@winkiedoodles My tiel's name is Ollie, and he is almost 13 years old now. He's so beautiful. I don't have any vids, I do have plenty of pics, but every-time I get the camera out to videotape him, he freezes. It's like he knows...he's so smart... I'm going to have to try and set up a hidden camera....and try to out smart him...;)
@msmandy00 He sounds wonderful and I know what you mean about camera-shy. KC hears the camera chime and clams up, too (unless he's in the bathroom looking at himself!). I think there's a way to shut the action noise off; that might help.
@amberlight27510 Well, I'm not a bird trainer, but ours just stepped up on our fingers when we put our finger down near his feet. They seem to know they can perch there. Best wishes with your cockatiel!
@58Jericho85 Thanks, 58Jericho, for watching KC's video. He seems to get bored with the song rather quickly and goes off into a jazz whistling routine. He's a great bird.
@lexikalfanfic Thanks so much. I've heard of the plucker birds; some sort of compulsion or disorder perhaps. If they are females, they probably won't talk. We had a wonderfully sweet and friendly female but her vocalizations were mostly unpleasant screeches. Happy holidays!
I had a cockatiel named Paulie....he thought EVERY 2 syllable word was "uh-oh!" i had a dog named Mable, and when he saw her he'd say "Uh-oh!" when someone walked in the door instead of "hello" (he said hello ONCE) he would say "Uh-oh!
@KeswickCamp08 Uh-oh! That's cute. K.C. isn't our first cockatiel, but he's definitely the biggest talker we've ever had (or heard). His latest antics involve getting the dogs all stirred up, deliberately, by hanging upside down and spreading his wings. He loves to drive them bonkers!
@Winkiedoodles thats so funny! mine i s very attention-needing. we couldnt keep him where we moved, so my mom gave him to someone who works in a drs office and they let him fly all day and he lands on the patients shoulders and talks to them and whistles and tweets. if you look up "Paulie sings with Natalia Tena" he should be the 1st video there.
@GordonOsmena Thank you so much! I don't know why this video is a 'viewer's favorite' of KC's talents. There's far better videos of him in the playlist. Thanks again!
@Honesty107 Awwww, that was the finest compliment ever, thank you! If you are serious about getting a cockatiel be sure to check out the good, bad and ugly of bird ownership. It's kinda like being married to a 6 oz. ball of feathers.
@thetriggerhappypwner Ha! So glad you liked his "performance." This really isn't his best video; he shows off his talents a lot better in other vids in the playlist on our channel. You are starting your 'tiels off just right. KC was, and remains, a really friendly bird (except when moulting) due to being hand raised and 'humanized' real early on. Best wishes and do you plan to put up vids of your 'tlels? Don
@kyokun4eva Awww, how nice of you to say! He's an ordinary grey cockatiel with an unusual gift of gab. There's even better videos of his talking on our channel. Thanks for watching and commenting!
@nataliebowman79 I think you're right on at least one instance; maybe more. It is our fault for confusing him since we started saying "pretty girl" and then switched to saying "pretty bird." Best wishes!
@Winkiedoodles Oh yeah, Its this video game I used to play a long while ago. In between parts 0:40 and 1:07 it sounds like your Cockatiel is speaking the way they do through dialog. Like whenever the characters in that game talk, they make an extremely similar sound to the way your Cockatiel was speaking in between 0:40 and 1:07.
I thought it was pretty cute and picked up on this immediately. xD
@Lance241151 Oh for Heaven's sake, there is a resemblance to his 'gibberish' and that silly scratching voice in that game. I don't think he's ever played it since we keep him off the Wii and keyboards (ha).
I have a (probably female, cause she only tweets) cockatiel that's a year and a half old now. She's so devoted to me and clings to my clothes like a barnacle on a ship wherever I go. Great companion bird, and moves with me so smoothly.
@basspig Thanks for watching and commenting! Your bird sounds like a wonderful girl! The friendliest one we ever owned was a female, too, but she didn't have the talking or whistling talent, either. She'd make plenty of noise at times, but was a sweetie like yours. Best wishes!
@Winkiedoodles I want to get another cockatiel soon, a male this time, one that is singing, because they're such good whistlers. Clyde, my only cockatiel at the moment, is akin to the nagging housewife in a long marriage--she isn't shy to express her impatience when she wants a neck rub and doesn't get it fast enough. I get that warning peck on the face. I'm sure you know the gesture. :-) Right now I have a cockatiel and a Grey parrot. They coexist and tolerate eachother in neighboring cages.
