Think of it this way. Your cockatiels use body language to communicate with each other. If you keep whistling and talking to your birds, they will start answering. If they dont have an example, where will they learn :) they're like kids, they absorb information like a sponge.
i have a all white cockatiel and i have been trying to teach her how to tlk but she doesnt she trys because wen i talk to her or whistle at her her mouth will open and shell strt dancing around but she dnt whistle i need help
@cosmmic1 female cockatiels dont talk. they whistel and imitate other birds but even if you teach your bird to talk (it is possible, but rare) you wont understand a word.
@cosmmic1 albino animals are all white and have red eyes. This is lutino cokatiel, grey cockatiels are nature colored. Albino animals have a bit worse sight than other animals but they are ussually smarter. search albino cockatiels in google :)
my cockatiel is 5 months old an he doesn't make a peep =[ he only screams and yells when hes sitting on my window watching birds fly by and hes excited or when i leave the room he calls me. other then that he doesnt talk or chirp at all. sad day =[ i dont understand why. when did yours start whistling?
hey, awsome video, and everyone shuld watch my vid of my cockateil singing and dancing... id appreciate the veiws, and votes, and comments =-D, thanks!!
@sk84life232 : No they aren't. But do you know what's REALLY cool? It's when human garbage such as yourself commits suicide and there's no one around to mourn you -- your remains get thrown into a trash can and no one cares while the maggots feed on what's left of your stinking hide. Cheers!
My bird does this. He won't shut up though. The only thing we here all day is the wolf whistle, my sister at one poit screames "SHUT UPPPP!!!" He looked kinda sad after that so I forced her to apologize him.
We had a cockatiel. It is the most beautiful, amicable pet you could ever invest in. While we gave it a chance to fly away, I'm sure that had he flown to a nearby tree, We could've gotten him to fly back given that he was in love with his reflection on a pocket sized mirror. Whenever you made a muffled clap sound that sounded like the mirror when you close it, he would fly to it or if you had it he would hunt you down to get to it.
At sum parts your cocketiel says "whatcha do'in?" and at 0:31 he purrs! Just like my cocketiel, me and Flurrie (my cocketiel) purr back and forth to eachother, and he meows to me, and also tries to sound like a rooster lol :D
same bread as my lil boy Buddy, he doenst take much interest in talking though, well he talks in his own language and answers questions with squeels, he is still under a year old so maybe he will start talking when he gets older and calmer
OMG what a cutie! my cockatiel can say preet girl, hey Lani, good girl, goodmorning lani, Myra (cats name) Jacko (dogs name) and get out Jacko :D your tiel is adorable!
@coolaunry haha yes definitly a cockatiel :) a very special one at that, shes learnt (in a year since i posted my last comment) how to whistle pop goes the weasel, say her cage mates name "lily" and i added to calling the cat so she now says "myra pus pus pus"
@coolaunry i have got 4 cockatiel. but i got them for breeding. but they are showing no signs yet (u know what i mean :p) do u have a pair that breeds?
Better be careful with having them outdoors. Make sure their wings are clipped if you do bring them outside, or there is a high likelihood it will fly away.....happened to me :'( I didn't know though, I was only around 10 years old.
@xDamnedHoodyx they can do that or you can teach them. just take them to a place where there are little or no distractionns and repeat one word for about 10 minutes. keep doing it everyday and they will pick it up. i just tought my bird phil to say "hello"
Tiels - even if their wings are clipped can still fly a certain distance. But my baby is not clipped anymore for safety reasons. So she can get out of the way. Just need to be careful with opening outside doors.
Actually its better to clipped their wings, at least they can walked around and have some freedom. Rather than putting them in the cage, they still can't fly can they?
Getting a pet = not giving your pet full freedom.
It applies to any pet, but at the same time, you ensure that they dont die.
I dont think its cruel at all.
Giving them freedom by letting them go, i believe they'll die even sooner.
look at classical conditioning thats how you have to train them up look at pavlov and the explanation associate your hand with food all the time eventually after a while he will come on your hand shoulder and become tame the rest is up to you but once tame you will then be able to teach whistling and little tricks
theres nothing wrong with clipping birds when i first got mine it always flies away so i clipped there wings and now they sit on my shoulder and all, it just maked them more reliable on you when thew grow back ill see if i needa clip em again
"his wings weren't clipped well at one point and he did fly away" you mean his wings were cutted so he wasnt able to fly...? i could kill those ppl who do that to their birds....its bird JOB to fly. Flying is one of those thigs wich make them happy and healthy. its just good that he flight away....ill bet his life is much happier like that......
haha yeah in terms of teaching them to speak, they just pick certain syllables up better than others. unfortunately, his wings weren't clipped well at one point and he did fly away :(....I only had him for about 8 months
I feel sorry for you cos our cocketeil, Chico, doesn't have his wings clipped. The front door and living room door both happened to be open and he flew out. My fault. He was across the road in the tree's like at the very top and we couldn't get to him. My dad put out fliers and stuff. 2 days later my dad text me saying that someone found him and we got him back. We know it was him by the tunes he sings and his markings. All the same.
Very cute! Are his wings clipped? Don't you worry about him flying away or getting in trouble outside? I'm very paranoid about my birds getting outside.
this girl who lives down the street from me loved her bird and she took it outside with her one moring and it flew away they spent months trying to find it =(
Birds don't get "pregnant". They lay eggs. They only need to be bred by a male once to have all eggs inseminated. The female will lay a clutch of eggs. The number of eggs can vary. The female will need a plain wooden box with no bedding to lay her clutch in. See your pet store for the box. It must be the correct size for the bird.
okay, smartass, how about the # of eggs? I doubt 19 is normal for one clutch. btw THAT WAS NO HELP! I'm not stupid, I know the basics. I meant I need help because my birds are extremely horny and one of them doesn't want to sit on the eggs. and the other still wants to mate. 19 EGGS!!! not normal
Well with that kind of attitude, I doubt anyone is going to want to help you. As for me stating that birds don't get pregnant as you put it, you'd be amazed at the amount of people who own birds and know nothing about them. Try googling cockatiels, I'm sure you'll find all the answers you need there. Giving the birds a breeder box will stop the female from laying eggs. Neither bird will set on the eggs until the eggs are in a breeder box. Was that enough help this time?
Since the breeder box didn't help and she still lays eggs daily, then I would recommend bringing her to an avian veterinarian. Until then, give her some hard boiled eggs with the shells crushed into the egg. She is in need of the proteins the eggs can give her. But most importantly, get her to a vet before all the egg laying kills her. Also watch her in case she becomes egg bound. That will kill her too if left unchecked.
