Weaning Cockatiels
I have 5 week old cockatiels that I am trying to start to wean slowly, the last clutch I had weaned very fast at 6 weeks this bunch has no interest at all should I just start to cut back on the feedings and force them to start weaning or is that a bad thing?

weening
Hello. Never force the issue. I would start by going 1 hour past their usual time of feeding and see how it goes and start with that. Have you tried spoon feeding to get them motivated? It works well

Hello Cat,
How many cc's are you giving them now at each feeding?. Of course start putting different foods in there for them to nibble at. I like to use unsalted crackers, millet, pellets for starters.......
