How Can I Help My Cockatiel’s Broken Wing Heal? Will it ever heal so he can fly again?
NOTE:Â We do not advocate being your own avian vet except for emergencies when you cannot get the care you need.
If you can see the break you can use 2 very small cable ties and a coffee stir stick or cocktail straw as a splint to restrain the wing then introduce the sock (below).
If it’s a fracture go straight to the sock.

We are very sorry to hear your bird may be ill.
Of course, timing is often not right and our pets health issues may come at the wrong times.
This is beyond our experience and knowledge.
Yes, a trip to your Vet is the way to go. (more…)

Hello.
I came across the story about your cockatiel Popcorn.
I am going through the exact same thing with my cockatiel.
Can you tell me the outcome?
I know it is likely grim.
Thank you, Cynthia and Bindi
Dear Mitch I wanted to ask for your advice.
My male cockatiel is pulling his feathers out from under his wings.
I brought him to one avian vet who did blood work.
That was a dead end.
The 2nd vet sent droppings to a lab and that was negative.

Hello Mitch,
Here’s my problem
Pikachu the cockatiel will not relieve himself in his cage.
He is usually out with us when we are home, and even insists on sleeping on me; but if we need to go out, he is caged for his safety.
This ‘syndrome’ as vets are calling it, is referred to by many names as listed in the title of this article. For simplicity I will use the word Lockjaw.
First off, I would like to state that the following is from my own independent research while helping others and my own hands on personal experience.
I would also like to state upfront that I never bought into and was very skeptical on it being labeled Bordetella or B. Avium.
There is no singular cockatiel related to the title of this post. Aside from providing expert advice to caged bird keepers I also have a passion for Search Engine Optimization as well as improving how I communicate our ideas. Apparently, I am the vortex of a digitally feathered world.
In this post we have grouped together information requests specifically about cockatoo parrots.

This post about cockatoos (we found 44 cockatoo species listed at the bottom of this post)Â and serves as a counterpoint to the 43 species of macaw parrots we discussed last week.
We found a mere 12 cockatiel mutations.
