I just bought a cockatiel the other day. He hasnt budged since we brought him home. He seems so sad. Then I played this video and he started chirping! Thank God for your little birdy.. He is precious.

your most welcome, we forgot to cover him one night & he was a quivering wreck in the morning. ps mine loves your little one's chirping he's looking over my shoulder now : )

Thank you, jools251. I was 99% positive that I was doing the right thing with their sleep schedule (covering and uncovering). Thanks for reiterating that bit of info.!

[jools251]

They DO need to be covered at night & petiteone67 is absolutely right. they need a sleep pattern like any living creature. we cover ours at 9.30pm & un-cover at 6am when we get up. this is very normal & healthy. it certainly does not give them negative feelings about his cage. happy ~ secure & tucked up in bed.

I've never heard of that before. I've had cockatiels for 20 yrs., and they've been covered at night (they are on a sleep schedule), and uncovered in the morning. I will ask my Vet about this...

[jamminjunk101]

You cover their cages. Your not supposed to do that becuase it gives them negative felings about their cage and it makes them fel like their trapped under a net

[PetiteOne67]

That's awesome! Thank you for sharing this great news.  I hope your new cockatiel keeps on singing! =D
