Welcome Home, Pillow's Friend! | New Bird Reveal 

If you have a suggestion for a name for our new baby bird, and Pillow's new friend, please leave them in the comments. We'd love to hear your ideas. Thanks!

Who remembers when they first got pillow

Quilt is such a cute name! Pillow and quilt

Pearl works nicely with Pillow, and incorporates your son's suggestion!

Your cockatiel is so adorable!! I noticed that you guys have a grate on the bottom of the cage and I recommend removing it because it can be a hazard to birds, especially younger ones since they can be clumsy and can land on the grate and hurt themselves.

I wish my parakeets were that calm.

He atac He protcc Most importantly he Monch on his snacc

Zillow (not because of the website, that’d just be a super cute name for her! Plus it rhymes with pillow!) Daisy Mrs. Puff Goldie Mango Cheeto (for her orange cheeks) Honey Zaffa Zippie Zazu

If the bird is a male, the pearl markings will generally go away, but if female, the pearls remain

When we first got my conure, it was cute seeing her navigate around her new cage, but in a way, I wanted to scoop her up and cuddle her 😂😂

Best parents ever!

She's beautiful! Can't wait to see how her flight feathers grow in.

I love it when she poffs up or puffs up

Both of those birds are BEAUTIFUL!

Here’s some name ideas: Pina colada, Pikachu, Blush, Coconut, Pearl

Hello little Cockatiel! You’re very very cute!!

Males will lose the pearls, females keep them :) What a cutie! Congrats and welcome to being owned by a cockatiel! Lol.

A Perfect Choice! Cockatiels are very sweet birds, very smart, social, and very non-aggressive. I think you made the best choice possible.

Congratulations! I just got two new baby Cockatiels. One looks like yours. She is a cinnamon pearl pied, like yours. The other one is a white face charcoal. My Cockatiel that looks like yours is named Willow and the other is Jingles. Willow matches Pillow! Other names I can think of is Spike, Pearly, Smokey, Blossom, Stormy as that was my previous Cockatiels name. I also have another Cockatiel named Monty 😀

The Cockatiel looks like a Pikachu!!! So cute get this to the top!!😃😄😄😀😃💕💞💓💢

AWW ITS A COCKATIEL!!😱😁😁

It looks so fluffy. I want it.

I think she would suit the names Sparky or Willow :) she’s so cute you made the right choice with a cockatiel 💛🦜

Cockatiel! They’re the nicest most loving pet ever!

love ur vids but plastic bowls are bad for bird they will get dirty and bacteria

I have worked with cockatiels and many other types of pet birds for over 35 years. My guess is that you have a male. If so he will most likely lose the pearls. The orange cheeks are pretty vibrant too. Females have less intense orange cheek patches. It is sometimes hard to tell with baby tiels until their first molt. Females also have barring on their legs and underside of their tail feathers, males don't. I would also not house them together. Cockatiels and parakeets have different needs and behaviors. They may be fine on a shared playground but territorial issues can arise when it comes to housing. Congratulations on your new family member!

Nice post 🕊🕊🕊

plush or plushy would be a good name because it matches pillow

A cockatiel!! They are very loud (depends on the bird) they need sooo much attention but slso very fun to play with.

Congratulations. She is beautiful. Pillow will love her. Perched should be lower to the bottom at first to prevent falls that can injure.. She may not be used to other birds yet if she was not raised with siblings naturally. I use paper on bottom of cage and took out grate. Shavings can get swallowed or get moldy. and grate does not allow bird to pick up dropped food. Use an avian vet to recommend best food. Also look up Christine's Chop Shop for suggestions on healthy food.. Many people buy her food and she sends it to you. You can talk to her and she can tell you what to add to the diet you have. Good luck . She is precious. Pearl is beautiful.

can you guys link me new cage? please

Brids love bells bc it sounds like a cherp of another bird

Male tiels will lose the pearling, yes. It can take a few molts.

Gorgeous mutation. I myself have a cinnamon pearl pied Cockatiel. As well as 2 parakeets and a gold cap Conure.

