If you have a parrot, do not expect that he will become your friend at first sight and for life. Budgerigars are cautious and shy birds. It will take some time to tame a new pet, but the result will not be long in coming. If you conduct the taming process correctly, soon the fearful parrot will turn into a tamed pet, affectionate and sincerely attached to you.

Instructions
Step 1
Do not try to tame the budgerigar from the very first minutes he settled in your house. Give him a few days or even a week to settle into his new cage. When next to the bird, speak only in a calm tone. Talk more: let the parrot get used to the sound of your voice.
Step 2
Hand feed your budgie. Place food on your palm and pull it into the cage. First remove the feeder from the cage, leave only the drinker. If the parrot is afraid to get close to your hand, take your time. Talk to him in a gentle voice, constantly repeating his name.
Step 3
When the parrot gets used to taking food from your hand while sitting in its cage, wait until it sits on your palm and very smoothly and carefully take it into the room. Allow time for the bird to look around and get used to the new space.
Step 4
Reward your pet with his favorite treats like honey sticks. Every time the parrot has expressed his favor to you, that is, he sat on your arm or shoulder on his own, praise him or treat him.
