Answer
Hi Heba! Did you take your baby cockatiel to an avian vet to see what the problem could have been?  Baby birds need to be handfed and weaned, and this is an advanced process that takes a lot of time, work, practise, and expertise. Not only that but a lot of things can go wrong with baby birds. I don't know a lot about baby birds (sorry!) but I suggest that something went wrong with the weaning process.

I'm really sorry for your loss.

Good luck, hopefully you will consider buying another (weaned) cockatiel.