Pal that's a good name

yay a new bird for the family

*quilt!* I saw another comment with this name, and I think it’s kinda cute! It matches with pillow perfectly, and it sounds adorable! Congrats on your new little baby ❤️

this parrot already more confident

The best way to tell make from female is one a DNA test or two if the bird lays eggs.

The new Bird is so cute 😍 I love both 😍😍🐦🐦

If it is a girl Pearl would be a pretty name since she will have the pearl markings!

I am so hyped i'm getting a cockatiel in 3 weeks! I hope it's as cute as this one.

Name her/him matress or blanket or something that matches pillow

Every one like who remember pillows first day

It should be blanket lmao

Who remember when they got pillow for the first time.that was so cute

you guys have my two favorite kinds of birds!! Budgie and Cockatiel! How much did she cost? And please do not listen to those saying that you do not love your birds or care for them. You clearly have done lots of research, and know what you’re doing. And yes, most budgies get along with cockatiels, but it’s all about how you train her/him. Stay awesome! 😎

Cute😍❤️ I also have such a parrot only that is has a slightly different color 😀👍🦜

Kissy, Cheeky , Quilt ,Ash ,Storm ... I like storm the best

Congrats !!! I am so happy for you guys and your new addition! I know she will be well loved, you guys do your homework too, which is great! Chili peppers actually taste sweet to parrots, they don't taste the hotness like we do ! If she is a girl, she will keep her pearls. If he is a boy, he will lose them, and turn into a normal looking grey cockatiel , unless - he is a pearl pied. Then he will keep a very small amount of pearls on his wings only, and lose all pearls on his back. You will have some idea if she's a girl or a boy by her behaviour by the time she is 6 months old and the first molt begins. Males sometimes start whistling a lot sooner, and you will know you have a male possibly a lot sooner then if she is a female. Males will whistle a lot, show heart wings, bow their heads while singing, and sometimes dance to music / tap dance / drum their cage bars or anything like a woodpecker. Females do not learn to whistle most of the time, they are more quiet and just flock call when your out of sight usually. A female will show hormonal behaviour by sticking her butt in the air and doing fast chirps. A male will masterbate on things. Males can be angry when hormonal, but it goes away after their hormones settle down (Some extreme cases, you have to leave him in the cage for a couple of weeks). Aww, too bad they clipped her =( Clipping young birds is not advised, it takes them a lot longer to learn to fly.(And some never learn sadly) I have my budgies for 8 years now and I have a 1 1/2 year old cockatiel, so if you need any advice just message me :) Young cockatiels are very playful and that's the best time to introduce healthy foods to them ! Your pellets have sugar in them, they are most likely zupreem brand. Natural is better (but dont throw it away, just mix it with some natural pellets if you like!) I feed my birds roudybush pellets, nibbles for my budgies and mini for my cockatiel. Even though the mini is about a cm in size, my tiel loves to chew them all up. Once again, vegetables/sprouts is the healthiest food to feed her , although she needs some pellets and seeds. Sunflower/flaxseed/peanuts/almonds should not be given to cockatiels, they are high in fat. Sunflower can be given 1-2 per day but thats all thats recommended. Cockatielcottage.net has amazing information about cockatiels, and budgies and cockatiels eat the same food !

Name suggestions: Duvet Angel Nimbus Pikachu Sassafras

Have been binge watching your videos for two hours now! 😅 Love the way you treat your birds!!! 💓💓💓

I think you should name the new Birdy...... Polly!!😂 They could be Pillow and Polly! Best team ever. Also it's good that you got a native specie of bird that come from the same place as budgies. To be fair you guys should try getting a zebra finch or a canary for your third bird. I have 4 Zebra finches and 2 budgies My mom told me that when she was in the late teens or a bit later she had 6 budgies,2 cocktiels and a dove. So I guess my family is just loves birds😂

Feather , because I adore her pattern with the gray stripes !!!

