Re: New cockatiel
they love any toys with bells on or mirrors, the rope types with little blocks, links joined together, swings are another favorite, u can find toys online
did he come from an aviary before hun? it sounds like he is used to birdy company and gets excited when he hears them , generally they live with other birdies in the wild anyway which is why they are better in pairs , no matter how hard u try u cant be a bird that they associate with and watching them interact with each other is so funny, theyre little wind up merchants lol, his getting hy[per is probably excitement
they can be noisy yes!! a few of mine actually talk and go on and on with hello pretty birdie etc but i raised them myself so they have got used to voices from a very young age, then they try and compete with each other lol
if u cant get toys locally u might be able to get them online , where u can buy them and then have them posted to u, i have a few in my shop for smaller birdies if u want to take a look , otherwise ebay or similar, you can also have fun making your own - they will chew toilet roll middles
