Yes I do experience that as well! I’ve heard it formed due eating seeds and drinking from it. Still not sure about it but this is what I’ve found so far.

Yes,I get the same in the water bowl. I wash it out with Cider Vinegar and add a few drops of CV to the water.

Too lucky bro my Cokutail bird is not able to walk properly from both legs he have to walk forwards by his beak help can you plz suggest me which medicine should I provide him to walk his legs again properly plz bro.

@@onlyforyou9999 I looked up based on the symptoms you have described your bird possibly has the disease known as bird ataxia. Your bird can recover. She/he must be hospitalized and will be given intravenous antibiotics and fungals for a host of reasons, unhealthy beak and feet, atrophied muscles, so I would google bird ataxia and get the cockatiel to a vet immediately

@@lisakadams3767 Thank you so much for replying so only this medicines are enough or are there any more plz suggest me and only I didn't understood is what you told about to keep my bird in vet means should I put wet cloth on his legs something like that?

?

True. I love shredding collard greens with parsley, or broccoli and parsley or bokchoy. They love parsley and it's not bad for your bird it's one of the healthiest for your bird.💛

You are correct Hanna.

@@chollyappleseed1969 i was referring to smaller animals, like birds or children, whereas it is not opitmal to provide spinach in too large amounts. also, the information you just posted was from an automated google search; you are clearly very researched.

I am the one who ruined the 69 likes

Greens you can give daily.

Same here. Our cockatiel are pretty dumb.

I always gave them stuff they love on a certain plate, like egg and some seeds once a week, after a while I slowly started to switch the food on that plate. Now they eat basically everything what I put on there

Did you chop it up into tiny pieces? You can trick them into eating it by chopping them very tiny and then mixing it with their seeds

My boy isn’t a big fruit lover… however, he only eats the tops of broccolini, spinach and loves carrot peel! He hated carrot chunks but loves to play with, and eat, the peeled/shaved carrot! He won’t eat grated tho, only peeled for some reason 🤷🏼‍♀️😂 I hope this helps!

I found the Zupreem pelleted cockatiel food has a lot of nutrients and the birds love it. It gives them the feeling they are eating seed. But my birds do like kale and other greens.

Chop it finely , layer it under some quality crumble pellets , spend some time down near the birds food bowl , they like being praised when they eat very much ! Can do a chop mix & refrigerate say every 4 days . ( my knife skills have really improved )

A qué te refieres con fórmula?

Yes.. you can give as I mentioned in the chart

@@finchforum6466 thanks . Because i bought a 4month old male cockatiel 1 month ago and im just giving him seeds and eggs once a week and i didnt know what else should i put i got some fresh corn that im going to give him with some lettuce

Yes..it's wrong.. 😐. Can't do anything. Uploaded video can't edit again🤷

Sometimes I see them call them cocktails😅

Exactly the same as mine 😀

I got my birds to try strawberries by cuttting them up and sprinkling them with lots of seeds, so they could eat the seeds on it and then started tasting the strawberry. Now strawberry is their favourite fruit. You can do the same with apple and banana slices 😊

Yes

Yes , that's about the right quantity to offer . They will go through it all and pick a selection . I do 1/3 teaspoon of chia seeds , then finely chopped vegies then quality crumble pellets on top . Vegi mix made fresh every 4th day . Discard what's not eaten every day , I throw it outside & wild birds are happy to consume it . Our teil was a confirmed seed only bird but not any more . Change water daily & remove greasy film from sides of water bowl

same got him on feb, congrats btw :)

Yes, this applies to all parrots.

Give them in a different time. That will be better. Otherwise they will.focus on their favorite treat.

You can give carrot and tomatoes(remove all green parts from tomatoes) , never give raw beans. Give Well cooked beans.

It should be cooked rice

Always cooked but hope your bird is not on a rice only diet. It needs more than that.. bright colored and dark green leafy veggies. Never lettuce, gives them diarrhea 💩

Yes. If they started self eating. Of course you can feed them

finch forum thx ☺️

yes one of his wings wont raise as high as the other. i guess that how his wing has set, but he not seem to be hampered by that.. he flies really, REALLY fast and no problem getting head height (6ft2") and then picking a landing spot and nailing it, straight off the floor. atfirst he couldn't be touched cos pain in wings and def not fly when i got him. he climb everywhere with beak and toes at first. now he think he an eagle, with waiter service.

i always let him taste my food when i eat. he shakes it out of his beak if he not like it. i dont give raw tomatoes. they far too acidic and he gets hyper noisy and what seems like irritation, for at first seemed no reason. i stopped raw tomatoes . he fine. but still slow on green foods.

i guess, i didnt read and and go about learning how to treat him by researching the internet. i avoided it actually. i didnt want to have these pre-conceived ideas and huge vets bills. i wanted him to direct his life. we each have healthy respect and he happy and sings loads and imitates all kinds of household appliances. tells me when the microwave have beeped or the kettle has boiled. reminds me to stir my tea (teas spoon against china cup is very attractive noise for him, so he anticipates it after kettle boils.) he even anticipates bathroom light and makes the noise of the pull cord switch if i leave the room whilst its dark. i think we each just live and let live and understand each other. i'll know if hes poorly. he had a rough start before i got him, caged, anxious and broken from a dealer. rejected by other customers. dealer tried make him fly. and he just bit and bit and bit. he was sore and needed a home away from a small aviary with no heat. only being able to feed from the floor or climbing all around to find the good food the other birbs flew to. he is safe and happy now. :)

No need to boil all greens..

Don't, please. Cheese is very hard to metabolize by the liver. It's like giving rubber to your birdie!

5:40 they are lactose intolerant mate! Its under the toxic food list for ur birdie

You can give raw ladies finger No need to cook

@@finchforum6466 ok

No Don't feed raw

Take the seeds out, let them go hungry for a little while, mix the seeds with the veggie, and then give it to them. They might gobble up the veggies along with the seeds due to hunger.

How's your bird doing

NO OR ONLY IF THEY GROW TOGETHER

strawberries are perfectly safe (and even beneficial) for cockatiel consumption

What happened?

same, put one food for hours he'll eventually eat it, dont force him

They have posted a video ig u can check it out

Yep they are! My bird loves green grapes

Only millet seeds?

Try frozen baby peas

Yes. Limited amount. As I mentioned in the chart.

@@finchforum6466 Hmmm okay. Cause I taught this is cannibalism. And thanks for information

@@maple5022 Wouldn't it be more like a person eating a primate? Hell, maybe not even that. Its probably more like a person eating any mammal. Chicken and eggs are the only "people food" that my 2.5 year old female will reliably eat.

Yes, preferably the peel

Hmmm that's weird 🧐

@@snowandlemon439 Please do not feed your cockatiel any of these lol. Eggshells maybe.. but that's about it.

@@ginesthilla I don't have a cockatiel and being a bird expert I know these are harmful for budgies but not for cockatiel.

@@snowandlemon439 oh damn... So I was right then 😁

@@ginesthilla Cockatiels can eat small amount of meat and fish but it should be of good quality but still I don't prefer that.

You should not give egg everyday. Once or twice in a week.(boiled egg)

@@shyambalakrishna7353 yeah I give boiled egg just once . After my cocktail death I asked a specialist he said that cockatiel Is a pure vegetarian
