  • Here is how to teach your bird to fly to you or how to flight train your bird! Flight training your bird or recall training your bird is great exercise for your birds! In this video, I'll go over how to teach your bird to fly to you on command so, by the end of this video, you should be able to recall train your bird! Teaching your bird to fly to you is a rewarding experience, both for you and your birdie! Training your bird to fly to you will also come in handy if they've accidentally flown out where you would then need to retrieve them. Have fun while recall training your parrot!

    My 2 months old cockatiel learned to fly to me in half a day. His wings were clipped (3 feathers were cut short on each side) but he can still fly. He is really smart and learns fast.

    my bird came clipped, and now, she only has a few more clipped feathers that she needs to grow back, and can fly almost all over the place. she’s been flying into high places like the curtain rod and some hanging lights and not knowing how to get down, so i’ve started teaching her to come to me on command. this video is easy to follow and memorize.

    This was very helpful, I'm still in the process of getting my budgie conformable on my hand but once he is I'll be sure to train him recall. He's already learnt target training, spin and to shake my finger so I don't think he'll find it too difficult :) would you be able to do a video on how to get your bird onto pellets? Bill has started to eat his veg consistently now but won't touch his pellets :(

      My conure is growing his in too, he’s getting better like he can fly up now a little bit and farther distances but he still has some growing to do. He can only fly when he jumps off of his cage since it gives him a good drop but I’m excited for him to actually learn to fly since he keeps flying onto the floor and screams for me to pick him up lol

      @Gissell Gomez - Oh my goodness, it took 11 months for the flight feathers to grow back? :( I got my budgie (recently) at a Petco and I asked how long it would take for his feathers to grow and the employee (who obviously really didn't know) told me it would take one month. I knew that wasn't true because I had researched enough to know that the feathers take a while to re-grow. I was thinking it might be more like 3 months or so. Yikes! I can tell that being clipped is making him even more scared to leave his cage :(.

    Helpful for my older girl who has flown plenty before and is used to using a stick for target training.
    However I'm having an issue getting this to work for my younger girl who was deathly afraid of sticks for some reason. Since she would run from sticks, I was using my finger to get her to touch for target training, and now she is still trying to continue to touch my finger rather than jumping to it so I can teach her the fly to me on command, as well as build up the muscles. I know she can fly as she has done so any time she is scared while on top of her cage, like when I was trying target training with a stick. But she still doesn't have the muscle built up enough, and doesn't come to me on command, which is what I'm wanting to teach her to do.

    I had a female conure named Lola for 9 years from age 9 to age 18 she was the sweetest and mix most moody little lady. I am learning so much from your channel and it is making me realize that doing basic research wasn’t enough and that I needed to do more. Lola passed away from the Smokey air during the wildfires in Oregon last year but since then I did more research and also got employed so I could provide more for my pets and I ended up buying a little sun conure in March this year and I named him Frankie he’s a sweet spastic guy I love him to death! He is my best friend and I am learning so much from your videos about toys and foraging and training it is so helpful! My boy is still growing in his flight wings but I will be coming back to your channel for sure once he grows in his wings!! I just wanted to say Thankyou because even though I have more knowledge than when I had my previous bird there is always more to learn and I’m just so thankful I came across your channel! I hope you and your birdies have a wonderful day or night and I thank you all for showing talent and demonstrating tricks and tips for us all!

After watching this video I have learned that flying is something I need to work with him on but my other problem is that he is CLINGY and doesn't like standing on anything but me or my son...help!

    I have a question, my (i think) almlst 2 or 3 year old cockatiel whenever i show him treats to just step up he just comes at me and bits really hard and he just dosnt seem interested in the millet when i hold it, his everyday food is all seeds with sunflowers and all, hes really interested in plain cereal is it okay for me to use it as a treat

    This is really helpful. My budgie flew out of his cage when I was trying to get him comfy on my hand but I have a dog so I had to put the dog away and I have a big house so she went everywhere and she won’t get on my hanf without a treat 😕

    My sun conure has just got her flight feathers back from first clipping...she has been flying back and forth from cage to me for a week now...into other rooms and around corners...I saved on treats...but I still worry if she ever zooms up a tree if I could call her down
