I too am considered a "crazy bird lady" by my family and friends. I only have one little man right now, a 15 year old male Cockatiel. But it's my dream to have a flock.. I always get excited when I see birds in the wild. I live in Australia and we have very very many wild parrots in my area, including a King parrot like Kingsley, who is wild but is an expert at begging snacks from local houses. He recently found a mate who he brings around, she hides shyly in a nearby tree.

I loved your "wacky wood", so I went looking for it here in STL MO. I found it in the reptile accessories. They call it a root here in the states. Your bird room is great! I want to redo the walls in my bird room similar to yours. I think we are going to paint local trees on the wall; easier for us. There are 20 parakeets and 4 cockatiels on the regular in the room. Sometimes the pigeons (5 counting the 4 days old hatched baby), another cockatiel and a conure hang out in there (my spoiled birbs that free fly the house). My 4 chickens go in to "clean" the floor. The little birds are messy and waste food. The pigeons and chickens eat the perfectly good food off the floor. I'm glad to have ground feeders. I have a recently adopted Goffins cockatoo, Peach. She is a dream.

Kingsley is so cute 🥰🥰🥰 what a beautiful parrot! Also I need to get a heated bird bath, seeing the female cardinal enjoy it made me realize I’m missing out! Or rather- my backyard bird friends are missing out! I’m great at spotting birds myself, well mostly just cardinals, I can tell by their chirps and I know the kinds of spots they like to be in. People are always shocked when I point out a cardinal that’s so far away lol. I should point out your amazing talent for spotting birds has saved several lost budgies 😊 I still am always on the lookout for lost birds ever since I saw that video. I haven’t seen any yet, but I would be so happy to return someone’s bird to them. It’s awesome to be a crazy bird nerd 😆

We 17 birds inside. Eight Cockatiels and three Bourkes in a room. Four Budgies in a smaller sun but they do visit the Cockatiel room. They all sometimes fly through the house under supervision. We have an Eclectic Parrot and Quaker parrot in our living room. The Bourkes love to escape the Cockatiel room and fly free. The budgies love to visit the cockatiels and Bourkes but can become a bit boisterous and bossie

Hi, love your bird room, I too leave my birds out every day I have four live birds for parakeets and two cockatiels and two of my parakeets, and all four of my lovebirds are not returning to their cages at dinner time, which they have in the past how do you get your birds back in their cages ,hanging millet sometimes works but not lately, any suggestions you’re so sweet thank you
@Loveofpets9 ай бұрын
Hi, I use spray millet to get them back in the cage. I make sure to get them in the cage before they roost, otherwise they won't go in. Also I don't provide any seed out of the cage. I provide fresh foods and pellets while they are out. They can go into the flight cages to eat a bit of seed but it's not much as the birds ate it the night before so they eat the leftovers. I open the doors when I want them in and refresh pellets, seeds and spray millet and usually they go in. Sometimes they won't go in so I dim the lights, close the curtains to que them that it's bedtime. I use the word bedtime each night so they know its time to go in the cage. I also have a long bird ladder that I will use to guide them in with. Some step up on the ladder which helps. Hope this helps.
@HarleyQ56909 ай бұрын
Yes, very helpful. It just dawned on me that I’m still trying to wean my cockatiels off of seed and mix in with their fresh food in the mornings and I think my lovebirds are actually boycotting me because they want their seed so maybe I’ll add their seed in with their pellets at night, maybe that’ll help me. Thank you so much. You really inspired me how to take care of my birds I appreciate it. Thank you again. I’m just worried that they won’t eat their pallets if I give them seed.
@Loveofpets9 ай бұрын
Your welcome. I wouldn't worry to much if they don't eat their pellets. As long as they are eating various fresh foods and sprouted seeds, grains and legumes, they can have a bit of seed. Try different brands of pellets to see which ones they like.

Hi Donna, need advice for bird choice. Have had several cockateils 1 at a time over the years, currently birdless. Have decided I cannot have another cockateil due to issues you and I know about. What would be your next choice for a personable bird buddy ? Cannot be large and cannot be a budgie.
@firstsecond31269 ай бұрын
What’s wrong with having a budgie ? … hope you don’t mind my asking
@Loveofpets9 ай бұрын
Hi, its hard for me to choose a bird without knowing more details. It depends on what you want in a bird. Do you want a bird that can be cuddly or a more independent? What noise level can you deal with and activity wise? Conures can be cuddly but are prone to nipping and may not be cuddly or want to be touched as all birds are individuals. Bourke Parakeets are nice and quiet birds, however they do not like to be touched and don't necessarily play with toys and can be docile during the day. They are most active in the mornings and evenings. Finches and Canaries are more independent and have beautiful songs. Kakarikis are quick, funny and very active birds Howe they don't like to be touched very much. Linnies are a nice small bird, however they have very large and wet droppings and a loud contact call and can be phobic at times. Parrotlets can make a nice pet especially if its the only pet as they can be aggressive to other birds. They have cute quiet sounds and can be trained to do tricks and can be cuddly. Lovebirds are similar. Hope this helps.

Hello, you have a nice channel and I like to watch it from time to time, what are your experiences with social finch and gouldian finch, have you grown them and recommendations. Do you think a nymph or a budgie is better? I'm a bit scared by the demandingness of the nymph and some very bad sound I heard in the pet store. Is a nymph or a budgie better for a pet? Suggest some birds that could be left unattended from Friday evening to Sunday evening alone in the house, thanks and regards.
