Please Read! If you are going to get a kakariki please do focus on the heart disease section. This is very true. My kakariki was a present. I hadn't researched for it. I researched for a budgie. My kakariki then didn't get the right treatment because there isn't much information online. This is a great video! And helped me understand about my old bird a lot! Thank you so much for clearing this up! It has made me settle from his death! Your amazing love of pets!
ive recently gotten one as i woke up one morning and it was just in my house, as i live in south africa i knew it was a pet, i did all i could to try find the original owner and nothing, so i decided i was going to keep it and this will help a lot to keep charlie happy for as long as possible, thank you
I absolutely love these videos you do about these smaller, lesser known birds!! You've really piqued my curiosity as to what kinds of birds would be most ideal for my future aviary. Thank you so much for these videos!!
Everything you said is 100% true!! We love our guy, but he is a super messy eater and BUSY! He's out of his cage whenever we're home because he needs to roam around and yes, get into everything! Eats the edge of books and magazines, chews on the edge of wood cabinets or window sills, so we need to give a lot of soft wood or yucca chew toys. He is on a constant lookout for a girlfriend and regurgitates on anything shiny. He gets really possessive over certain objects and tries to bite our feet all the time :D
Still my favorite bird so far. They're so weird, but I can't get over their adorable noises they make. I finally managed to find someone who has hand fed cream and blue kakarikis, so now I'm getting two more to add to my flock soon ❤️
My kakariki is around 3 years old, and he is so smart, he talks all the time,but its very nice. I’m working on developing a better connection with him. We rescued buggies and he really loves listening to them talk alllll day
I’m so glad this video exists. I was thinking of getting a kakariki but I could never find any actual information on them, anything I did find was so vague. Thank you for making this, now I’m definitely going to get one!
I miss my little blue kakariki so much. Sammy was a beautiful little girl who we only had for a year or so. She laid a couple of eggs but it was just too much for her. The third egg got stuck, we found her very unwell one morning but it was too late. The next morning we got the call from our vet to say they'd done everything they could but that was it, she was gone. Kakarikis are stunning and such gentle birds.
I love kakarikis! The sounds they make are so distinct and honestly I'm not sure I would be okay with hearing that all the time. I'm sure their activity level might be a little much for me, too. I actually have 4 bourkes and your videos really helped me a lot with figuring out what birds were right for me. I started off with just 2 but quickly realized I'd made the right choice, so about a year later I added 2 more to the flock! Now I have 3 lovely extroverted boys and 1 adorable introverted girl. :) I always enjoy your videos and admire how you manage to keep so many pets happy and healthy! I feel like 4 birds is a lot for me! :D
I have 2 :) they Are super curious!!! But they get bored quickly and you have to give them A LOT of freeflight. But since they can get tame and are interested in everyting, even our trash, its fun to watch them. With kakaraki it never gets Boring lemme tell you. But they dont get like 100% tame.. i know a lot of ppl who have them
Awe I’m sorry about sizzle :( I recently lost my lovebird wasabi he was a Dutch blue and was only a couple months old. He also had passed away because of a heart condition. Btw l love your birds and your videos always make my day!!
Ive had mine for probably a year and half now. He is such a blessing. At times i think he has said words. Just not clear. But he is lucky he is alive. The part about the getting into everything. Well one of those was a door that shut behind me. Lost his bottom beak. Oh my was i beside myself. Lost the whole bottom beak. The vet was not hopeful. All he could suggest was to feed him wet food. He is such a smart bird. Was not keen on that so he started to eat from the spoon. Instead of me trying to syringe it in. Was not keen on that because i felt his top beak was getting undermined. So yea i make sure he has coffee ground seeds. But honestly i only do it just in case. Because he eats nearly everything like normal. Has a very strong tongue. I just have to make sure i cut his top beak back with a bit of a point. Been like that for 8mths probably. Never grew back. On the funny side though he has a romantic thing going with my little Turquoise. She is still with him.... Tobias the budgie is her side piece ;). But she has refused sexual activity with my Kakariki Since he cant do the throw up thing. haha. But recently she has started to let him. Its absolutely ridiculous as he is 3 times her size. Sorry this is long. Anyway not only is this Turk letting him, the budgie she has been trying to lure my female conure in on her debauched ways haha. No eggs yet so not even sure the Turk is a female.
