We just got home yesterday from our yearly trip to Texas. The trip was great, but being home sure feels good too =) I submitted Sweetie (the parrotlet) to the...
Actually - a little. The 70 degree weather is quite pleasant LOL I keep thinking that it feels good to be home - to my OWN home and critters, but that could be...
Hi, my name is Paula. I currently have one cockatiel and one parakeet. Their diet could definately be improved upon and I joined this list to gain nutritional...
Hi Paula and welcome :). What are your birds currently eating? Here are my dietary recommendations for both tiels and budgies (if that's the kind of parakeet...
Well I'm sure others can answer you better than I but, I think that's a really big step and I would suggest getting something that's bigger than a tiel but not...
Hey Sherry, Paula that is probbly the best way to get them interested in other stuff. Also if they like to take a bath you might try a piece of wet lettuce on...
Thanks to everyone who responded to my introduction. I currently have a cockatiel and parakeet that are not eating the optimal diet and I sure appreciate the...

I received this in my email a while back, and have been in correspondence with this person, and have sent some files of my own to help him out. It's totally...
I had told the group 3 weeks ago that my hens were eating up a storm and was wondering why. Several people told me this could be because they were getting...
well i would leave the egg because most likely she will lay another to replace that one if you remove it,from what i have read they usually do no sit on the...
For now - I'd leave the egg and see if she wants to sit on it. Is she caged with any boys? The food should be fine - you might want to cut back on high protein...
I'm sure this has already been answered. And as far as eggs go I don't know what would be different between my budgies and your tiels. But, I would say if...
On the outskirts of a small town, there was a big, old pecan tree just inside the cemetery fence. One day, two boys filled up a bucketful of nuts and sat down...

I've not had that issue with cockatiels (mine are all males) but I've had 2 lovebirds who are chronic egg-layers and I always leave the eggs but shake them up...
Precious' 2 eggs are on the cage grate; if they were to hatch, the babies would just fall through anyway and that is an AWFUL thought to me :(. I don't think...
HAHA, he does the same thing to Casey. I was trying to get pics of him and Casey was right there and he stayed puffy so I couldn't get a good pic! As soon as...
Well Sherry, it was Jan when Sky was sitting and they were on the grate. No one felt thu or got hurt by being on the grate. No health problems either, but in...
So they hatched on the grate? YIKES! I hope I shook the eggs enough...sure don't want any babies... When did you lose all of your birds? That is so very sad...
Sky died just a few months after the babies were born. She changed big time, once the babies were about 2 or 3 weeks old she started picking on them and...
Oh Candy, how sad for you :(... I don't really know about budgies and accepting mates, I know it other species new mates are introduced later but I'm not a...
TY Yea that's what I was thinking that with other parrots you can but most live a lot longer than the budgie too. Well I'll try it and if she don't like him I...
Oh Candy that is awful. What a sad story. I am so sorry that you had to go through this. Your birds too. I sure am glad that Kenneth takes care of the...
