Question

how much is a cockatiel worth?

Answer 1

They usually are priced by their color and how they were raised. You will pay more for a "hand fed" bird. Usually $130-$150.
The multi-colored ones are about the same. If you find them at a Flea Market for $45,,,, pass them up. They usually have their feathers falling off and are in bad shape.

Answer 2

If you want to buy one please go to any Petsmart store or other smaller pet stores.
Also, ask some owners and they will tell you that not even a "Master Card" could afford to pay for it. They become "priceless" as the birds become a part of the family.
For example, I have raised a sixteen year old cat since she was three months old. She is still giving me company and the only one I talk to. Although she responds with her different "meows" she keeps my sanity in "sync." If you ask me how much she costs, I would not even entertain your question.

Answer 3

depends on the coloring.

I got my Pied (grey, black and white)for 75 in 2001 i think and my Latino (all yellow) for 150 a year later.

BUT! I went to a pet store to maybe sell my babies, and the lady sells them for 100 each, but wanted to give me 25 for each! PSSSHHH. I cound't do it. I cound't let them go. So now I have 5 birds :)

Answer 4

$100 - $200

Answer 5

The price varies somewhat according to type, but they generally run around $100. Of course their companionship and what you learn about relating with animals is priceless!

Answer 6

I just bought a hand raised one for $120. I have seen them as low as $50 but not hand raised. Some rescue shelters will have them for less.

Answer 7

$1.25 for deep fried
$2.10 for roasted

Answer 8

depends on its coloring, age, and if it is hand friendly.

Answer 9

$100.00 or less...unless hand-fed tame.
