So I got a new young cockatiel from a breeder (i don't know the gender since they didn't tell me so i decided to call my cockatiel Pearl for now) a few days ago. Pearl can step up onto my finger but whenever I try to pet Pearl, they hiss and bite at me. Am I rushing in this? And if so, what can I do to not rush and scare Pearl?
