The Yellow Cockatiel and Gray Cockatiel are critters that spawn in the Jungle during the daytime.

Cockatiels have only 5 health and no defense, and can be damaged by other enemies and players.

Cockatiels can be caught with any Bug Net to be carried around in the inventory and released later, or crafted into animated decorative furniture (Yellow / Gray Cockatiel Cage). Once crafted, the Cockatiels cannot be released again, unless the furniture item is de-crafted via Shimmer(Desktop, Console and Mobile versions).

Cockatiels can be spawned by the Cockatiel Statue, however statue-spawned critters cannot be caught with any Bug Net, and will disappear in a puff of smoke when the player attempts to do so.
