Hi Everyone,
I'm looking for some advice with my cockatiel Noka.
I got her in March as a present from a pet shop and the only info I have is that she was never out of her cage or handled at all. I have done some research and I think she is female and someone here said approximately 9 months old. So we have started to bond and she is very happy she sings alot also has a little cheeky side and has started to eat some treats out of my hand. I have put my hand In her cage a couple of times and she didn't mind so one day when she was trying to move around I put my finger near her beast as a perch but she bit me (not angrily) I feel like she is trying to tell me she wants out of her cage as lately she keeps biting at the door and latch but I'm afraid if she does she will get scared if I try to put her back in or catch her. I've never had birds and am only learning so had anyone else these kind of issues? I'd love some tips. Thanks in advance
