I made this for all those beautiful cockatiels that get passed around constantly because people don't realize what they have when they have it... or simply just don't care. This is for you poor babies!

so true! thanks for posting

I loved my cockatiel so very much. When I bought my Amazon, I almost got another cockatiel instead. I just wanted the bigger bird. Cockatiels will always have a place in my heart and out of all the small parrots they are by far my favorite. Every time I see a picture of Tiki I get teary eyed. That was absolutely beautiful what you posted.

I really miss my tiels now...

Awe!!!!! So sweet!

I've had tiels in my life for almost 12 years now and I can't imagine not having at least one!

why dont the cockatiels have their own section? Makes em look like they are less important...

They are really a type of cockatoo, they can cross breed with their larger cousins.

so is there any specific reason why the cockatiel shares a section with budgies/parakeets?

Any way we could push for the cockatiel to get its own section?

Thats is so true. Thank you for posting. You just can't imagine the number of re-home cockatiels we get. All of them are deep down just so lovely, I can't imagine why so many people just throw them away. Its the best feeling when your able to re-home these lovely birds with loving new families.
