As soon as possible... but take it slowly... Keep him interested in what your teaching him...

For training with food rewards it' important to wait until the bird is weaned, and Zorro's already there. After that point it's basically "the sooner the better" while respecting the bird's feelings of course.

Potty training is controversial because some birds learn it TOO well, and won't poop at all unless you give them the command.
