Almost everything has a baby. First,they have a egg, then it hatches and so on and so on.Sometimes there is no baby but you must make sure before doing enything!

I think you maybe confused between the 2 words and don't realise they are 2 different birds. A cockatiel is a smaller species of cockatoo but both cockatiels and cockatoos have their own male and female. A cockatiel is not a word that means one sex it is a type of bird.

Parakeets do lay eggs. I have 2 parakeets, but the eggs laid by the female have never lived long enough to hatch (if they do at all). MY parakeets will not stop reproducing, apparently my "plant lights" I have on them when they are awake, is a sign that it is time to reproduce! They multiply like crazy! I have to take, lets see this last time, 9+6+3 eggs and remove them, I don't need anymore babies. I have enough! ah,,something like 20 of them. so yes, they lay eggs and if they are intimate with a male who is devoted to her, they will reproduce as long as their is a nesting box that they can have access too! It is exciting to see the babies hatch and the mother feeds them until they get their feathers then the Father kicks in and he feeds them and takes care of them. On occasion, I have found dead babies and cold eggs in the nesting box. I don't know who did it but some bird killed them and the mother is very angry and biting the heck out of her nesting box. I did catch a mating couple that I took their nesting box away, ah, please! no more babies as cute as they are. They attacked one of my females to gain access to her nesting box, they tried to kill her. But I was right there and stopped it. Removed nesting box and now everybody in the bird world seems to be happy. I love their singing, but sometimes they are way too happy an drive me crazy with the chatter and singing that they do all at once. very loud!! but happy

Cockatoos and cockatiels are both types of parrots, and both native to Australia. They are quite different species, however. Most types of cockatoo are larger than cockatiels. Also, there are many species of cockatoos, but a cockatiel is a cockatiel, and there is just one species.

Cockatiels are known to lay eggs without a male sperm. This can be caused by if the bird is very attached to it's owner and has a good suppliment of food, lots of clean and fresh water, has a spot to lay eggs, and has corners of the cage that are in the dark. But it is very rare that a cockatiel would lay a fertile egg. If this happens talk to your vet immediatly because the behavior in all cockatiels after the chick has hatched can vary. And also keep in mind that the mother might neglect the chick so you must care for it or it will die. Hope this helped! :))

The cockatiel lays eggs and incubates them (sits). There are from 4 to 7 eggs laid a day or two apart and they will hatch in 18 to 22 days.