Out of all your flock, I’m obsessed with Summer! I’m so glad you highlighted this species. Love how she scratches her food like a chicken. Adorable chubby lil doll. Also, I love watching Monty trying to boss the whole flock.. even from across the room. hahahaha
I love this bird. They are so cute and playful - with a charming laugh. Also, being a ground parrot from New Zealand (a cold climate with few predators) they are not very heat tolerate, love investigating, and are very trusting.
Thanks for the video, it helped me a lot when I was deciding on which bird to get! But, I gotta clarify one thing: nope, the female isn't loud at all. Sometimes, she would be loud very briefly, but usually she's doing cute little sounds. The male though... he IS loud. And he DOES continuous sounds all over again. In Germany, they're called "goat parakeets" because their sound kind of resembles the sound a goat makes. I call him my little goat machine gun LOL
💛🌟 🐥🐣 Hello, thank you for this very informative video. Gorgeous sweet birds!!♥️🦜♥️🙂 What lucky birds to have you!! Very nice set up! Thank you for sharing!!🎉
Hi I’m the third to comment yay btw I love u soooo much and I wanted to tell u that ur not like some ppl who take birds as a beautiful creatures to keep as living decor u take them and take good care of them that’s the best thing about u🙃like if u agree
I love your hanging play area with the spiral rope perch and others stuff! I saw it in the beginning of the video. I want to do something like that when we get a new house with a bird room!
I have a smol cute yellow green red Kakeriki and she is the cutest thing and she follows y’a around like a little doge and she’s only 3 months old SUCH A CUTE BIRB
I loved watching your Kakarikis.That was sooo sweet watching your little girl eat with her foot , just as my Timneh does.I had 2 Kakarikis a while ago for a few months.They were babies.One of my friends went on vacation and askes me to take care of them for a few months. I spoon fed them both . They had yellow heads with an all green body, I believe.They were awfuly cute. I just thoroughly enjoyed watching your Kakariki .It reminded me of the 2 little cuties i had.They seemed like they would be very easy to tame and bond.I love to hear you talk and watch all of your birdies, its alway very informative and i always learn something.Thank you soo much for sharing .Take care bye for now , be safe.
I loved this video! Summer is adorable and reminds me of my Kakariki Ricky so much! They are like twins! I was wondering if Summer frequently does this bowing gesture in one spot for 30 seconds-1 minute when Kakariki’s “present” to their mates although there is no male kakariki around. I noticed my Kakariki does this often and at first I thought it might’ve been tail bobbing but after lots of tests and taking her to the vet she’s perfectly healthy. FYI - My Kakariki is 3 years old.
The Best Birds! I had a Male Kakariki, and he was so well bonded with my Family! It was literally as if he was a Human a because he understood me and he understood my family. He knew he was a part of the family, and he knew his name very well (Kaka). Sadly his lifespan was short he was 4 years of age and he passed away in an accident. I miss him very much... The most Curious, Mischievous Birds: Kakariki!
I had a olive pied kakariki, she sadly passed away this summer from what the vet assumed was a heart attack (never did obduction as I was too sad so I just wanted to burry her). I have a very fun Pied Boy who is such a curious little guy. He is very playful! They are such a wonderful species to have.
