Do I need to roll a die to start training these birds during the rearing? I want to at least be able to at least teach them "Come", "Heel" and "Down" before they get big enough to cause any serious damage.

Well, its not exactly an opposed check, so it can just be assumed to have happened. The first impression of one was Tracy, and the other was of Trump's face, so they're all-but imprinted at this point, barring significant trauma.

Oh, and to address the question about animal behavior references.

I'll start with inbred hamsters. When a hamster is properly sired and bred they develop into cohesive and social groups with the other hamsters they live around. This is observable in both wild and domestic hamsters. They share resources and responsibilities.

When hamsters are inbred, they increasingly begin hoarding and stealing everything available to them, be it resources, or in case of domestic, all the toys. In times of scarcity, they will - as a group (the whole inbred family) - will literally cannibalize other hamsters.

This is why pet farms are such a problem, but that's a rant for another day. The implications I was making by that reference is to beg the question: "If that's how hamsters act when they're inbred, how do people act?" refugees, for example

Did you mean bonding of some kind? They're usually blind for the first several hours, minus the ability to tell light from dark.
If you meant familiarity, birds are usually comfortable around the individual they spend the most time with, although the biggest factor is the person who knows how to handle them properly. Most birds are quite intelligent, and can recognize human faces easily; they're capable of recalling how an individual has treated them in the past, and they even hold grudges sometimes. Each bird is unique and needs to be handled in respect to its personality (which is subtle as fuck, but exists nonetheless), so trainers who spend a lot of time with their birds by default know how that bird needs to be treated.
What they remember early on though is what sounds and patterns they associate with food, which is why you have to begin handling them all day on the first day to make sure their rewards and motor system is intact. If you expose them to loud noises or rhythmic music in the first couple days, it royally messes them up because they can't even eat/fly properly.

See this is what I'm talking about. Don't worry, you got this. Still, they're going to be running around and destroying shit before they're fully trained, don't doubt.

It'd have to be a bigger than the tower though.. These creatures range from Gargantuan to Colossal.
I though about a large perch though, for Huge flying creatures. I still want to build that castle in the mountains one day too.

Friggin' huge. There's a holodeck also. You guys have completely ignored the middle section. I know I was vague about omitting details, but you've only explored half the thing. The forge area is in the relative basement, on the opposite end of the Tower. Also, the birds will be able to perch on the Tower when they get to size.

Oh yeah well I have had to do charting myself to keep him from doing full round attacks on her until she is dead. And when the hell were these 17 times? I don't understand your character well enough to avoid these

No, but combat skills and feats yes.
The black lines indicate stuff. One of those is the vault, and one is the infirmary. The whole structure is connected by a long spiral staircase that whisks the person to their desired spot.

Well, some feats require "training" to gain. For example, two-weapon fighting is one I was going to require a competent teacher for, since the character would otherwise have to roll around using 2 weapons for a while, incurring penalties and such. With the holodeck characters can grind feats in their off hours. I am of the mind that some feats - particularly cobat feats - should be grind-able.
