Cockatiel Care Guide — a 28-page fillable PDF for new cockatiel owners: cage setup, safe foods, toxic-food list, night-fright fix, bird-proofing, and a morning weight log.

Everything a first-year cockatiel owner needs, in one calm, sourced place — written by one careful keeper, not a content mill.

WHAT'S INSIDE (28 pages, fillable logs included):
• The first 48 hours + why a prey animal needs you to do less
• Booking the first well-bird avian-vet visit (+ a contacts card you fill in)
• Cage size, bar spacing, perches & placement
• The seed-only danger explained — and a step-by-step seed→pellet conversion tracker
• Safe fresh foods, the grit myth, and a full toxic-foods list with the reason each one hurts
• The PTFE / Teflon fume map (the danger most owners never hear about)
• Toxic vs. safe houseplants, and room-by-room bird-proofing
• A morning gram-weight log (a ~10% drop = call the vet)
• Night frights — why cockatiels thrash in the dark and how to prevent it — plus feather-dust/asthma notes
• Screaming & biting decoding, sexing your cockatiel at home, first aid & emergency contacts, and a full care calendar

HOW IT WORKS:
Instant download. Type into the PDF fields on your computer (Adobe Acrobat Reader) or print it blank and write by hand — both work. Comes in US Letter + A4.

Sourced from avian-veterinary guidance — AAV, LafeberVet, VCA, UC Davis, and the Merck/MSD Veterinary Manual. No hype, no "vet-reviewed" stamp I can't back up.

Digital download — no physical item ships. For personal use.
