| Of course,
cockatiels eat the seeds you can find for them in the
shops. They need water as well (changed everyday), vegetables (salads, cabbages, potatoes, radishes, cucumbers, carrots…) and fruits (apples, bananas, strawberries, raisins…) |

But they can
also eat with you: everything that is good for you is
good for them. You can let them have meat (free
cockatiels find proteins in small insects or worms), or
even spaghettis, pizzas, and they sometimes end up in the
rice salad dish! However, they should never have coffee (although they like it a lot), fat or sugar, and of course, absolutely never alcohol. |
In addition of food, cockatiels need calcium (for example, a cuttlebone), and sometimes vitamins (especially if you notice they are loosing their feathers).
They also love millet sprays or the titbits for cockatiels you can find in shops, and you can give them as a reward if they try to talk.
