Easy to Train: The Friendly Australian Cockatoo for Your Home
I have heard a lot about the song “RedCrestCockatoo”, but he did not have the good fortune to see the red Crest.
However, the crested Australian cockatoo or cockatiel which is well known as cockatiel is easily available in our country.
Now the caged cocktail as a cage bird or amateur bird is popular all over the world including our country!
They are easy to pet, they can even imitate many words!
Although very popular among us, the nature or characteristics of the bird are not known anywhere.
So for the fancy bird breeders, I have tried to highlight the body language features of the cocktail in a simple way-
Raising the neck and staring: This cockatoo suddenly becomes surprised or excited by a word, and pays attention to that source!
If the bird gets angry, its eyes will become as big as possible and it will want to bite.
Besides, at this time all the feathers of his body are scroll and make the body skinny.Even the beautiful crest of the head is covered.
Head-to-toe shaking: Babies do more when they are young or have just learned to eat.
This means they are hungry or want to eat from you.Adult bird means he wants to draw your attention!
Chest bloating: This is mainly a feature of male cocktails.At this point the bird spreads its two wings slightly
(looks like a profit symbol when viewed from behind).This is done while showing off, bragging.
It is often seen to do so even when there is too much joy!
Bow your head and keep it that way: Be proud, your bird trusts you with its life!
And he wants you to caress him with your hands on his head and neck.
Breaking the knees and keeping the wings half-matched (often leaning slightly forward at the same time):
If your bird has a chain on its legs, open it, it wants to fly away.And if there is no chain,
then he is still not completely confident about his target!
The two wings fit perfectly: They want to assert their rights (property ownership).
Stumbling head down on a hard object: Mainly a male cocktail does this (many times he may seem to be rubbing his beak).
I mean, this thing / area is mine!If you tapping in front of him with your fingers at this time, then your fight will start with him!
Walk back and forth very quickly: often at the same time calling out in a slightly softer tone.
This means he is anxious for something!If you want to get a tame bird out of the cage, it will see you.
Touching the lip before lifting the finger: It may seem like he is going to bite,
but he is actually testing how reliable or strong he is going to stand!And before lifting his fingers,
he lifted one foot with some balance on his lips.
Seeing with one eye up or down with the neck bent: The bird leans to one side of the neck and concentrates
on a specific target, because of the position of its eyes it actually has to look like this!
Rubbing your face, chest and lips up and down: You may be scared or annoyed, but the bird is actually caressing you!
Gently rubbing the anus with something: Both males and females are seen to do so in adulthood,
which means that mating (mating) needs are created!
Laying on the back of the head: A restful sleep for a healthy bird (if you suddenly feel cold depending on the weather).
And for the sick birds, forget all the rest / sleep in the state!
Shake your head very quickly: First, when eating as a child, which means the food is great.At this time he sounded happy.
Second, if you hear a high-pitched sharp uncomfortable sound or a melodious melody in a loud voice!
(You can listen to Michael Jackson’s Beat it)
Repeatedly rubbing the head (rolly head) on the back: Sometimes if you do not get an itchy caress from your partner or you,
you can say that it is his own responsibility or part of the cleaning work!But it is scary
if you see birds doing this frequently and with unusual speed.Her central nervous system is infected with a type of virus !!
Sleep with one foot: very happy!Your bird is 100% fit !!Leaning on one leg, the other leg is kept a little relaxed.
Cuddling / Closing One Eye Closed One Eye Opened: Usually one eye is closed towards you but the other is kept open.
Securely or confidently close your eyes and rest on the other side of surveillance!
Swelling of the body: It is normal to keep the body slightly swollen while caressing, but if the bird is swollen like this for
a long time / the body is swollen and the mouth is closed / the body is swollen and sitting under the cage, then the bird is sick!
Grinding two-lipped lips: Seeing and hearing the word ‘tarche’, it is clear that the bird is grinding two-lipped lips (Grinding).
This means that he is satisfied with all the food and drink, now he is in a relaxing mood!Then maybe he can take a short or long nap
with his eyes closed.
The feathers on the face and ears are slightly swollen: he has heard something funny or he wants to hear what he has heard!
(Many cocktail breeders believe that the words that the bird hears will be easily imitated later!)
Repeated Ha / Hai: At the end of the cleaning work and many other times the bird is seen to be like ha ha.
It’s actually readjusting his jaw and crop!
A few sneezes on the nose and hair: they poke your nose like mine and they clear the airways!
Raising the two wings together on the back: they try to break the paradigm like this!
Or one fan pulls one leg back and tries to break the paradigm.
