My boyfriend just looks at them and they hiss, but if I come near their cage they beg me to take them out of their cageThey are trying to scare him away for some reason.
No they don't hiss at my brother or my brother's dog, my boyfriend doesn't wear a watch.could be all sorts of things. some birds prefer women to men or men to women. is he the only man they hiss at?
they could be afraid of an accessory he's wearing like a shiny watch.
maybe he's wearing a brightly colored shirt? some birds are scared of those
Well he is my new boyfriend maybe they don't know him well yet. But when they meet my female friends for the first time they don't hissMaybe your boyfriend did something they didn't like, or maybe they don't know him very well yet.
I've noticed that. Amazing that little thing they have in their personality, isn't it...Cockatiels are little mercenaries. They are willing to tolerate people who give them treats, even if they don't like them.
So my guess would be your 'tiels don't quite understand that your boyfriend isn't a monster. And worse, they think he's a monster that's keeping you away from them...Well he is my new boyfriend maybe they don't know him well yet. But when they meet my female friends for the first time they don't hiss
