Does he appear to be healthy/well fed? If he looks okay and is acting normally, he probably IS eating when you are not watching. I'm sure he's drinking too........I didn't see my birds drink at all for the first 2-3 weeks, but they were. They just had to feel comfortable to eat and drink when we were around. What are you feeding your bird? If the food you are offering him is different from the food he is used to, that might be the cause of him not eating. Birds need to be introduced to new foods gradually. If you are concerned and feel something might be wrong, or if you notice anything wrong in the bird, then a trip to the vet should be in order. Hope that helps!
Thank you for the warm welcome Popcornbird

His poop does look normal to me, which is a very good sign. I'm a first time cockatiel mommy so i don't know how active the typical cockatiel is, however he does seem pretty quiet. He doesn't move around much. I just realized that he is eating his millet seed treat, which is good. He ate some seed late last night, however, he didn't eat much. The only time I was able to get him to drink (that i have realized) is when I took the water bowl and put it in front of him. I am very concerned that he does not take interest in vedgies. I have given him carrots, brocoli, and sweet potato. Is there any fruits that your Cockatiel's like?

I will post the food name when I get home later (I'm on a work comp)

I also forgot to mention that he is kind of shaking. He is not like obssesively shaking but just a little, its hard to notice if your not looking at him at a close distance. Is this just nerves?

Thank you SO MUCh for your help!
