    There are several reasons why cockatiels may look up:

    1.Vitamin B deficiency: When a parrot is deficient in B vitamins, it may cause a head tremor, which can cause the head to be tilted all the time. At this point, it can be fed some B vitamins and medicated**.

    2.Stargazing: Parrots with stargazing may have symptoms of keeping their heads up.

    This condition is usually caused by nerve damage and may be due to a lack of B vitamins or other nutritional problems. To combat this, the parrot can be given vitamin B supplements and measures can be taken to prevent it from continuing to raise its head.

    3.Newcastle disease: Parrots with Newcastle disease may show symptoms such as head tremors and tilted heads.

    This is due to neurological symptoms caused by a viral infection. At this point, aggressive measures such as screening for possible sources of infection and using antiviral drugs are required.

    Please note that the above reasons are not necessarily the cause of a cockatiel to look up, and if your parrot is showing symptoms of looking up, it is recommended to take it to a veterinarian for a check-up as soon as possible.

    That's looking up.

    It is normal to look up during the day, many birds have, if it is really sleeping with the mouth up, this is the unique sleeping action of your bird, which can be said to be abnormal. But I guess it certainly won't affect its health.

    On the other hand, "wonder is beautiful", because this is the unique sleeping position of your bird, and I suspect that it may be unique in the world, then it is very valuable, you can take a picture of it and post it on the Internet for everyone to see, it will be famous. Strange good birds. Hehe.

    1. You can tease it casually, it will not dodge, it will not bite you and hurt you, it will also sing, and sleep on one foot: this means that the bird feels comfortable with its environment and has a sense of security. Secure birds sleep with one foot raised and tucked up in their belly, and their head turned to the side in their back feathers.

    2. If the bird ruminates in the presence of someone or in close proximity to humans, it usually means that he has taken you as a mate and wants to feed you! The bird will also do this to his favorite toy or other object.

    3. Birds with intimate relationships express their enthusiasm for each other by feeding each other, and ruminant food is the way to achieve this. This action involves bobbing the head up and down, bringing the food up from the stomach, and then placing it in the opponent's final. This is also the method used by both parents when feeding chicks.

    There is a high probability of an avian chlamydia infection.

    Chlamydia avianium, also known as psittacosis and ornithium, is an acute or chronic infectious disease caused by Chlamydia psittaci. The disease is mainly characterized by respiratory and digestive tract lesions, which not only infect poultry and birds, but also endanger human health and bring serious harm to public health.

    Sick birds (birds) develop respiratory tract lesions, the body becomes trembling, ataxia, cachexia, loss of appetite and discharge of green watery intestinal contents, serous or purulent discharge around the eyes and nostrils.

    In layman's terms, birds often shed tears, tears dry to form eye mug substances, serious will stick to the eyelids, so that the bird (bird) eyes can not open, your parrot is likely to get this disease, the reason is poor management, malnutrition, rainy, sudden temperature changes, humid environment, poor ventilation and other stress factors, it may also be the original pathogen, when the parrot is poor, it is also possible that it was later infected by other birds.

    It is recommended to take disposal measures to disinfect the living environment of parrots with 2 formaldehyde solution, 2% bleach powder or Xinjieer spray (in fact, disinfectant water), and pay attention to their own preventive measures (this disease mainly relies on airborne transmission, masks are necessary, parrots should be strictly washed after cleaning and touching, and it is recommended to isolate from birds if there are children), this disease is harmful to people.

    Tetracycline, oxytetracycline, chlortetracycline three categories have a good effect on the disease, these are the main ingredients of the drug antibiotic name, as for the name of the drug of different manufacturers The name of the drug is not necessarily, you can go to the pharmacy to ask yourself. These drugs are divided into veterinary and human use, as long as you can use them, you can use either of the two, it is recommended to choose people to use...

    Here I remind you of the ** method I will take, you can buy tetracycline eye drops + oxytetracycline oral medicine, eye drops to bird eye drops nasal drops, oxytetracycline oral, and put a certain amount of drinking water, the two-pronged effect will be better. Finally, while giving medicine to birds, please you and your family also take appropriate drugs to prevent, people may not get sick, but it will be poisonous, resulting in your parrot may repeatedly be infected from people and bacteria and reverse the possibility of disease, so people should also completely kill a bacterium.

    Finally, if my judgment is correct, according to the above points, it should not be a big problem and can be cured quickly.

    The point is that I didn't see the actual situation, but I just made a rough judgment based on your description... You can check psittacosis and avian chlamydia infection on the Internet by yourself, make your own judgment, I hope it can help you, I wish you a good bird **.

    That's how the cockatiel's head <>

    That's fine, isn't it?

    Take a look first. Sometimes parrots look at people like that.

    You can observe it first, if it doesn't work, you can go to the pet hospital to consult the parrot before, when it looks at people, it is also biased to the head.

    I didn't have it before, but that's it today, and it's been half a month since I bought it back.

    You can observe it again, because with a parrot, there will indeed be a situation where he tilts his head to look at you, what should he do if he is going to be like this all the time?

    Well, if this is always the case, you can try to go to the pet hospital to have a look, or consult that kind of professional, to see if you can get vitamin B one.

    This is where baldness occurs. The phenomenon of bald scoop is relatively common for cockatiels, and there are two kinds of bald scoops that appear conventionally, one is congenital and one is acquired.

    1. The congenital factor is because it belongs to the Sunflower family, and the product itself has the probability of carrying the possibility of feather capsule fistula, for the sunflower family, this problem is a congenital genetic defect, and has a high heritability, and it is difficult to change this kind of bald scoop the day after tomorrow. In the process of artificial breeding of ordinary mating lines, there is basically no way to change the situation of this kind of dull hair baldness.

    2. Another situation is acquired because of the lack of trace elements and calcium food caused by pecking and dysplasia, this situation is relatively easy to solve, more calcium food and trace elements can be supplemented, the demand for calcium food is very high, a dull hair under normal circumstances needs to consume a pair of cuttlefish bones is more than 3 times that of a pair of tiger skin.

    Raising cockatiels is a matter of note.

    Since the cockatiel is larger in size and beak than the peony parrot, and it likes to nibble on woody things, it is recommended that you choose a slightly larger metal birdcage when choosing a birdcage.

    Although cockatiels have good physique, they still need to supplement calcium, so bone meal is a necessity. It is still sensitive to changes in heat and cold, and in summer, you can feed more fruits and vegetables in moderation to reduce its anger.

    You can prepare a manure tray for it and put it at the bottom of the cage, and spread an appropriate amount of fine sand in the dish, so that it is not convenient for it to peck at food, and it is also convenient for Lu Sleepy to clean up its feces and garbage. Its character is relatively docile, if you are afraid that it will be lonely, you can also consider mixing with other birds, such as pearl finches, plum finches, etc. are good choices.

Look at the wing feathers.
