Cockatiels can be taught to sing & talk just like almost any bird. Males are more prone to do it though than the females, but every now & again, you'll see a female that can sing. They normally love to be with people & love getting their necks rubbed once they trust you. They're very affectionate loving birds & one of the most popular kind to get as a family pet. I'd recommend them to anyone. Good luck!
Thank you! I just read that they can be housed with other birds. Do you think a parakeet and a cockatiel could be housed together?
