Do you live in an apartment or condominium? Are there children about? Are you on the go a lot or gone for extended periods of time? Do you have a limited pet budget? Do you like to be greeted and admired? If so, then the cockatiel could very well be just the pet for you and your family!Cockatiels are one of the most popular pets! They have continued to grow in popularity since the first Europeans returned home from Australia with these gentle endearing little birds, vying for this top pet bird position only with the parakeet and the canary. They are one of 52 species of parrot native to Australia, and are one of Australia's fastest flyers. Australians call them the "Quarrian". They have so many positive traits as a pet, it is hard to know which ones are the most important: low cost, hardy, clean, intelligent, gentle, inquisitive, playful, quiet, adaptable, undemanding, easily trained, easily bred, and the list goes on! They can often learn to talk, especially the males, and can easily be taught all kinds of tricks. One of our favorite cockatiels named "Frita " can whistle the entire theme from the show "Mayberry". Impressive! To learn more about Cockatiels and their needs visit:
