I have an outdoor aviary and saw my male parakeet feeding 4 day old baby finches in the nest Should I worry about the parakeet's behavior Finches aren't abandoned by parents?

Unless the parent finches are getting mad, you don't need to worry about it. It's common if you have a bird in the parrot family, such as a parakeet, it will feed the smaller birds. They will commonly imitate you in how they treat small birds. For example if you say "here buddy" when you feed your bird, it is possible it will feed smaller birds while imitating you saying "here buddy".Additionally parakeet food is bigger seeds, but still similar enough in nutritional value that finches can eat parakeet food and vice versa.It's the same thing as if you have a cockatiel and add a parakeet. The cockatiel will likely treat the parakeet like a pet or else a baby cockatiel.

Can you keep a cockatiel in a parakeet cage?

Parakeet cages are generally very small, so I wouldn't recommend it. A rule of thumb is that a bird must have a large enough cage to be able to fully spread his wings, and it must be deep enough so that the bird's tail isn't damaged. Unless the parakeet cage in question is fairly large, then it should be fine. Also remember that the smaller of a cage you buy for your cockatiel, the more out-of-cage time you should provide him.

What bird is good with a parakeet?

Parakeets like other parakeets. In the wild many birds are in one flock. I'd say your best bet is to get another Parakeet if you want it to get a different bird a cockatiel would be okay. age and sex matters and you need to get them at the same time or they fight because the old bird thinks it's his/her turf. If you already have a parakeet you should get another parakeet.


Can parakeets eat wild bird food?

Yes but only for a shot period of time, cockatiel food doesn't have the right kinds of nutrition a parakeet needs to function, also its much bigger and harder for the parakeet to eat it so it might cause weakness and lack of food to the parakeet, hope this is helpful to you!


What is the difference between a parrot and a parakeet?

Parakeets are a type of parrot. Parakeet refers to any species of small parrot with a long tapering tail. Some examples are budgerigars, conures, and ring-necked parakeets.A parakeet is a smaller version of a parrot with long tail feathers.


Why would your cockatiels attack your parakeet?

Maybe it's just: "I'm the boss! Get away!" I used to have parakeet and I have a cockatiel and an African Grey right now, my Grey attacks my cockatiel sometimes because he's a bigger bird. (The hunter is hunted!) Perhaps that's true for cockatiels and parakeets, since cockatiels are bigger than 'keets. Or maybe it's a breed thing. Check out the website below for cockatiels by a Mrs.Eleanor McCaffrey: In my opinion, it's very professional.
