Cockatiel parrots are very cute creatures that have appeared in many homes today. These birds are able to remember and repeat dozens of different words, including their nickname. It is best to acquire a cockatiel chick at the age of five to six weeks, since it is the young birds that are able to learn the fastest. And the baby will get used to the owner much faster than an adult bird.
Instructions
Step 1
If you want your pet to learn how to pronounce its own name, then it is better to choose a nickname that includes hissing, whistling sounds and the sound "r" - such sounds attract the attention of parrots, and the bird will be more comfortable and interesting to repeat after the owner.
Step 2
It is better that the name of your cockatiel is also easily separated by syllables, is not too long and does not resemble the names of other pets or the names of your family members. If you choose a similar name for the parrot, then the bird will get confused and not perceive its nickname, and if you choose a long name, then it will be quite difficult for the bird to pronounce it.
Step 3
Of course, you need to choose a nickname, taking into account the gender of your parrot. For females, the following nicknames can be cited: Asya, Assol, Berta, Blanche, Varya, Glasha, Zlata, Zhurra, Lusha, Lyra, Nyusha, Sarah, Rosa, Rozzi, Frosya, Erica, etc. Suitable nicknames for males - Archie, Ankor, Buran, Bosch, Gray, Zipper, Thunder, Garik, Zhorik, Zorro, Ikar, Krosh, Neuron, Tristan, Shrek, Eric, Yarik, Yasha, Jupiter.
Step 4
Since there may be some difficulties with determining the sex of young cockatiels, you can choose a universal nickname for your pet, for example, Basie, Stacy, Roni, Byasha, Bisha, Viki, Eshka, Chacha, Chicha, Chucha, etc.
Step 5
The choice of a nickname for any pet is very individual and depends on the taste of the owner. Take a closer look at your parrot, pay attention to what his character is, what features of behavior or appearance, and you will immediately understand which nickname suits him best.
