    I got my green cheeks to say hi by slightly waving the chopstick at her feet and when she would try to grab it with her foot she got the click on the treat. So it wasn't too long before. I just waved the chopstick in the air and she picked up her foot and now I can do it with my finger. This is before she was target trained so she wouldn't try to bite the target stick

    Well done great video. I enjoy the fact that you changed the training a little maybe a hi five instead of a wave ha ha Thankyou for not taking bird training so seriously it gives me a more realistic view that it’s a marathon not a sprint because I really do enjoy the training and love that my birds and I engage in each and everyday.

  • @KB-zp7ds
    @KB-zp7ds Před 3 lety

    You and your birds did great. Mango just know’s to look good, no tricks needed 😂. Yuki my Meyers parrot ( an only bird child) see’s our target stick, clicker and goes quite crazy as it’s the only time she gets her favourite treats, nut’s, ooh and the dreaded sunflower seeds, in very small amounts of course. I have to really hide the target stick, or she’ll grab it and think she’s done a wonderful job, and where’s my treat. Touch training very useful for lot’s of reasons, Birdtricks taught me well.
    I taught Yuki to wave, did the one foot step like you first, then slowly put a little more distance between my finger and her, and said “wave” everytime, holding treat in front of her so she looked at treat while she raised her foot, then hit the clicker quick, and she got treat.
    Yuki doesn’t know ‘high five’ though. 😉.
    Thankyou for sharing, thoroughly enjoyed seeing your beautiful birds. Take care.

  • @jenniferCastellano927
    @jenniferCastellano927 Před 2 lety

    Thanks for the tip about holding the treat above the head if the bird is biting when stepping up. My almost 18 year old sun Conure does this when I ask her to step up from a perch. I will have to try to see if it works.

  • @swissamerican1138
    @swissamerican1138 Před rokem

    I appreciate your content and love the channel! I have an 8 month old, female, sun conure who is a little sweetheart. She spends a lot of time out of her cage and is usually with me most of her day. I've taught her to wave, spin both directions, flip, hop to my hand and back to her perch. We're coming along really well with her harness training, too. She has the veg mix diet with pellets and we keep fruit to minimum and save millet and walnuts for her training. I have no intention to clip her wings but sadly she to came into my home 3 months ago with her wings clipped quite short. I hate to see a parrot with stubby, short wings. My question: Have you noticed much personality/temperament change as SCs mature? If yes, what should I watch for in the next year or two as my little 'Katie' grows up? I volunteer at a local parrot rescue where the women have told me stories of umbrella cockatoos and other parrots can change a great deal. Little Katie is my first sunny so your thoughts would be valuable.🦜💛🧡💚

    I have thought my Kiki Jonny to step up and round. But this week I am starting klicker. My Jonny is same like mango. Sorry I did not got the other ones name but she is same like our Kiki. Today Kiki sneaked out of her netting room and was in a neighbours tree. She did not come down at all. Finally had to climb a tree after 35 years and caught her. So I wan thinking to train her with klicker to come over to us when she flies out by mistake.

    I recommend to train one bird at a time and seperating them during sessions. It becomes less distracting for the bird and less competitive.

    @capturedbydaisy5446 Před 2 lety

    Love the video and I also have a Mango. He is 6 months, and all he learned so far is High 5 and touch the end of the stick THAT'S IT LOL. Its hard to train Mango because he doesnt like treats nor fruits nor veggies...ufffff which bird doesn't like treats? MINE OF COURSE. He is still a little afraid of me and others, however he is much better with me if he is away from his cage. Questions, how long it takes them to learn a new trick? and where did you got that LOVE TREE stand?

    • @bestflockingfriends
      @bestflockingfriends  Před 2 lety

      My birds didn’t “like” any of that until I changed their diet!! It took me 2 days of offering NO seed and providing the chop and pellets 24/7 for them to switch over and give it a try. You have to try going cold turkey NO seed for them to eat healthier. Try target training, the engagement will likely interest your bird and change of pace. The behavior around his cage is likely territorial and mine are also better away from the cages! New tricks can be formed in a few minutes and perfected over a few days. Train for just a few minutes! Not half an hour. They’ll engage better, and always end on a positive note!

    • @bestflockingfriends
      @bestflockingfriends  Před 2 lety

      We found our stands on marketplace lol but our local bird store has tons of them (Everything Birds in Oldsmar FL) I think you can order parrot safe perches off amazon also. Be sure to research SAFE wood types! Acidic woods can be toxic for them.

      The food is called a chop, it’s made out of all kinds of vegetables and bird pellets, and tye device is called a clicker. It helps with training because when the bird hears the click it knows it’s because it did the right thing, when you out the stick and the clicker is allows a Target/Reward type of training

      I’m sure that’s the principle of her reasoning - that seeds are high fat. I didn’t have a long conversation with her about it because we don’t always see eye to eye due to my relationship with birdtricks and support of their diet and lifestyle habits.
