I just purchased a “hand fed” baby cockatiel from a breeder. He said he has been hand feeding but the bird is extremely scared of me and my hands. Hissing and rocking back and fourth. This did not seem normal for a hand fed baby. He said it needs another week of hand feeding before it can be weaned, however this baby doesn’t want me to go near it let alone feed it. Any tips? Does it sound like it wasn’t hand fed or is the scared/defensive behavior normal even when hand fed? Any advice and tips would be very welcome. I have many birds in an aviary but I really wanted a bird that could be a companion.
