color=Red]The following is my opinion and the way I train my 'tiels. Remember each bird and owner have their own technique.[/b][/color]

Taming
<p>
There are many ways to tame an untamed parrot. Below are some ideas.
<p>
1. Never grab an untamed b ird without a glove or something on. They do bite hard!
<p>
2. Take him out of the cage and place them in a safe room with the door closed and keep a good eye on him.
<p>
3. It helps if you first get his wings clipped so he doesn't fly around and get hurt.
<p>
4.Try to get him to come over to you with a treat.
<p>
5. talk to him gentley and inch you finger up to him. Hold it still and see if he steps up.
<p>
6. Never chase him with your hand or frighten him. This will give him a bad idea about your hands.
<p>
7. Lastly, if all else fails grab him with a towel. Once he calms down try to pet his head. This is the easy way to get him to not think of you as a threat.
