Bird having trouble flying.

Home More advice Pets & Animals

I have a cockatiel and he doesn't fly much but when he does he's fine however lately (in the past few weeks) I've noticed when he flys from my shelf to his cage or whatever he'll fly the wrong way and he crashes almost everytime he flys. Is he ok? WHat do you think is causing this? How can I help it? He's also staying in his cage a lot more when I open it but I think that's because he can't fly well enough to get to his shelf and such.
