Yes, cockatiels can potentially transmit diseases to humans, although the risk is generally low. They can carry pathogens like psittacosis, which is a bacterial infection that can be transmitted through droppings or respiratory secretions. Regular cleaning of their environment and good hygiene practices, such as washing hands after handling, can help minimize any health risks. If you experience symptoms after contact, it's advisable to consult a healthcare professional.