Name her blankie to go with pillow

I think cheeky is cute for her/him because of her cheeks

I think “Quilt” is a nice name.

Cockiteil: -sings- :3. Me: sings back-. Bird: what is you

How about Sheila or pearl!!

Best channel ever for birds

my cockatiels name is Thanos

I hate that people dislike bird videos like they are so cute

I know it was a cockatiel they are extremely friendly Tame loveable etc. she is a female btw she a yellow perl cockatiel 😀😍😍😍

Name the birdie Pepper, because it likes red peppers so much!

Pikachu because she has orange cheeks and she kind of reminds me of him

That is a beautiful parrot 🦜

Noooo😢 I had so much hope that you got a budgie... A cockatiel isn't a real friend for a budgie. They don't speak the same language. They just will be together and that's it. It's like if you put a guinea pig with a rabbit. They are similar but not the same abd they don't understand eachother.

Putting the budgie at a distance away from the family can and prob will cause behavior issue's! Pillow is use to his routine and not being stuffed away in a bedroom. I have just purchased a new bird and we purchased a stand to hang the cage from online at Walmart and it is worth every penny. It was $23.99 to $25.99. It looks like your new bird is a male from the color!

Ava Beatrix Buzz Flight-Air Coco Flappy Kluckie Phoenix Pilot Shooting Star Tailfeather

Omg those are my 2 favorite birds. I really want a budgie, a cockatiel, and a sun conure

Molly or Marley and I’m getting my first cockatiel in 2 weeks so excited 😆🦜❤️

Aww.. Bad thing there’s two birds squawking in the night .~.

You should name your cockatiel popcorn or lucky

I’m so excited!!! YAYY!!😊😊🙂

Name suggestions: Kiko Hollie/Holly Jersey Lucy May Winter Autumn Sammy Sunny Sunshine

Awwww. So lovable. Nice choice for the bird and for you guys.

I breed Cockatiels and I have bred them for about 20 years. It looks like you have a male

I also love RedBirds

Pearl or ruby if it's a girl and chilli or pepper if it's a boy

Sky Ari Layla Blanket Peach Tilli

IM SO MAD I DON’T HAVE A COCKATIEL But I have 2 budgies

Congratulations on your handsome new addition to your flock! 🎉 Beautiful bird indeed 🥰. They are wonderful companions. Note: I recently added a baby hand fed cockatiel to my flock in January. He is very tame and loves to perch on us very much. But be careful until the flight feathers grow in. They can fall (as expected when clipped) and in in a short distance can hurt their underside. I’m dealing with this currently. So I’d sit while the bird is out so that a fall will be short. They are heavier and their tails more rigid than a budgie. Be careful. Great choice. Best of luck with all ❤️🐤🐦

Marshmallow, Ciel/le? They're so beautiful! Ps. Ladders and boing style perches might help her get around ;)

Thank goodness that it is okay to put your budgie in bedrooms 😅

I think her name should be pearl or marble

Pearl! Call her pearl

Maby quill (quilt) because of pillow or maby tola or possibly pearl or tiel

Oh my gosh. I'm so happy that you got a cockatiel. I have two cockatiels as well. She is so beautiful. Hope she gets along with Pillow

Been waiting for this thankd! It makes me feel like a sexy and smooth looking pigeon :D

She seems very tame she’s very cute

What about sun or sunshine???😊😊😊

In 7:23 you can actually see markings in the bottom of the tail feathers and those indicate that the cockatiel is a female

I have some names cloud , sky, shadow, marshmallow

You should name her blanket to go along with pillow

Please do not feed him/her those pellets. They look very unhealthy because they have added coloring. Zupreem Natural is probably the best pellets for them. Obviously with fruits and vegetables every single day!

Congratulations on your new addition! Beautiful bird. So excited! Have been waiting for this big day. Delighted, when I saw the video had posted. Look forward to the future adventures of Pillow and his new friend.

Same day i just got my indian ringneck

Winnie for a boy💛 Minnie for a girl💗

the should be.....carpet

I suggest Blanket, to match Pillow
