Did you know that cockatiels need sunlight?
Sunlight is extremely important for cockatiels.
On warm days you and your cockatiel can profit from real sunlight. The natural ultraviolet rays are important for activating vitamin D production and calcium absorption and for stimulating reproduction.
Make sure your cockatiel is supervised in a secure cage when you are outside (sit with your cockatiel); otherwise, a wandering cat could make a meal of your bird. Some shade and plenty of water should be provided. When you subscribe to cockatiel.com you will be able to access important cockatiel health issues, twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week.
