 tame
Java Sparrows are not as easy to tame as birds in the parrot family but, with patience and persistence, they can eventually become surprisingly tame and trusting.
During the taming period, house your Java Sparrow in a small cage such as one used for canaries or budgies.
Regardless of how tame and friendly your Java Sparrow becomes, remember that they are still small, delicate birds that retain some of their wild nature.
