This is a very sad time. What to do next depends on different beliefs. Most people prefer to bury their beloved pets in the garden, much like how we bury people after they die.
If this is not what you want, veterinary practices offer to incinerate deceased pets for a small charge or alternatively, they can be placed in a bin.
If you have another pet that was close to the deceased pet, it is important to pay special attention as animals mourn just like people and can end up pining or becoming ill at the loss of their friend/mate. It is often best to introduce a new friend to stop the living pet becoming lonely or rehoming it somewhere where it can be with other birds.
Always take care when introducing a new pet, however, as it can sometimes go wrong and animals can reject each other, sometimes with quite violent consequences.
Try and comfort him/her...cockatiels and sometimes other birds are known to die after their mate does, so don't be surprised if your other little darling passes away, too.
You cannot. A female cockatiel needs a male cockatiel to mate with her before she will produce fertile eggs. And incidentally, birds do not "fall pregnant".
No the cockatiel should not be seperated from his or her mate after eggs have been laid. This should only occur if the male is aggressive to live and viable eggs. Visit cockatiel cottage for more info.
Cockatiels do not need anything to have a mate. Just put him/her in the cage with your cockatiel, however, if you want them to mate, they will not mate if you do not have a nesting box. In order to breed cockatiels, you will need a nesting box.
No way. They are both different species, and completely different sizes.
Well, they tried to anyhow. Probably. That's how they do it. if the male jumps on the females back they were trying but they got interupted by someone walking past them or coming to their cage.
well if your not home all of the time,your bird might get lonely. I think it would be a good idea.
remove her from the cage then remove egg
He's got a terrapin. He used to have a cockatiel, but it died.
This is usually a good sign which means it is happy and content. It can also be singing to another bird which it has chosen for a mate or singing for your attention and approval.
