Hello everyone,
I got a new cockatiel that it's handfed, it's 7 weeks old and only eats millet.The breader says to continue the millet for a few more months,the problem is that now I don't have anything to use for training.The bird is still afraid of me (not a lot, yesterday it stepped in my hand when it was inside the cage) and I cannot use millet for treat.
Any ideas?

try using different types of foods that like dried veggies and fruits
my bird in particular will come and grab the bag of chips (small bag) or just take one and run off and eat one but when i do eat anything like that it is safe for her because i know that she likes to do that.
but try and eat stuff around he or she because it will in courage it to like it!
i hope this helps
