Question
I Have 2 male cockatiels that has been sharing the same cage for years. All of a sudden they are fighting. What would cause them to fight when together in same cage

Answer
Hello AJ,

I believe that the cockatiels are getting bigger, and the cage is becomming too small for them to share. If the cage is too small, try buying a larger cage. I also recommend sparying them with a water bottle when they fight. I do this to my friends when they are fighting (the do fight occasionally) and it works. I hope you are successful.
