What a lovely bird and caring woman. I only had time to watch half of this now. For a short while, a woman lived across the street and had an Amazon parrot. He liked NO ONE but her. She fed him a total seed diet. He was in a domed cage with a stone for his beak hanging from the center. I started pulling a chair up to the low table that held the cage. My eyes would be the same level as the top perch where he sat most of the time. I figured looking mostly down on me would make him feel more comfortable. I would talk gently/soothingly to him while I gave him pieces of fresh carrots and/or broccoli. He loved them, of course. I then gave him popsicle sticks I had saved. He shredded them like eating corn on the cob. He then let me tie a small string to the top of the cage, not lunging at me, and hang a TP roll. He immediately became a hole-punch machine! Not long after that he let me scratch the top of his head. That was less than 10 visits! He dropped something and I reached in the cage to get it. The first time I tried that he lunged at me, hanging upside down from his perch. After being able to scratch his head, I could reach in his cage anytime I needed to without any negative reactions from him. Then they moved. I bought him a goodbye gift of a bowl for her to put fresh food in. I love what I learn about birds, just in case I have the pleasure of being around one, or two, or three! Thank you for all you teach!

I spent 32 years trying to get my husband’s blue & gold macaw to not attack me, even though I ended up being his primary caretaker. He was definitely a one-person bird, no matter what I tried...wish you guys had been around then! I hope everybody thinks long and hard before making a LIFETIME commitment to a big, beautiful bird. Chester, I tried. 😪

@MrJdubz100 2 года назад

I have been really lucky with parrots. My “super aggressive” 4 year old Catalina macaw bonded with me in 3 days. She can step up and step down nearly 100% of the time now.

@uberbeast113 Год назад

Alexandrine Parakeets have never appealed to me until I watched this gorgeous creature. He's bright as a button, so intelligent and willing to learn. Distrustful but so gentle with his biting communication when he doesn't want to step up. What a pleasure to work with I would imagine

Our Indian ringneck is shared across my family of 5. She's used to all of us especially my mum, when she's cooking she just flies to her and watches her do her thing. Very cute. We got her at 6 months and at first she was very shy and would always stay away from us and look away. I'm glad she is comfortable with us now. She's cheeky and often hops onto my dads iPad as he uses it in hopes that he will put on a video for her 😂

@gordsjackson8109 4 года назад

I know this is an old video but I have enjoyed watching the whole class with each bird and trainers, one thing I noticed was the speed everyone initially tries with the birds, and how much they are in a birds personal space, perhaps asking if they can train or would like to train would slow them down a little. We are training a 24 yr old macaw that has had no interaction for 15 years , he is doing great thanks to your videos, but what he clearly doesn't like is fast movement, when we approach gently he is gentle, if we move to fast into his space he will become aggressive immediately.. When you see dave work he is slow and steady xx

We just adopted a 22 year old Alexandrine Parakeet in January and his mannerisms are exactly like this! All the things you are working on are the things we are working on with ours but I guess i'm not surprised because we have 22 years of who knows what behaviors to work through. It's interesting to see how a lot of the things he does may be part of the type of parrot though. We follow your feeding system for ours and he loves it! it took him a couple weeks to get used to the pellets but he loves them now.

lot of factors rooney notice thats why it gives him more confusion, the positioning of the owner how she carries the training, the girls sleeves also make him scared, the hand gesture of making rooney step.up is not uniformed..it is also very important to shadow properly the movement of the original trainer to figure him out he felt secured.

She can get violent with me or the kids if we approach him the wrong way while she's on him, she loves us all but at times the drive to protect her mate (my mate) makes her act out. He doesn't try to encourage her to do this but I feel like she believes he's encouraging the behavior if that makes sense🤔

@wrenak 5 лет назад

How do you train targeting and step up if the bird is terrified of sticks/stick-like objects and hands? My parents have a 5 or 6-year-old quaker parakeet that they got a few months ago. He was caged for a solid 3 years because one day he flew into a ceiling fan that was on and, instead of turning the fan off whenever he was out like you would think, he was just left in the cage 24/7. He's now allowed out from the time they get up until the time it's his bedtime every day, except when they have to leave the house or when company comes over. He has gotten a bit better with his behavior, but he will still attack anyone that isn't my parents. He is much better behaved with my dad than my mom, yet will still attack skin (he will sort of step up on dad's arm as long as it's covered by his shirt). I am unsure if he was tormented while he was in the cage or it's because he went so long without socialization. At any rate, they would like to teach him trust and proper behavior. How can that be done with his fears? Thanks in advance for any replies.

What do you do if your bird is mean over foods and treats? My Green Check Conure use to let me feed him sunflower seeds and pecans by hand but after awhile he started biting me . Even running up my chest to bite my face. So I only feed him by hand through the cage bars. He gets mad when I remove his food bowls, even his water bowl. The only way I can clean his cage is if I give him sunflower seeds on a table while I clean it . He will fly across the room to attack me if he sees me open the door to get a food bowl .

This is super helpful. I have one question. My bird is the same way, but he will get totally aggressive with other people and I mean lunge and chase them down the halls of our house... I'd love to get my family members to work with him but I dont know how to accomplish that when he won't sit still for them. I don't want to clip him either, he is a couple steps into free flighting (which I also need a partner to help me call him back and forth and he likes n o o n e) but I can't continue because of his aggression towards other people. My family wants to clip his wings, but I'd hate to do that to him seeing as he loves to fly but it might be the only way to work with him.. He's a sun conure and shows absolutely zero aggression towards me. He lets me pick him up, put him down, he does tricks, I can easily get him down from places including my shoulder. You'd think he's a perfect polite bird until someone else walks in the room. Any suggestions?
