How to take care of a cockatiel
Your cockatiel needs a lot of attention and care, and you should be ready to be there for your parrots if you want them to be healthy and active. I have listed below 5 pointers on how to take care of your cockatiel parrots:
- Make their living space comfortable for them. Make sure that their cage is big enough for them to fly and stretch their wings.
- Please provide them with toys to imitate their natural habitat, such as things to perch on to keep them active.
- Feed your cockatiel regularly and change their water as often as possible. Also, the best time to observe any sudden behaviour change is during feeding.
- Trim their nails every couple of months but be careful not to cause injury to your bird.
- Clean their house regularly to avoid the build-up of dirt and bacteria.
