Mitch, this is for Judy M.
If bird owners would train their birds to the Aviator Harness they can put their bird on a T Perch in their vehicle and the bird does not have to be caged I have an SUV and my blue & gold goes everywhere we go and loves it. (more…)
Scott S. inquires:
Hi – I actually have a birdie question.
We have a 2-year-old male Gray Cockatiel who has the worst case of “ouwie feathers” under his wings.
We can lift his wings and see a number of pin feathers that are causing some distress.
Question: what if anything can we do to help him out?
He’s fine otherwise, big beautiful boy and a best in class winner here in Florida last year.
Thank you in advance!
Sherry L. comments:
Yes, my birds are fed ‘chop’ (Arlo the grey, calls it ‘bobbity’) This is a new term for what I have done for 28+ years.
Chop is chopped veg, grains, and sometimes, a tiny bit of seed sprinkled on top or a bit of walnut, or something.
I used to cut the vegetables larger because Arlo was pretty accepting of lots of things, and I didn’t have a food processor.
I also (now) feed Arlo a pelleted diet, along with the chop.
She also gets a small amount of fruit, and sometimes about an inch square of chicken breast (baked) or some steamed scallop (yum).
Cheri S. asks:
I would like to try putting my 3 parakeets and cockatiels in the same cage.
What size cage should I use?
Also, what is a flight cage compared to a regular cage?
Hope you can help.
Mitch, that’s a great cheap Sunday funny…LOL 
When did you get Barney?
He’s BEAUTIFUL and so healthy-looking as are all of your other friendly feathered friends
Have a WONDERFUL Sunday!

Questions about a harness for My African Grey.
She is 30 and really wants to “go for a walk” whenever I take the dog.
She stands guard by the door and flaps her wings which she does whenever we put jackets on.

Our cockatiel, who we rescued from our tree outside about 5-6 yrs ago, passed away Thursday.
We have a 4 yr old cockatiel.
She was only 3 months old when we got her.
The question is should we get another cockatiel for a friend for the 4 yr old?

One of our two cockatiels passed today.
We have had a pair of males for 14 years and they were 4-6 years old when we got them.
Joey L asks:
My Cockatiel, Woody, turned 25 this year.
Is that good for a cockatiel and why do you think he is still going strong?
Allan D writes:
It seems to me that the PrevuePet Cockatiel Nest Box, like all the other nest boxes, has the opening for the bird located too high.
When the bird is inside it has to do a standing jump of about 5 inches to get out, in fact, I can’t quite imagine how the bird manages to get out.
