It depends on the cockatiel, and it depends on the owner. I would say if you let it warm up to you and if you try to give it treats and sing and/or talk to it in a calm voice it would be from 1 week-5 weeks. If it was hand-fed and cared for by humans as a chick then it would be sooner than a wild cockatiel. It also is very dependent on the cockatiel's personality. Cockatiels have varied personalities just like people, so you would have to know the cockatiel personally.

Why is your cockatiel not very tame?

Cockatiels are wild birds so if they were never tamed when they were young, they will still be untame. It is easier to tame a young cockatiel, however with the right attitude, you can tame an adult cockatiel. You have to start with trust. Taming a cockatiel take a while and one wrong move could ruin all your work. Start with standing next to the cage and talking to your bird. Do this for about a week so your cockatiel gets to know your voice and is calmer around you. Then you could try putting a fresh vegetable (in your hand) next to the cockatiel and hold it there. Don't force the cockatiel to get closer to your hand - this will scare him/her. You need to earn trust. Eventually, your cockatiel will be comfortable with you having your hand near him/her. If you cockatiel is comfortable to actually eat from your hand, you can try picking it up. Do not grab our cockatiel on its back, try to persuade him/her to sit on your finger. Do not force your cockatiel to get onto your hand. This will ruin the trust. Eventually your cockatiel will be ready to sit on your finger and eventually your shoulder! It's all about trust and if you're cockatiel trusts you, it would love to sit on your shoulder!


Can you pick up your cockatiel?

You can pick up a cockatiel whether it is hand tame or not. This does influence how you pick it up, though. If your cockatiel is hand tame, you just put it on your finger, your arm, your shoulder, etc. and it just sits there happily. When it is not hand tame, you have to pick the cockatiel up by its back with your index finger and middle finger around its head. On the internet, look up ways to hold an untame cockatiel and find a diagram so that you pick your cockatiel up correctly if it is untame.

I got a new untame cockatiel and it sways from side to side. why?

Cockatiels sway from side to side and hiss when they are afraid of something. He/she is warning you to leave before they bite. As you've only just got him/her it's best to give them a day or two to relax and settle in, before beginning to tame them.

How do you tame a non hand raised conure?

I hand tame cockatiels by myself, you have to wear gloves at first get them out of the cage clip there wings that way they won't fly away and hold them and pet them for a long time and before you know it there hand tame but when you have a hand tame bird you have to give it a lot of attention if you don't it will bite really hard sometimes, it takes less then a day to hand tame a bird it probably takes 3 to 5 hours. Hope you get the conure tame :)

How do you tame cockatiels?

tame them?! if you are have problems with a mean cockatiel, then I suggest you start bonding. You can play with them and teach them songs. but as for taming.... well if it bites, never flinch away or cry out in pain. When I got my first cockatiel it bit me so many times that if i just rubbed against a wall my hand would bleed. But eventually may cockatiel stopped. It will get used to you. As for sitting on your hand, well that is usually automatic, but it will loosen up and start to walk all around your body and play with your hair, and so on. To keep them from flying away is a trick. You have to keep them entertained enough that they won't leave. Eventually they will learn, interacting with humans is not inate for birds.
