Taming my bird

We recently got a cockatiel, it bites and hiss’s at us and I want to know how to tame it so my kids (age 15 and 9) can enjoy having a bird instead of getting bit!

Answer #1

you have to get a bird training glove, or whatever this glove that you can get. with all the fingers, but like a oven mitt type thing. then you gotta like, hand train your bird. put your hand inthe cage and push up on its belly by its feet and itll step onto your finger. if it bites, it wont hurt because of the glove. make sure theres no loud noises and stuff or the kids arent doing anything to scare it because it might just be spooked. after you finger train him for a while (you gotta do it a couple of times a day every day) and he doesnt bite, try taking him outta his cage. then keep doing it till he cooperates, with no hissingor biting and try it with your kids and when hes tame, take the glove off.

Answer #2

I don’t think there’s a way to actually tame a bird. Maybe do some Google search or something.
