Red Bellied Parrot Stationing | Teach Your Bird to Stay! (Tutorial) 

That red belly parrot is so smart. I’m impressed

The more I hear from you, the more that I learn that the basics...sleep, food, confidence solves just about anything.

Thank you for your teaching methods. I have not yet used them on an exotic bird but I did on my blue jay I rescued, raised and sent back out into the wild with a female who came daily to the window until I had to let him go with her otherwise he would have harmed himself on the window glass. I taught him to meow and say Here kitty kitty! He could sing the first five note stanza of the Star Wars theme. Luckily he did not keep those skills but he does still visit our bird feeder and say hello at the window with his wife. He lets me know if the bird feeder is being hogged by the squirrels or there are hawks outside.

Hi! Zazu’s mom here. Progress update: This works perfect!!! I can have her out in the house and she doesn’t fly to the other birds now. Now the other birds fly to her cage and zazu flies away. I am at the point now where I can have them both out at the same time. Now I am watching for a refresher to teach my conure.

Thank you for training me! God bless you & yours

As I'm watching I have pinterest open looking at bird training stuff and who do I see? Dave and Jamie! 🥰 love it

taught one of my previous pigeons to do this to go back to his cage since he was hand shy. SO helpful. all bird owners need to teach this i swear down ❤

Im so glad you mentioned , stationing, I learned it from you guys, Dave and Jamie, and tought it to my bird, it really is a great tool for them to know, thanx again, then I showed my boyfriend that Jake knows stationing, wonderful thing they do need to know, I mean all parrots.♥️♥️♥️

Honestly, the very first thing that I thought of was the birds being hormonal. This is an amazing video and these methods are quite interesting!

Thanks for sharing your knowledge with us love your videos. 👍👍🇵🇷

I wish there was a master class closer to me!!!! I so wanna go!!!!

Another great masterclass! Shout out to the owner, who is doing a great job! You are a caring, sensitive and smart owner, and you have a smart bird. Thank you, Birdtricks, for this video. Stationing is very important to teach our birds, at least those that we let loose inside our homes. Because all birds are different, it's good to see many examples of how to go about training it. 👏

I don't know if you guys ever worked with a kakariki (red-crowned-parakeet) but this seems nearly impossible with them 😂Mine eats the reward while already aiming where she is going to fly next, their attention window is so incredibly small. I'm gonna try it anyway, never say never I guess hahaha

That’s a great bird!

Thank you this is something I have been super interested in. This was great to see!!

Oh, a Poicephalus!

Awesome class. Thanks for tips.

So cute!

Very nice so cute

Yay one of my favorite species!

Hello, I have been watching your videos for several years and I admire your techniques. I have 2 macaws. Zeke, a B&G, will be 29, on July 1st. I hand fed him, from a 4wk old chick. He is incredibly cuddly, loving, and he has the best sense of humor(yes, he's a very funny bird!). He talks a lot and only screams if he's warning me about an intruder in the back yard, or if the neighbors go into their back yard. My problem lies in my adopted/rescued, Harlequin hybrid. I've had her since 2005 and I've worked hard to get her to be cuddly and calm. She's a horrendous plucker, even though I provide 97" soft, cotton spring perches for her to destroy. And fresh towels daily, for her to shred apart. Aside from plucking, she screams every time I go into the kitchen to prepare their meals, or when I have to leave the room, for any reason. I have tried using a squirt bottle, but that's not even working anymore. She also freaks out when I take a shower in the middle of the day, so I have to shower when it's dark out. I'm sure that you already have numerous videos about this subject, plucking and screaming, so if you could direct me to the courses that are best for my situation, that would be excellent. One thing of note, is that both birds have their own 5' X 5' X 8' playpen, custom made, 100% manzanita, and beautiful works of art. Neither bird has a cage and they seem to love their playpens. They are across the room from one another, because they don't get along. Zeke is a DNA sexed male and I'm fairly certain that BeBe is a female. Would you recommend sexing her to find out if she is, in fact, female? I don't see how sexing could help the situation, as neither bird likes the other, and there's no chance that they would ever get together and groom one another. Thank you for taking the time to read about my dilemma! 🦜 💜 🦜

Was that a bird that swooped Dave's face just before 11:14? Fast little sucker 😂. Thanks for the video. I have a terrible time getting my macaw to station. She wants to be with me too much

Loved this video!

Her assumption that any interaction with another bird will end in a fight is a mini lesson in trauma. I think the biggest take away is how you worked through that moment and debriefed what actually happened.

I have a funny for you all. My first Budgie Angel is clicker conditioned. Sometimes I will ask her to come or step up and get some definace or hesitation from her. If I pull out the clicker though she will excitedly do as I have asked to get the click and reward 🤣

My conures kept attacking my Amazon, and she kept avoiding them. But when my male flew at her face, she nailed him. My birds go into their cages at 8 and eat their millet. Light go out at 9. There is a blackout blind and blackout curtain in each of the two windows in their room. As soon as the lights go out, they are quiet. The door opens and I turn on the light at 11 am and everyone says hi. My Amazon gets along with all my other birds but not my bonded pair of conures. That pair does not get along with any of my birds, not even the other Conure I have. They eat Roudybush and I make them a veggie mash. Just made a huge batch.

One actually acted out for food,so I suggested for them to feed the bird with aggression first and I also got to see the owners would spend more time with the other Birds get jealous too lol Birds got it

I haven't watched the full vid yet but right off the bat, I know that poicephalus species (senegals, meyers, cape parrots, red-bellied, etc.) are naturally VERY aggressive towards other birds. They are known to attack and even kill other birds frequently. I have to keep my senegal, Griffin, away from the other birds, including my larger eclectus because he will try to attack him. I have seen them get along with other poi species but generally speaking, they aren't usually good with other birds. There is always the exception. I am interested to see as the video goes on how you can work on this 💚

Very nice! Thank you. I am curious, what town or city are these folks from? I noticed the Sabres Sweatshirt; when I lived in Buffalo, NY I had the greatest Blue Fronted Amazon. There weren’t many of us back then. Lol.

What kind of treat are you providing?

Wait a second, I’ve watched tonsss of your videos in the last 2 weeks. Cage covers cause problems?

I want those carrier cages

Nice video

I’m recall training my bird and he just flies to me when I don’t call him so ima use this to teach him to station

I would have to see what Exactly is going on I have seen a bird reacting to the way the owners are

🙂

Nice and early

Heehee the bird is a lefty!

So....what if treats mean nothing to the bird?

Have you done any classes on keeping your bird off your head ? My Quaker is constantly on my head and I’ve tried different things stop it but ultimately he wins

I've been watching ima survivor sanctuary they have ostriches which they know nothing about poor things but do any of these tricks work for knowing hormonal ques, and to understanding the thing birds do or is this normally for parrots and such?

The parrot looks like a Meyers parrot

My birds will not eat the chop at all how can I get them to eat it I’ve rescued all of them and they have always been fed seed diet

👀

I’m going to try this with my African Gray and Senegal. My macaw can’t fly and already stays where I put her.

That looks alot like a meyers parrot.

Lol Jamie being rude look at her face 17:07

She takes so long to reinforce and loses opportunities, so hard to watch
