Why is my Tiel eating alot?? You will go over by her and she will start to eat, does she think that we are going to take the food away from her? she never done this before (i have had her for a week today) please help?

How much are you feeding her a day??

I wouldn't worry about it. As long as she is eating a healthy amount, it really shouldn't matter when she eats it and for how long. I find that tiels tend to nibble throughout the day whereas budgies gorge themselves just once and are done for the day It kind of reflects my eating habits LOL. I suppose it has to do with the flock situation (singular birds tend to take their time eating while birds in large flocks tend to compete to eat), too.

i fill the tray once a day, she eats all of the food thats in there. i just dont want her ot eat so much she will get sick. i figured she eats alot now because she is used to us, and she didnt eat much when we brought her home. and since she was in a cage at the pet store with lots of other teils she probley wants to eat it all sicne she might think someone else will get it.
