i suppose you want tame kubus,?
how much time do you have kubus?
Does he live in a cage?
Is he calm? or scary?
Can you touch him? Does he likes it?
Do you put him out of his cage? Has his feathers clipped?
Give us few information for kubus and your relationship

its not so easy to tame a irn, its more easy if you had handfeeding him when he was few weeks old.
Now he need time and patience
You must win his trust first, for that spend time with him, talking him and serve him treats and toys with your hands.
You must provide him a quiet enviroment, free from stress, dont make things that afraid him
when he uses you, it may touch him and try then to put him out of his cage for a fly into rooms.
But you must wait.... :)

I think you'll find it is much easier to tame a bird when they are clipped, but if you don't want to, you might have to work a little more harder. Its all up to you really. Once they are tame and trusting of you enough you can let them fly, but you will have to keep up the training and they need to learn to 'come' to you. Which is what I have done with my oldest bird. If you don't know how to do it, find someone who can clip. Like an avian vet.
