Handling/Training

Taming and training an Indian Ringneck is pretty easy. Parakeets become accustom to their new environment fairly rapidly. Repetition, patience and time are the keys to successful parakeet training!

Taming Basics
Even though parakeets quickly adapt to their environment, you should give a new arrival a few days to get use to you, your voice and its cage before trying to handle it. A hand fed baby will not need much taming and can often be handled right away, as it is use to human attention. To be able to handle and train your parakeet depends first on trust, so go slowly and be consistent.
Remember that taming and training a bird takes patience, never ‘punish’ your parakeet! This only serves to destroy the trust you’ve spent so much time building.

Initial Training

Speak softly to the bird to calm it and always move slowly. With a treat held between two fingers, coax it onto your hand. It may try to fly and you may have to repeat this several times. Once your parakeet steps on your hand, you then start having it step up from one hand to the other. You can repeat the hand-taming lessons multiple times a day if necessary, but just for brief periods of time, roughly 20 minutes per lesson. Depending on the bird’s tameness, these two processes can be as quick as a hand-fed baby. An untamed bird may take many weeks or longer.
