Cockatiel Socialization

Socialization is crucial for a cockatiel’s mental and emotional health. They are naturally social creatures that thrive on interaction with their human caregivers and other birds. To socialize your cockatiel, spend time talking, playing, and training with them daily. Allow them to interact with other family members and, if possible, other birds. This helps them develop trust and reduces the likelihood of behavioral issues such as screaming or biting. Regular socialization also helps in making your cockatiel more adaptable and less fearful of new situations and environments.
