Why I Love Cockatiels Cockatiels make the most wonderful pets. Don’t let their size fool you, because they have oodles of charm and character once you get to know them. My own cockatiel is an addict for head scratches – he just can’t get enough. I think this goes to say with most cockatiels, and II wish there was a gadget that I could buy that could do this for him when I can’t, because he will honestly just sit all day with his head cocked forward waiting for more. Here are a couple of cute cockatiel video’s that people post online of their pets. On this site, which I have been building over the past few years, I have tried to explore all aspects of cockatiels and keeping cockatiels as pets. If you need to find out anything about cockatiels, this is the site that you should find it. Here are some cute video’s I found on the internet that show just what characters cockatiels can be. I think that the only thing that may annoy people is the ear piecing screech that cockatiels do. This normally happens in the mornings and early evenings, or when they are upset suddenly. So if you don’t like noisy birds, then you may prefer a budgie as a pet, who loves to constantly chatter, but more softly than a cockatiel. Remember that the more time you spend with your pet cockatiel, the more he will develop and he will eventually get to love and trust you so much that he will feel like an extended member of the family. Cockatiels are very social birds, and love attention, so don’t be afraid to give it to them.

Reply Hi Michel, Cockatiels are really beautiful and I float with love when they become around me in the park or even in the backyard.

But having them as pet, will be another story and you can develop a deep and close relationship between you and the cockatiels. What do you do if you intend to travel? Have great weekend Reply Thanks for stopping by Safia. You are so lucky to get to see cockatiels in the wild. You don’t get them in the wild at all here in South Africa.

I enjoyed all the videos so much, they are smart and have feelings just as we do. I think that people that love animals are the best people in the world. Thank you for making my day beautiful!
