Hi all. I am just wondering about some stuff. I bought two cockatiels today. A male and a female. They were together in a cage with their baby. I am wondering now if the guy gave me the pair or one parent and their chick. If one of the birds in the cage had a greyish yellow face and the other two bright yellow faces what one will be the baby. Two of the tiels looked very alike. The two I have is one cinamon pearl split to pied. And then one pearl split to pied. The other one that was in the cage with them looked like the pearl split to pied but with a greyish yellow mask.
I can't upload any pics

I'm not an expert. However, from my limited knowledge, the bird with the greyish yellow mask could be either a juvenile or an adult female. The two with bright yellow faces would be males.
I believe a male cockatiel will lose its pearls when it becomes mature. So, the pearl birds would be either juvenile or adult female.
It sounds to me as though you got the pair. Let's see if someone with more knowledge has a different opinion.

All of them still have pearling. The cinamon pearl still has some pearling here and there. Al little on its wings and tail. The pearl split to pied have pearling almost everywhere and its tail still have some yellow feathers and baring. The cinamon pearl is very quiet. And the paerl split has made a veiw noises, but not a lot. I am going to go back tomorrow and ask the guy if the tiel in the cage screemed when we left if it did that means I have a adult and a baby.

I know this is an oid post, but I am wondering what happened with the two cockatiels. Did you have the pair? Have you figured things out?

I am totally ashamed of myself that I somehow missed this post entirely! Please let me know how things went?
