I received a cockatiel from a co-worker who could no longer care for him, and he is now nearly 9 years old. He's very sweet, but no matter how much I repeat words to him, he doesn't respond. I honestly don't think he got much attention with his former owner, as he had no toys or anything in his cage, only a food and water dish. He didn't really start saying much of anything till I gave him toys and a swing. Now he cries to get out of his cage,and is content to sit on my shoulder for hours. Is he too old to learn how to talk?
