Hi, this thread is for posting pictures and telling stories of your parrots! I have two male cockatiels a normal, Disco and a pearl pied Storm.

Does anyone know how to break down an 81mg aspirin to an adult cockatiel dosage? Sonnie the hen has arthritis in her leg.

I will post pictures and tell stories later since it's so late.

Start a new thread. Nobody responds to old ones.

I’m not sure. Maybe talk to your vet?

I do not think they can have aspirin. Try dark cherry juice and/or cayenne pepper with her food.

Here are two of my sweet keets (I have 12, none are really hand tame but these boys are always ready for millet) I lost the one on the left (Salsa Verde) in the last month due to a freak accident, which has been really hard. These two are my favorites (don't tell the others) and he was my second parakeet, so I miss him dearly. The one on the right (Noodle) misses him too, but he is starting to cheer up again <3 For my birthday, I got a lot of pictures of him from my fiancée and we are hanging them up around the house, so he is always with us <3

Here is my pied pearl cockatiel Mac soon after I got her. She is now flighted and doesn't really hang out with me as much, but she's a really sweet bird.

Please speak with your vet.

Because house birds are so much smaller than a cat or dog and metabolize differently- it could be potentially fatal trying to dose your own bird.

What you can do now is change the perches to platforms and wider perches, this will help her out. I know some owners will use a heat lamp or heated perch.

You can try reading into herbal remedies like what they use in humans too. I sprinkle turmeric on their food. You could try cinnamon or cayenne as well.
