Hello,
My name is Ray and I’m a proud owner of Two Budgies and Two Cockatiels.
I have two questions.
First is about Chello, my 1.5 year old Male Cockatiel. I’ve had him since he was 8 months old, and trained him nice and slowly.
he now steps on my finger, flys in the house and knows where to perch while outisde, eats from my hand, and even replies to my calls to fly to me when he’s hanging somewhere high (walls..)
One small but major problem that am not able to solve, is biting.
He just doesn’t like to be touched, and I really do want to be able to pet him.
While he is very cooperative and fast learner, he just cannot learn not to bite and I really don’t know what to do, any help?
Second question is about Chella, my 6 months old Lutino female cockatiel.
I got her less than a week ago, of course she’s still very shy, calm, and rejects interactions so I’m providing her with needed space to settle in, but she’s always facing the wall not looking at me, and very afraid when my hand is inside the cage to change her food bowls.
question is, can someone advise if there is anything that can be done about that? And what age is suitable for her to start breeding ?
