  • There are lots of reasons why your bird might not want to come out of the cage. Identifying these and working on training to allow your bird to come out of their own terms is super important!

    I love how you are with me at every stage!!! I was actually thinking about this very thing earlier today. It’s so funny I can leave the big door to my conure’s cage open and she will just sit and stare. The one time she did kind of fly out (and in to my chest) she flew right back in. I put a perch on the door as soon as you mentioned it. I’ll follow all the other steps over the coming days. Thank you!

    Sophie, You said something about birds being territorial with their cages, do you suggest changing where their food dishes are frequently??

      I don’t recommend moving food and water, but you can move toys and some perches 😊

    hey sophie my birds have developed polyuria i think due to feeding them veggies everyday (i started a few weeks ago) and i’m really scared and i’m not sure what to do. do i feed less veggies and see if it helps?

    • @BirdNerdSophie
      @BirdNerdSophie  Před 11 měsíci

      Sometimes there’s more water when feeding veggies - you can cut them out for 2 days and see if there’s a difference so you know what’s causing it!

    Hi I’m getting my cockatiel next week and I’ve noticed in your care guide that we need to buy a purifier I don’t mind the dust but do we have to get a purifier coz I’m not able to get one where we live they are very expensive and even more online

I know I have to clean the cage and perches and bowls regularly and before the bird uses them but do I also have to clean the toys ? Sorry for so many questions I just want to be ready and give the bird the best life possible and also thx for your help

    Hi! I just got a new cockatiel yesterday. It’s about 4-6 weeks old and he is weaned and eating fine. He has been sitting with his feathers puffed up most of the day not not really moving from his perch. The bird store clipped his wings so I know that might be stressful too. I’m worried he is sick. Is this normal behavior the first few days home?

    • @BirdNerdSophie
      @BirdNerdSophie  Před 10 měsíci

      I’d personally be concerned that the bird was weaned too early - the earliest they should be fully weaned is 8 weeks old! But saying that, coming to a new home is super stressful so a bird can find that very difficult to start with.

    I am hoping to get some answers here. I have 2 parakeets and brought a cockatiel home. They are all in the same room but in seperate Cages. I am trying to train my cockatiel, but I think I already messed up. He is more interested in them than me. If I remove him from the room for training, he goes crazy calling them and won't focus at all. I have not found a video explaining what you do for training when your new bird doesn't need to be quarantined and can be with your other birds right away. He comes right out so thats not a problem. The problem is getting him back in. Im so confused and feel like i am just messing it all up over and over. Please help.
