it's really quite simple.........put your finger in the birds cage slowly, so you won't freak him out too badly, and get as close to him/her as possible. once they let you touch them, push gently right above their legs. push just enough so that they begin to lose their balance and have to put at least one foot on your finger, if not both. if he only puts one finger on, then just push a little more and move your finger up. they should step right onto your finger. at the same time, say "up". they will learn very soon that they need to get onto your finger when you say that. hope this helps you!
The middle finger is called a bird because birds have a long association with taunting.
The same reason Americans do. Because it's only one finger (the middle finger) used when flipping the bird.
Your middle finger.

Place your finger against the front of the bird's legs and he will instinctively step up.
Give them the finger.

The middle finger is simply called the middle finger. It is also commonly known as the "bird" or "birdie" finger when used in a gesture to express anger or defiance.
For all birds, including cockatiels, first you must gain their complete trust. Then, if they allow you, work on gtting your finger just above their feet and say the "Step Up" command. Soon the bird will understand he needs to get on your finger. If he is being stubborn, sometimes it helps to press your finger into his lower stomach area. this has worked on my bird. another way is to hold your arm out with a treat just past it so the bird has to get on your arm to reach the treat. Always reward the bird for staying on your arm.
It represents "the bird". Basically the middle finger in Afghanistan.
