How often do I take them out for training How to get them out of there cage without making them feel uneasy? ( I have other birds in the same cage so I can't take all of them out all the time...) Btw i'm 2nd😅

Hi, first of all try to spend time near the cage. That way you can build the trust of your cockatiels, you can start by putting your hand in the cage, so that the cockatiel will trust you. I will link the video for that training in the comment. And how long you should train with them depends on how patient your bird can be, don't force them. And as always, give them a three for a job well done. And yes, this is the second comment, thanks for that! I hope this helps you.

I thought youre not meant to pet their backs because it affects their hormones and they aee it as some type of mating ?

its surprised me that you pet them on their back. I thought thats a NO GO.

[@kackmalwieder]

its not a "real" step up by command when you press your finger against their buddy. At least not in my opinion.
