Being held is fine. You will need to wait until the 6 month molt and see if you have a male or female and I'll tell you females are not known to talk. I've been around a lot of males and females and have never seen a female that talked. Still, in my opinion, they can make better pets in a lot of ways. I hope the talking isn't all that important to you. I've seen birds that are perfectly capable, but refuse for some reason. I believe it is because their owner is so anxious for them to talk that they tend to pick up on that anxiety and not talk at all.

The time it takes for a canary to sing can vary based on several factors, including the bird's age, breed, and environment. Typically, young canaries may start singing around 3 to 6 months of age, while mature males are more likely to produce songs regularly. Consistent exposure to light, socialization, and proper care can encourage singing. However, some canaries may take longer to develop their singing abilities.
