संक्षेप में

  • Cockatiels are social birds that bond with people; daily interaction matters.
  • They can be skittish; sudden movements and frightening sounds in the dark can cause panic flapping.
  • Vary the diet with pellets, seed, vegetables and greens.
  • Provide supervised flying time in a safe room.
  • Hand-taming should be patient and use small rewards.

The juvenile stage runs from hatching to about 1 year of age. Cockatiels go through their first moult, learn to fly and explore, and start forming strong bonds with their people.

What is happening in this stage?

  • The first moult happens and adult colors and patterns (depending on variety and sex) become clear.
  • Flying skill and balance develop.
  • Whistling, sounds and mimicry attempts may begin.
  • Trust and bonding are shaped now.

What should you do differently?

  • First days: Place the cage in a quiet corner where they can see people without too much traffic.
  • Night: A dim night light can help reduce panicked flapping in the dark.
  • Diet: Quality pellets and seed, plus fresh vegetables and greens daily; introduce new foods patiently.
  • Flying: Flying time in a safe room where you've checked windows, mirrors and hot surfaces.
  • Taming: Reward stepping onto a finger with small treats; keep sessions short.

What should you monitor?

  • Weight (weekly weighing)
  • Appetite and droppings
  • Feather condition and sitting fluffed up
  • Fear responses and night-time thrashing

Expected behavior

Raising and lowering the crest, practicing whistles, exploring everything with the beak and enjoying walking on the floor are normal at this stage.

Reminders

  • First veterinary check-up (with an avian-experienced vet)
  • Weekly weighing
  • Daily fresh water and clean dishes

Next stage

From about 1 year of age your cockatiel enters the adult stage.
