My cockatiel always wants out of her new bird cage and won’t eat from her food bowl?


Category: Cockateil Food Q&A


I’ve had my cockatiel for 7 years, and i love her so much! so i went and bought her a new, bigger cage with new perches and everything…she seems to always want to be out of it (more than when she was in her old cage) and hang out with me 24/7 lol. is this because she doesn’t like her new cage?
also…she’ll eat her calcium perch, millet spray, etc, but she won’t eat out of her seed cup. she’d even go to the bottom of the cage and eat her poo :( i showed her where it is and let her watch me pour seeds in it, but she still won’t eat out of it. it’s so weird (and i can tell she’s really hungry!) i’m not sure if she still can’t find it or what but cockatiels are intelligent.
i don’t know if she just needs time to adjust or…?
thanks!

    Yeah, she needs time to adjust.
