And for good reason. You want to make sure you are getting a cockatiel that has been raised and tamed in the right way. Here are a few tips for finding that loving cockatiel. You usually have two choices of where to purchase your new cockatiel. With either one, you want to make sure they are reputable. The local pet shop: Some local pet shops do acquire cockatiels from private breeders on commission. Most likely these cockatiels will be hand raised and tame. How tame your cockatiel will be also depends on how long the local pet shop has had the cockatiel and if the employees continued to work with the bird, You should be able to get the history on your cockatiel if it was from a private breeder such as his age, pedigree, any illness history etc. For the most part many local pet shops acquire their birds in bulk from suppliers across the country who only supply birds and dont work with them. These birds will still be wild and untamed since they most likely just were shipped into the country and sold to pet shops. Adopting a cockatiel this way will require more work on your part when it comes to taming and training him. It isnt an impossible task, but just be aware you will have to have more patience and it may take longer to accomplish what you want. Cockatiels sold in bulk like this usually come with no health history or age history so you really wont know anything about them. Private Cockatiel Breeder: If you have access to a private cockatiel breeder, this is probably your best bet. Do your research to make sure the breeder is reputable. If you live close enough, visit his facility and see how his cockatiels are hatched and raised and what the living conditions are. This will tell you a lot about the breeder. Since most private breeders hand raise the cockatiels and work with them individually, you will have a better chance of adopting a tame cockatiel. This will make your training a lot easier. Plus, you will also know the history of your bird, his age, health history and pedigree. These are some simple guidelines to follow to help you make the best decision of where to adopt your cockatiel from. Doing some research before purchasing a pet cockatiel can save you a lot of time trying to reverse some behavior issues that you have acquired with your new pet. Cockatiels are very loving pets and will bond with you to give you many years of companionship.
