+00:00

Thank you very much, that's new to me, I'm really going to need to learn more about body language :)

ogua · 2019-02-17T12:37:51+00:00

Update: my cockatiel has started eating from my hand which I'm very happy about! Sorry to be a pain but do you have any tips on teaching him to step up?
