Hi,
Your cockatiel has to be older than one month if it is flying and eating on his own. He has to be at least 3 months old. As for taming, it’s very hard to tame a bird that can fly away from you. You would have better luck if you has his wings trimmed until you can tame him, and then you can let the feathers grow back later. I’ll give you the links to our behavior and training pages to help you understand how to work with him.
Thank you for asking Lafeber,
Brenda
