The Crested Cockatiel on an Outdoor Patio

Cockatiels are small, friendly parrots known for the distinctive feathered crest atop their heads. Setting up climbing structures like bamboo ladders on a patio provides these curious birds with physical exercise and fresh air.

Distinctive Features of Cockatiels

Originating from the arid regions of inland Australia, cockatiels use their crests to express their emotional state. A fully raised crest signals excitement or curiosity, while a flattened crest means the bird feels threatened. Unlike many larger parrots, cockatiels travel in large nomadic flocks searching for seed sources across open plains.

Real Colors of a Cockatiel

  • Feathers: Soft gray body with white patches on the wings
  • Crest and head: Pale yellow with bright orange circular cheek patches
  • Bamboo ladder: Natural golden tan or pale yellowish brown
  • Beak and feet: Light pinkish gray
