What do you think of the male and female of cockatiels? How do cockatiels look at male and female

Look at the wing feathers.

Generally, they are not able to distinguish when they are young, at this time because they are all chicks and their feather color is relatively similar, so the feather color is basically indistinguishable, so half of the cockatiels in the six to nine months of age, they will replace a batch of new feathers out, at this time the difference in the feather color of the male and female cockatiels is relatively large, and it is hotter and easier to identify at this time.

Known as the cockatiel in Hong Kong and Taiwan, it is one of the most common medium-sized parrots in the world. Wild populations are native to Australia, and their large breeding numbers make them quite common, and hand-raised young birds are very active and like to be close to their owners.

Cockatiels can be distinguished by looking at body color, looking at their faces, and listening to their voices.

1. Observe body color.

For cockatiels with obvious appearance, they can be distinguished by body color, the body color is more white for males, and the body color is more yellow for females, when the appearance is not obvious, then observe the spots on the wings of the cockatiel, the female bird with spots on the wings, and the male bird with no spots on the wings.

2. Observe the face.

For the primitive gray cockatiel, the male and female are generally distinguished by the appearance of the face, the yellow face is the male, and the gray person with the chain face is mostly the female, and the male looks like a mighty and domineering hero, the eyes and mouth are far away from Jianxi, and the female looks sweet and thin.

3. Listen to the sound.

The male cockatiel's call is crisp and powerful, the voice is very high-pitched, and the penetrating power is very strong, there is no murmur, and the female cockatiel's call is sweet and lovely, mostly with a bit of noise, and slightly muffled, not harsh.

Cockatiel's care

Due to the nature of cockatoos to bite, the cage and the furnishings in the cage should be made of stainless steel or safety materials, which can reduce the metal poisoning caused by accidental ingestion, and it is best to breed a pair of male and female birds of the same species and get along well in a cage.

Owners should feed cockatoos a certain amount of fresh vegetables, fruits, grains, nuts every day, and give probiotics and vitamins and minerals to the birds at the right time to ensure the bird's health. Chicks and young birds whose feathers have not yet grown can choose the corresponding bird milk powder and feed according to different breeds and growth stages, and soak them in clean and warm water between 38 and 40 degrees Celsius before feeding.

Birds in the wild have a habit of washing and cleaning, they will swing their bodies on the sand pile or water, let the sand or water shower on their bodies, and then dry their feathers through sunlight, and human-bred cockatoos can use tap water or special bath powder to make the birds clean their bodies spontaneously.