@basspig Your female 'tiel's name is Clyde? How funny! We did a name change when our 'girl' Lacey started talking.....oopsie....she is a he. So we changed Lacey to Casey (K.C.) and the blabbing continues. You are spot on about long marriages. They live a very long time and have predictable behavior patterns just like us. We have a blue and white budgie that keeps KC company (in separate cages). The little one gets real upset when we take KC out of the room and vice-versa. Silly animals!
@Winkiedoodles I know, it's kinda funny, but my 7 year old daughter named her before we started to suspect that 'he' was likely a 'she'. The name just stuck. So Clyde hangs out with Yuki, our African Grey, and we call them the Odd Couple, because Clyde is a slob like Oscar Madison and Yuki is fastidious and 'proper' like Felix Ungar in that 60s TV sitcom of the same name.
Clyde is very adaptable and moves well with me, so I don't feel like I have to slow down or limit my activities.
@basspig Yuki and Clyde, the Odd Couple! Very cute, especially since I grew up watching Jack Lemmon and Walter Matthau on TV and in the movies. Sadly, Walter passed in 2000 and Lemmon in 2001, but their legacy lives on! Best wishes, Don
@Winkiedoodles The Odd Couple was Tony Randall and Jack Klugman in the TV series, but you're right about Matthau being in the movie. Art Carney, somehow never set right as the neater of the two.. I can't get images of him playing in The Honeymooners out of my mind.
@SailorBalance You are so kind, thank you. We started the whole cockatiel saga many years ago with the sweetest female 'tiel you'll ever meet. We thought this one (we originally named Lacey) was a female until "she" started talking; hello K.C.!
@slideshowgurl Ha! Well, I can't say about your bird, but we've had several others (before K.C.) that have had "issues." He's in a zone of his own. Thanks for watching and commenting!
@redhead1928 Aww, thanks for asking about that! Somewhere in the KC videos playlist he's real young and is sitting on top of his cage, looking at his mirror, and saying "give me a kiss" over and over. I think its called Kiss Kiss Kissing Cockatiel or something like that. Anyway, my wife and I were always "kissy" and he picked up on the words and the sound and still loves his rubs and kisses. When I take him out of his cage and up to Brenda he'll lean forward and "kiss"; quite charming.
@XxxXCuteiishXxxX Thanks for watching! I used an earlier version of Cyberlink editing software and will admit it wasn't one of my best productions (from an editing standpoint). The latest Cyberlink is a much more powerful editing program. Best wishes!
@freeagentsgirl619 You are too kind! He has quite a few videos on our channel where he's talking and doing other cool stuff. He's amazing. Thanks for watching!
@shamanking48 We didn't do much of anything in the way of training. He was hand-raised, thus friendly, and we just talked to him, let him out of his cage and interacted with him, and he started to show his personality after a while. We whistled several tunes but he picked up on the Rock a Bye Baby song. Good luck with your bird! Oh, and if you have papillons keep them from having your bird for lunch.
@UwatchinQ We had the same experience once with a cockatiel my wife bought at a pet store. His name was Zorro and we had high hopes for him but got screeching and biting instead. We traded him in.
I'm getting my new tiel today. My old one died of old age a few years back. I'm so happy I found this video, this has made me so excited to get another tiel!!! :D
great Cockatiel i love them :) ....and 1 question , how much time is needed for cockatiel to learn one melody , for example 9 second long melody ? please if somebody knows , answer to me
@MrLolzila Thank you. I don't know how long it would take to teach a melody. When he was young, we would whistle a lot of different songs in his presence and he latched onto this one. Lots of 'tiels sing different songs but I have no clue as to whether or not you can specifically direct them towards one song. They are just quirky birds I suppose.
@Winkiedoodles and 1 more question , do I have to tame him first and than to teach different songs or not ? because this is my second cockatiel after about 3-4 years, and i have him for about 15-20 days and he learned how to return in cage and he eats sometimes from my hand but he is still afraid to be on my shoulder or on my hand and I hope he will be good while time is passing :)
