Can a tamed cockatiel speed up taming my new male cockatiel?

Question

I have bought a 5 months old male cockatiel 3 weeks ago. He is not tamed and im trying to tame it. If i put a tamed bird inside his cage(she is female), does it boost his taming action? Or it brings the speed down? Pet's info: Bird | Unknown - Bird | Male

I think if the new bird would feel comfortable with a companion in his cage then it would be beneficial in helping to tame him. However, if the new bird acts stressed with a cage mate it would be better to leave them separated. Be patient and go slow with the new bird, using lots of treats to help coax him into feeding comfortable with you. It will also help if the new bird watches you interact with your other bird. Best of luck! Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach.
