Jackie is a bit wary of people, but she has a good reason to be! She was found abandoned in a cardboard box outside. After a stay at the avian vet to recover from her cardboard box ordeal, Jackie is learning how to relax in her foster home.
Jackie is an easygoing bird. She enjoys spending the day sitting on top of her cage, nibbling toys, eating Nutrian cakes, and being misted. She is quiet about 98% of the day, with a few loud bursts of cockatiel squawks. Jackie will eat millet seeds off the tip of her foster mom`s finger and will step up when she needs help, so she will likely be able to regain her trust in people with a calm and patient home.
If you are looking for a bird to keep you company but who doesn`t demand a lot of attention, Jackie might be a good match for you!
In nature, cockatiels live in large flocks. A single bird in a cage spends much of his/her life being lonely because humans have things they must do that take them away. We therefore will only adopt a single cockatiel to a household if there is already at least one cockatiel living there. Otherwise, cockatiels must be adopted in groups of two or more.
