3 Different Reactions when cockatiels being washed in summer 

Thanks so much for letting me know!

Or just before their beak get the water just on the back of like their head towards blowing away from the beach so they can breathe do that with my cockatiel

So you mean to tell me that when it rains, birds "can't breath" when the water falls directly onto their beaks? I will have to disagree with that statement. You can clearly tell that Ana enjoyed the shower. She would have flown out of the shower if she didn't...

@@ChildofYAH Birds tend to hide away from the rain though.

@@ChildofYAH do some research before you say things that could miss informe people please… she can’t breathe

Nooo she’s struggling to breathe when she tilts her head up like that. Always shower your tiel with mist or sprinkles, never directly. :)

She's suffocating :( don't direct the water straight to her face

Menschen treiben mit ihren riesigen Pratzen alles mögliche mit den kleinen zarten Vögeln, die sich sowieso nicht wehren können.

yeah i noticed this with my own cockatiel.

Actually they do that to rinse their mouths out. If they were having problems breathing they would move their body or head.

Just don’t use shower pressure either way. Way too strong for them and unnecessary

@@downhomesunset Not true. "Why do birds often struggle to get out of their cages when left open, despite having been taken out many times and knowing where the door is? I can't really say. Some birds DO get out from under streams falling directly onto them, some stand here and mouth breathe like Ana did. I've seen it enough times to know, but if you'd like more of an indicator aside from the mouth-breathing she also is providing NO bathing reaction at all. Perhaps its a lack of knowledge on where to move, not knowing where the stream ends. Perhaps its an expectation that if its raining, no matter where she moves the water will be there. Despite being wickedly smart, cockatiels aren't very well known for thinking on their feet. They tend to panic or freeze up faced with situations that are overwhelming. That's a pretty heavy stream to them (cockatiels are very small and light) so I could understand the freezing. If you'd like to know the logistics, their nostrils are on top of their beaks so heavy rain falling directly onto them from the top forces its way into open nostrils. That is already very unpleasant, but parrot lungs are also a one-circuit track, they have to breathe twice to get everything out. "There is a one way flow of air in their lungs...thus the lungs receive fresh air during inhalation and again during exhalation In the bird's respiratory system, air first flows through air sacs that direct fresh, oxygenated air into the lungs where gas exchange occurs, both when the bird inhales and when it exhales." When something gets in there, it takes a while to get fully out- including water. This renders it dangerous if the bird were to actually breathe any in, unlike us where we could simply try and cough it out. Rain often falls at an angle, and birds have places to take shelter in severe weather. You often see birds bathing in a nice rain, but I've NEVER seen a bird bathe in an absolute torrent, which a showerhead shooting water directly onto a bird is much the equivalent to in force- however even torrents are still typically blown angled by the wind. The summary answer to your question is likely panic. Fight/Flight/Freeze, tiels tend to choose flight or freeze."

@@ShaynaFlowers Thanks so much for this information, my tiels don't take showers, I use a hand spray battery operated , on a very light mode, sprinkle but I was spraying on top but from now on we will try at an angle, such precious little birds! thanks

🙏🥺👍🖕

Precious 💞 My Tiel named Mr Baby Woodstock McCoo is so sweet any cute and precious! A True gift of God.

You know he is sofucating like that? He cant breath when water is sprayed this way

That is NOT how you bathe a bird...

Birds bathe themselves. Just put some water in your sink and let them do their thing

@@LaraCroft36 I've rinsed a cockatiel that got herself covered in butterscotch pudding once, but yeah, they generally clean themselves when given the opportunity :)

@@daviddou1408 a sweater on a dog when it's chilly out is fine, but I agree that cats really shouldn't wear "clothing". Personally I don't see anything wrong with showering birds as long as it's only once in a while and not a regular thing. Much like hamsters they should always have access to a bathing area too. I'm my opinion both the video and the comment are right.

@@lilysat09 i

a domesticated bird doesnt have an instinct to fly away due to danger, because it knows that here's no danger in the house

Yeah cause it never rains in nature.

What

Es verdad. Gracias.

Dude stop theyre okay with that don't comment such things!

@@slumbersdoom8650 well yes if u do it late in the afternoon and they dont have enough time to dry off and may end up sick in some way

Ha ha!

You should not sure a hair dryer on birds. It can dry out their skin and has Teflon which can kill birds. I used to use a hair dryer on mine until my vet informed me not to.

wet piece of lettuce😂

@@V.Hansen. I really don’t think that your lil cutie was struggling to breath…in fact I’m not an expert, nor a vet. But it was interesting watching this video.! I do suppose that there are a bunch of know it alls that figure they know what’s best for your bird. However this video might prove to be detrimental for newer bird owners in that they might try this and hurt their bird by squeezing it too much. So I recommend that you put a disclaimer message that shows up automatically on the very bottom of your video that states a warning like? In the making of this video my bird was not harmed nor traumatized in any way, for any bird that doesn’t like this would squack so loudly you would see it, and it wouldn’t sit so comfortably on the stick for it would be trying desperately trying to get away.

near sunshine (not too hot) or warmth.

This is the way. Don’t shower them. Let them bathe themselves how they want!

I am a cockatiel owner and I agree with your point but the level of cleaning humans provide to birds is a lot more than how much they get cleaned when they take a bath (its useless unless the bird ain't dirty already)

Es verdad. They need a little bird tub not this

Thank you :) your comment helps a lot!

im subbed bc i love the birds but idk, ive had cockatiels for a decade and this just upsets me a bit, nothing super dangerous but a lot of mistakes

Like Bird parent & Bird child

Cute story about a cute bird

@@MaxOakland , I truly miss him, and thank you very kindly.

Good safety tip, for the uninformed. I'm getting my Grandson one for Christmas, he loves birds

💜💜🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹

exactly lmfao

plus gives them a chance to preen

e se deus não existir??

Amém.

@@julicats8039 Amada, a vida é uma dádiva. Não somos um acidente, uma coincidência ou obra do acaso. Deus nos ama e quer que tenhamos um relacionamento com Ele. A vida pode nos trazer um fardo pesado e muitas dores a ponto de nos perguntarmos: Aonde está Deus quando... isto ou aquilo? Arrependa-se dos seus pecados e entregue sua vida a Cristo. Que Deus te abençoe. ❤️ "Eu (Jesus) sou o caminho, a verdade e a vida, ninguém vem ao Pai(Deus) se não por mim". João 14:6

IT'S A BOY.

Yes!