@MrLolzila We were very fortunate to get KC when he was young and had been hand raised so he was very tame. I think you are on the right track with your cockatiel. He's becoming your friend and the more he trusts you the more his personality will come out. Just keep interacting with him as much as you can and I'm sure he'll be wonderful.
@Winkiedoodles cockatiel which I had before 3-4 years was very very great and unfortunately...hawk or eagle got him because cockatiel was outside with me as usually and that's reason why i got this 1, and I hope this 'tiel will be like last one ( but for this, i am not really sure that i will let him outside ) :)
@Winkiedoodles i am from Bosnia , actually in Republika Srpska which is part of Bosnia :) ... and what you think about dimensions of cage 30x36x50[cm] for tiel ? I think it's enough to sleep there , and during the day he is released inside of house
oh thts cool i had a cockateil but my grandma took him he acttually spoke a few word and whistle nice now i got a all white one butits a girl so its ganna be hard for her to learn i berly got her 2 weeks ago wanna teach her to tlk but idk
@ronl1973 No, we don't clip his wings. We also don't let him fly around freely any more because of the whole two papillons thing. I've heard it is a great idea to clip wings if you want your bird to get out and sit on its cage or its roosts and places like that.
@aliXsin Yes, in fact it is in a way. When we got the bird (very young) we thought it was a female so we named "her" Lacey. Well, what to do when we realize it is a male? The solution was: Casey. Since we lived near Kansas City (and were Chiefs fans) we just shortened it to K.C. Truth is stranger than fiction!
@applesaucechaos Oh how wonderfully sweet that must have been! We've considered getting a female to be KC's mate but then we'd have little ones and the birds live 15 years or so. It would be worth considering if we had an aviary!
@emaya333 Our female 'tiel didn't talk either, but she was a wonderful and very tame bird. Sounds like you've got a flock of talking birdies to entertain each other!
@AlyssaShotgun Aww, surely she's not! Supposedly the females don't talk. We had a female once and she was such a great, friendly bird but didn't talk. Only screeched.
I LOVE this bird!!! i finally convinced my mom to get me one and he can talk! i dont know when he started talking but he can say: peek-a-boo, hello, pretty bird, and he can do the wolf whistle and some song but i dont know with one its still a mystery haha! anyway i played this and he started whistling so i thought the dog was trying to get him but he was actually singing along! it was so cute!! Thumbs Up if you love this video!! :D
@FunnyOnTape123 Well that is wonderful! We got KC when he was real young and he didn't say anything for a long time and then he started blabbing and hasn't shut up since! :)
@QuackQuack61 Thanks a lot. Well, he's no harder than a female we used to own. They do want you to play with and interact with them often but that's what you get when you have pets!
@QuackQuack61 sorta i have one and hes quite a handful! dont for get to clean their cage every week or else it might get too dirty for them to live in. and if you do get one make sure to put in LOTS of toys like mirrors and bells to keep him happy. also you need to feed him and give him water ALL the time or else he or she will starve.
@11nguyen omg i know exactly what u mean. my bird bella always does this hissing sound when i whistle sharply near her. she gets all excited and fluffs her feathers.. hmm i wonder why are birds do this lol
how did you get him to sing all that my 2 year old can only sing the first part of Jesus Loves me and he only get that right half of the time then he can say pretty bird ,no ,and wolf wistles
@hippytreeloverperson When he was young we whistled several songs and he started repeating that one. He doesn't do well with the second or other stanzas, but he just tries anyway!
@Winkiedoodles Don't worry, It wont brain damage your bird, In fact, birds LOVE looking in the mirror at themself. sometimes they get attatched to it and they thing its another bird, so they try to show off for them :P . I think thats what ur bird does. anyways. Very nice bird :) I'm getting a parrotlet and I hope I can teach it well, I've had a bird before. But, Do you have any tips for training?
@PenguinzGoRawr Thanks, Penguinz, I confess that the "brain damaged" description was a bit of an exaggeration. We know about birds and mirrors and KC definitely loves his mirror. About all I can say about training is to talk to your bird and handle them as much as you can while keeping them safe. This one just has a talent and a nice personality (when he's not moulting and moody).
he is soooooooooo cute!!!!!

