I am happy I found your website, My husband and I are new cockatiel owners..we have perry in a large cage filled with different perches and toys in our family room(no drafts) and he seems to be happy, just wish we knew what his little noises mean..sometimes he sings sometimes he sounds quiet excited..can not get him to eat anything except seeds, however I do offer greens and fruit…anything that could help us be a better parent to perry would be so helpful..

Hey, my grandmother really wants a pet. Are cockatiel’s a good pet for someone elderly? She lives alone and would probably be as dependant on this bird as much as it is on her. I’m just wondering how much (weekly) maintenance i will be doing to help her out.

This didn’t help at all… covers no basics what-so-ever. Waste of my time.
Sorry to hear that Wayne. Maybe you should cage her. She will be absolutley, 100% dependant on YOU. Feed her at a regular time every day. Talk to her constantly. When you let her out to fly, do so in a confined space. Be in the room with her- just watching. Then put her back into the cage. Make a dead-on rutine of this. I don’t know how long it will take untill she is broke- if ever it does happen! This is a highly motified version of how I deal with “cranky colt syndrome”.
Hope I helped.
