SHhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh Babies our sleeping
Come visit the Nursery
I got my first Cockatiel Gigi In December of 1998, Went to get a parakeet, then seen her.I feel in love. and about 400 dollars later (cage etc) I was hooked om them forever.Then In August for my birthday I was given Augi.He was only 9 weeks old. never knew i had a true pair. till the eggs came.Then I learned what a fun and wonderful experience it would be having the babies
.Gigi and Augi were a bit to young she laid all of 18 eggs and didn't know what to do , and I couldnt take it anymore losing all the babies.SO her next batch I went and learned what to do. and ended up with 3 babies...what a joy it was....I didnt keep any of them.....
Now 2 years later I have 5 new babies, and lost Augi on April 5th found him dead laying on his babies. My heart was broke. Now i am trying to save all the babies, hoping for one that will look like him...It will never be him.He was very special to me....
About cockatiels.............
Cockatiels are small,come in all sorts of other shades of grey. Mostly, the color doesn't matter .In general sweet-tempered, a tame cockatiel will often love to do things like:*take showers with you, wolf-whistle,* eat off your plate * demand head scratches, demand to be let on your shoulder for a ride, and in general make cute noises and ask to be picked up and played with.A cockatiel also needs companionship. If you can't devote at least 15 minutes to half an hour per day of intensive company to your bird, either don't get it in the first place, or buy it a cockatiel companion A hand-fed cockatiel (which comes "pre-tamed") will range in price from $80 to $100.I agree with the general assertion that males seem to be quite vocal and talk and somewhat easily offended. But if you want a bird that's likely to learn to whistle short tunes or maybe talk, a male is a good choice (they're cute when they sit on your shoulder intently staring at you as you whistle)! Females supposedly are mello * and just love to snuggle, but they are quieter than males. However, young birds are all colored like adult females, and most cockatiels are generally sweet birds (even when in a bad mood, they mostly just squeal and attack your fingers without causing real pain or damage).
Cockatiels can live from 15 to 25 years, with good care. they can climb up and down ladders, hang from things, shred toys, and generally expend lots of energy, . They're also quiet, peaceful cockatiels can also be extremely cute and adorable. They're curious, intelligent little birds, who love to climb,take off your glasses, they love earrings,sit on shoulders, take baths in the kitchen sink, and play with watches,and anything else that looks interesting. A tame Cockatiel will chirp to be picked up and played with,Their so much fun, and our cute to boot.
