I have a cockatiel that has flown against his cage so much he is bleeding. What do i do to stop this?

Question by CrazyMagoo: I have a cockatiel that has flown against his cage so much he is bleeding. What do i do to stop this?
My bird, Spike, is a really neat bird. Unfortunately, lately he has done something he has never done before. He randomly gets spooked by something. He has done it twice now, and i thought that maybe the first time he was just really scared by something, and he didn’t bleed much… just some on the tip of his wing. He did it again today, and he hadn’t done it for a few weeks, so i thought he was over it. He was bleeding so much at the time that he got quite a lot on the cage. He has stopped bleeding, and he is alert and calm now, and it doesn’t look like he is in shock. Any ideas? Does he need a bigger cage? Should we clip his wings more often? we ha vent done it for a long time. If anyone has any ideas, please tell me… i fear my bird is being hurt for something i can fix.
We do not know his age, he is definatly over 2 or 3 years of age.

I would recommend a blanket or towel to drape over the cage to help calm him the next time it happens.

What does cage size matter for parrots?

Question by miatatine: What does cage size matter for parrots?
Once upon a time I had a cockatiel, but now I am considering a lovebird. Would it be ok to keep a lovebird in a larger cage? What happens if you keep any kind of parrot in a larger size cage?

Best answer:

Answer by Nico
A cage for a cockatiel is the right size for a lovebird. It should be perfect!

If you keep a parrot in a cage too large for them they become insecure which manifest as behaviour issues. (skitterish, fearful, etc.)

A cage that is too small is also unhealthy for a bird.

My cockatiel is 19 and has become cage bound. Is this normal behaviour?

Question by Maree Pearson: My cockatiel is 19 and has become cage bound. Is this normal behaviour?
For the first few years of his life, he was always out and after leaving him with my parents to go overseas, he stayed in his cage and wont let me even pat him. He lives in a big cage and I move him around all day for comfort ie: I follow the sun around outside all day, then inside at night and even in the warm loungeroom in cold weather. I leave the cage door open all the time whilst he is in the house but he onle comes out about once every 2 months. It saddens me and would he be better off with a breeder or other birds? Needless to say he still sings and seems happy.

Best answer:

Answer by Alice
He’s prolly just getting older and just trying to relax more. A lot of animals get cranky as they age. No, he wouldn’t be a good breeder bird because of his age. I think it would be too hard on him. But maybe you could get him another bird friend. If the cage is big enough for 2 tiels, maybe you should get another one to keep him company in there? And another younger tiel might actually encourage him to want to come out of the cage more since the younger one will love coming out of the cage itself.

Other than that, just keep loving him. Talk to him outside his cage, if he doesn’t want to be pet then just leave him be. Always leave the door open though so if he wants to come out he can
