Hello

I have a 9 week olk tiel who has now settled down, steps up, can be patted, bites a little.

I am looking to start training, can anyone suggest a web site that offers free info?

Thanks

You're on one. What are you looking to train him or her to do? I'd keep working on stepping up and down and not biting, your baby is still young but it's never too early to start a good foundation. Are you interested in clicker/marker training, tricks, talking (do tiel's talk?)?

There's a Yahoo clicker training group at Bird-Click : Bird-Click They expect you to do some independent reading, using either the free files on the group website or the book at Amazon.com: Clicker Training for Birds (Getting Started): Melinda Johnson: Books (Personally I recommend the book because it's much better organized) Their forum advice is free.
