These funny birds with beautiful plumage are able to imitate the sounds of human speech, have an affectionate, friendly character, love to learn new things and play. Therefore, it is quite easy to accustom such a parrot to the hands, you just need to show patience.
Instructions
Step 1
If you've just brought the cockatiel home, let the bird get comfortable. Do not disturb the parrot unnecessarily, let him calmly examine the cage and understand that he is not in danger. Gradually start communicating with the winged pet. Walk up to the cage several times a day and talk affectionately with the bird. At the same time, keep your hands close to your face so that the parrot associates them with communication.
Step 2
When contact is achieved, and the corella begins to feel at ease, gradually and casually bring your hands closer to her. If the bird gets scared, immediately remove them to their original position. In the morning, before feeding, slowly and slowly push your palm with the grains into the cage. Wait for the parrot to bite them. Every day he will do it more daringly. Then begin to move your hand with food further and further away from the bird, so that it will eventually be forced to sit on your hand. Talk affectionately with your feathered friend all the time.
Step 3
Now you can move on to the next step. Corella is unlikely to be able to sit on a finger: she has very large paws and long fingers. But the parrot will be comfortable on the arm or shoulder. To the cockatiel, then press your fingers a little on its abdomen. Then the parrot will sit on your hand. Be sure to praise him for this, give him a treat. Then carefully remove the parrot sitting on your arm from the cage, and then return it there again and reward it with delicious food. Do such exercises regularly, then the bird will quickly get used to the hands.
