well i got my cockatiel at a pet store a year ago, but he was three when i got him. he was not hand fed and he was a meanie for the longest time. a few months ago he started to accept being held without jumping away or biting and just two weeks ago he let me pet him! i was so happy because the pet store lady said he would be untameable. he still lets me pet him a bit, but only a certain way (on top of his head like you would to a dog, or on his neck backwards). he lets me do it but without liking it much, and if i do it for too long he'll get all mean and mad and try to push me away or nip. how can i make him enjoy it more?
