Hello, I have a 10-week-old baby cockatiel that was weaned by the breeder at 8 weeks. She came home with me, and I think she regressed. The first few days were fine, no baby crying, but very nervous to be left alone. She is now more comfortable alone but the baby crying is intense and […]
I know my girl is too young to breed so my intention was to remove eggs as she laid them, but they are only pea sized so I assume they will not be fertile and will be safe for her to sit on until she decides to chuck them out. Am I correct?
I first bought this item today for my Parrot. I didn’t give him any yet. After reading how it can spoil in a Refrigerator, is a Must know even before you purchase any Animal Food Items. I purchased other items of yours, and kept them in my refrigerator. It still smelled fresh, and my Parrot […]

My Moluccan Cockatoo has right side heart failure. She’s weighed and gets 5 meds twice a day and I also palpitate her abdomen to get an idea if fluid is accumulating. She eats very well and once she reaches 800 grams her abdomen becomes firm I am unable to palpitate it as well. When her […]

Vega is six years old, very tame, and the only bird in the house. Since he was about 2.5 there has been consistent hormonal behaviour. This currently is not aggression but instead endless attempts to masturbate on things like curtains, pillows, towels. He is distracted away easily but will immediately return. The behaviour happens all […]
I have a male cockatiel who has great plummage, but he is constantly overgrooming/plucking his female mate. She does not correct him or get upset with him to get him to stop. They are both vet checked and otherwise healthy. Any suggestions to get it to stop. Separating them causes significant stress to the two […]
Two of my cockatiels have successfully bred and currently have six eggs in their nest. This is their first clutch, and they’re around 1-2 years old. After reading through other questions and answers, I’ve learned that it’s generally best to handle the chicks once they’re about 3 weeks old. The parents are doing well so […]

I just purchased a pair of canaries yesterday and the owner stated she believed her cat had pulled out the tail feathers on the male. He is molting as well. After bringing him home we noticed he is fluffed, breathing has increased and he tends to sit with his head cocked. They are currently in […]

My budgie/parakeet accidentally got on a mouse glue trap in the house. He has lost a lot of feathers including his tail. He is safely off the trap by the help of olive oil, we cleaned him as good as we can with dawn dish soap and he can still walk. How long will he […]

If my four month old budgie is bullying and behaving aggressively to my 8-month-old male budgie which happens almost daily, yet she regurgitates food and likes him to preen her, what does this mean? They live in separate very large cages and sometimes I take them out and they are fine and other times they […]

Hello, Our female budgie has mated with one of our males (we have three males). It looks like she is ready to give birth. We have a nesting box. Should we separate the pregnant budgie and her mate to a different cage until after the babies are born and out of the nesting box?
What is best for my female budgie? She is 3 months old and constantly harassed by displays of courtship by my 9-month-old male budgie. They are in a divided 61-in double cage and the male has been screeching every day to be at her. They regurgitate through the great but she often wants her own […]

My male green cheek conure has attacked my older female Indian Ringneck parrot and my male Jenday Conure multiple times. He has significantly injured the older female twice requiring veterinary care. I know he wants a mate and his best friend is an older parakeet with whom he shares a cage. He’s not bonded to […]
We have an emergency come up and we have to leave the bird for about five days. We have a finch. I know he is social, but we only have him and he’s been thriving for quite some time just alone.
I have had my female budgie for over five years, It wasn’t until the third year that she began producing eggs. An egg once a month, than it appeared that she was laying eggs on the holidays. Christmas Eve, New Years Eve, Easter, etc. Talk about timing. 🙂 When she is about to lay an […]
Hello Lafeber, I appreciate your website; it’s very helpful for me as a Quaker parrot owner. My 11-year-old Quaker parrot has laid 17 eggs this year, and I am quite worried because the last two eggs were soft. She is very active, has a good appetite, and is acting as usual, but I’m concerned that […]

My female cockatiel injured herself and lost her toenail, and suffered excessive blood loss. We took her to the vet once I was able to get transportation. The vet treated her wound, and put a cone of shame around her neck because she won’t stop picking on her wounds. I brought her home and now […]
Hello, I’ll try to keep this as short as I can. 2 years after I had my male cockatiel, I bought him a female cockatiel who was only a couple months old because I figured my male cockatiel was lonely. However, they didnt bond romantically like I imagined but they were good friends and stay […]
How should my parrot have water
I have two parakeets. A male and a female. Didn’t know that when I rescued them. They have been mating and about a half hour ago I noticed an egg in the bottom of the cage. I put a small basket in there with some soft cotton which I’m sure is strange to them and […]

I have a pair of lovebirds living in a fairly roomy cage, and I know it’s important to let them out regularly for exercise and mental stimulation. I have several plants, which I cover up as much as possible when I let the birds out. However, my female lovebird always finds a way to get […]
We have a 2-yr old male cockatiel from a pet store. When no one is home he has periods of running around the cage constantly contact calling. 1 week ago we got a new 4-month old male from a breeder thinking this might help give companionship. They’re in separate cages for now. When we have […]

My female budgie is around 5 years old, and recently it hasnt even been possible to get her out of her cage. I think its some kind of cage aggression, but its too much. We dont punish her for this. She has always been a little bitey, though it was never an actual problem. First, […]
