Cockatiel Cockatiels live in all Australian mainland states and territories, primarily in arid inland areas. Outside of breeding season, they form large nomadic flocks that move fr om place to place as native grasses and cultivated crops come into seed. Popular and adored as pets, they are considered pests by farmers when they move in to forage on food crops. They prefer native grasses however, and will eat these in preference to cultivated grains. Cockatiels don't stray too far from water as there is little water to be gained from their food. Cockatiels that have escaped from captivity in other countries have failed to establish colonies, but there is estimated to be around a million cockatiels in Australia. Show more
