How old is the Tiel? How long have you had it at home with you? Can you describe some of it's actions and how it is reacting to you right now? How many people are in your family who may be trying to make friends with it. Do you know anything about it's previous home or how it was treated whereever it lived before you got it. Do you have any experience with parrots yet or is this your first bird? If you can help me with this additional information, it will help me to give you a much better, complete answer and some suggestions about what you need to be doing with the bird. Thanks, Patricia
