Does anyone have a cockatial2007-11-24 17:20:13

Yesterday I found one in Arby's parking lot and took it home.How do I care for it.

Answers:

Put it in a cage and feed it cockatiel food. And water. Let it out once a day to play. They can eat parakeet food just as well. You might look in the newspaper "lost and found" ads to see if you can find the owner, but this is a long shot. It must be a tame bird if it let you catch it.

Keep him in a cage. Get someone to clip his wings. Let him out of the cage us much as possible. I have one and am talking of experience. They are like females. Needs lots of TLC

Good luck

The basic things you'll need are: a cage, cockatiel food, and water. Other things you should get are: a cuttle bone, millet spray, and toys. All of these things are easy to find at a pet store. Cockatiels are very loving pets who like lots of attention so play with him often.

ok, first off, buy it a cage. then get it grit, wax paper and a bag of bird food at the pet shop thay says "cockatiel food" but it a thing called a bird protecter(in a little tin @ pet shop) and get it some toys to keep busy, to clean it, at the petshop they also have spray bottles of soap free cleaner for cockatiels.

then you put food and water in the dishes that should have been attached to the cage. next, take the bird protector and attach it to the cage. take a piece of wax paper and put it in the tray at the bottom the sprinkle a pinch of grit on it and a pinch of grit in the food(since birds dont have teeth this helps them digest properly) then take the spray to clean them and spray him a couple times.that should do the trick.they only need to be sprayed about once every two weeks, feed-every day, and change the waxpaper and grit every day!

The first thing you need to do is take it to the vet to make sure it doesn't have any illneses. While at the vet have it's wings cliped to keep it from flying away. THEN YOU NEED TO MAKE SURE NO ONE HAS LOST IT, IT'S NOT NOMRAL TO FIND ONE IN THE WILD, IT'S PROBABLY SOMEONES PET THAT JSUT GOT LOOSE. There are two types of cocalteil food, seed, and pelet. pelet is the best but it may not take to it if it was not raised on it. Birds need regular vet check ups and a lot of attention.