@azwilko23 They start out shy and the longer you interact with them (especially the young ones) the more they trust you.

@UwatchinQ We had the same experience once with a cockatiel my wife bought at a pet store. His name was Zorro and we had high hopes for him but got screeching and biting instead. We traded him in.

great Cockatiel i love them :) ....and 1 question , how much time is needed for cockatiel to learn one melody , for example 9 second long melody ? please if somebody knows , answer to me
MrLolzila 7 months ago
@MrLolzila Thank you. I don't know how long it would take to teach a melody. When he was young, we would whistle a lot of different songs in his presence and he latched onto this one. Lots of 'tiels sing different songs but I have no clue as to whether or not you can specifically direct them towards one song. They are just quirky birds I suppose.
Winkiedoodles 7 months ago
@Winkiedoodles and 1 more question , do I have to tame him first and than to teach different songs or not ? because this is my second cockatiel after about 3-4 years, and i have him for about 15-20 days and he learned how to return in cage and he eats sometimes from my hand but he is still afraid to be on my shoulder or on my hand and I hope he will be good while time is passing :)
MrLolzila 7 months ago
@MrLolzila We were very fortunate to get KC when he was young and had been hand raised so he was very tame. I think you are on the right track with your cockatiel. He's becoming your friend and the more he trusts you the more his personality will come out. Just keep interacting with him as much as you can and I'm sure he'll be wonderful.
Winkiedoodles 7 months ago
@Winkiedoodles cockatiel which I had before 3-4 years was very very great and unfortunately...hawk or eagle got him because cockatiel was outside with me as usually and that's reason why i got this 1, and I hope this 'tiel will be like last one ( but for this, i am not really sure that i will let him outside ) :)
MrLolzila 7 months ago
@MrLolzila Unless you live in Australia where there are millions of them, cockatiels should probably be inside safe from harm.

@Winkiedoodles i am from Bosnia , actually in Republika Srpska which is part of Bosnia :) ... and what you think about dimensions of cage 30x36x50[cm] for tiel ? I think it's enough to sleep there , and during the day he is released inside of house
MrLolzila 7 months ago
@MrLolzila Sure, sounds plenty big. Say hello to your Cockatiel (in Bosnian of course!). :)

Do you have your cockatiels wings clipped? Because I'm thinking of buying a pair of cockatiels for my daughter.
ronl1973 8 months ago
@ronl1973 No, we don't clip his wings. We also don't let him fly around freely any more because of the whole two papillons thing. I've heard it is a great idea to clip wings if you want your bird to get out and sit on its cage or its roosts and places like that.

@Winkiedoodles ur so welcomne. is KC an acronym for anything?
aliXsin 9 months ago
@aliXsin Yes, in fact it is in a way. When we got the bird (very young) we thought it was a female so we named "her" Lacey. Well, what to do when we realize it is a male? The solution was: Casey. Since we lived near Kansas City (and were Chiefs fans) we just shortened it to K.C. Truth is stranger than fiction!
Winkiedoodles 9 months ago
I used to have a pair of birds (male and female) and One would sing and the other would dance to the other one singing, it was so cute! :)
applesaucechaos 9 months ago
@applesaucechaos Oh how wonderfully sweet that must have been! We've considered getting a female to be KC's mate but then we'd have little ones and the birds live 15 years or so. It would be worth considering if we had an aviary!
Winkiedoodles 9 months ago
She makes a lot of funny noises and even does a couple of tricks. Sometimes i think she'll say something because she watches me with such intent!

@AlyssaShotgun Aww, surely she's not! Supposedly the females don't talk. We had a female once and she was such a great, friendly bird but didn't talk. Only screeched.

I LOVE this bird!!! i finally convinced my mom to get me one and he can talk! i dont know when he started talking but he can say: peek-a-boo, hello, pretty bird, and he can do the wolf whistle and some song but i dont know with one its still a mystery haha! anyway i played this and he started whistling so i thought the dog was trying to get him but he was actually singing along! it was so cute!! Thumbs Up if you love this video!! :D

Winkiedoodles 9 months ago
@QuackQuack61 sorta i have one and hes quite a handful! dont for get to clean their cage every week or else it might get too dirty for them to live in. and if you do get one make sure to put in LOTS of toys like mirrors and bells to keep him happy. also you need to feed him and give him water ALL the time or else he or she will starve.

@finsent0 Well, he's been chatting in the mirror for years and is still the same brain damaged bird. Does your bird have brain damage also?
Winkiedoodles 1 year ago
@Winkiedoodles Don't worry, It wont brain damage your bird, In fact, birds LOVE looking in the mirror at themself. sometimes they get attatched to it and they thing its another bird, so they try to show off for them :P . I think thats what ur bird does. anyways. Very nice bird :) I'm getting a parrotlet and I hope I can teach it well, I've had a bird before. But, Do you have any tips for training?
PenguinzGoRawr 1 year ago
@PenguinzGoRawr Thanks, Penguinz, I confess that the "brain damaged" description was a bit of an exaggeration. We know about birds and mirrors and KC definitely loves his mirror. About all I can say about training is to talk to your bird and handle them as much as you can while keeping them safe. This one just has a talent and a nice personality (when he's not moulting and moody).

@Winkiedoodles Np . Thanks for the tip :). When I get mine i'll practise with him :) .
