Question

My cockatiel can't stay stay still on his perch and keeps shuffling around. Is he okay? Pet's info: Bird | Cockatiel | Male | unneutered | 5 years and 6 months old

It sounds like Stormy is very restless and stressed for some reason. If he is eating and drinking and acting otherwise normally you can give a bit more time to see if his behavior goes back to normal. If this behavior persists longer than 24 hours I would have him checked by your vet. Also, make sure he is a calm, quiet area as to avoid extra stress.