@@Loveofpets I am not quite sure, I bought her in a pet shop and when I asked them if they knew her age they said that she was there for over 3 years. I sadly only had her for a year. She was very traumatized by hands, but she loved hanging out with my budgie. She used to land on my hand occasionally. Sadly we had a very stressful situation here such as earthquakes and I think that took a toll on her :( I miss her daily! She was a very sweet bird
@@Loveofpets My new Kak I got from someone who was supposed to breed him but gave up on it. I am so glad he ended up with me because he has such a fun personality. Would be a shame if he was only for breeding when he is so playful and curious. His cage had no toys back there but he loves playing with foraging toys. Makes me sad to think he could have lived his life with no toys :(
I think my kakariki is secretly a cockatiel. She's so loud she picks up on words and phrases so quickly. She yells at my mother when she comes into my room. And in the morning lol she is so loud-
@@Loveofpets well I also forgot to mention- She attacks my mom 👀 And mashes together all the words and noises she knows while attacking her Then she screams her own name lol
Chickens! Yes! I had a female kakariki who sadly died after 4 rough years :c she suffered egg laying and broke her foot. Thanks to bad doctors we had to amputate it. With all the pills her body had a lot of problems, she had bad feathers and at the end she got respiratory illness. I was healing her, she lost her voice and at the end she died all of sudden just in hour.. I guess either heart or any other organ just stopped working, thats it :c she was a pretty warrior T.T After almost half year I just got a male kak :3 just a day ago. I am afraid he is a mix of red and orange headed kak (he is yellow, but his read is small and has some kind of gradient to yellow) but he is super energetic, he tried vegies today and I hope he will get on healthy diet very very soon :> your parrot room is just a dream for me, good job!
Me again lol... So i just want to say i buy new canary 6 months old. His name is Mio. His name is Mio because i remember your bird Rio. Rest in peace, Rio! 😉
Love your videos! :) I have a video request; What type of bird(s) would you recommend for apartment living, with neighbors (sound-levels) in mind? Also, I'd love to see a video of just different meals/snacks/food bowls you prepare for your birds. :) Thank you! Happy Easter to you and your birds! ❤️
A little hello from France ! I love your videos, I'd love to have a bird and looking at all your videos is helping make my choice, thought not for now since I live in a little flat but my dream would be to have a room like yours ! Seems like paradise for me ahah. I would probably go for Lennies or Kakarikis I was wondering how long do you spend with them everyday ? Do you like just sit in your bird room ?
Your information is wonderful and your bird room is amazing. I would love to see a tour of your bird room along with the links of the ropes and things you have on your wall. Also how do you keep everything clean? What products do you use for cleaning?
Hi, I do have some your videos. Here is a link to perches and more that I use in my birdroom Bird Room Ideas www.amazon.com/shop/loveofpets?listId=2UIQ5JLHZZBKE&ref=idea_share_inf Here is my birdroom playlist Welcome to my Bird Room | Birdroom Tours: czcams.com/play/PL6uTBIckTWD5XDkb8EVXsxolU7N0gFx3o.html
I would never house different kinds of parrot or other bird in the same cage...that will end in disaster. If you have a large aviary you can mix budgies, zebra Finches or cockatiels with kakariki.
Wow , your video was so informative, thank you so much. I have been wanting to buy a Kaikriki for some time now. But have not found a breeder with the yellow ones. The pet shop had I almost got that pair. But was hesitated, didn’t know in witch cage thy will be best in. Now with all your info I want to make a decision, I don’t let my birds out the cages. Maybe one day. I have a room for them but I use that room also for my sowing. Decisions....🧐🤦🏼♀️......❤️🌹❤️🌹
Thank you for your video. I haven't understand everything as I am German. But I do know much more than before and understand much more. My family got a yellow fronted parakeet, firstly to foster but than till her end of live, when I was 13. We only had budgies before and didn't know that species beforehand. So she felt lonely without a partner and wanted to have her one. We were told, that it is a red fronted parakeet. (For the explanation, they are called differently in Germany so that you only really know which one is which by their behaviour, at least if you don't know like I did till today, the English translation or just right knowledge. In German the yellow fronted parakeet is something like a jumping parakeet as they are more often on the ground, and the red fronted parakeet is something like a goat parakeet, as they are making sounds near to those of goats.) Soo by this mistake we got her a young red fronted parakeet as a partner. His name was Strolchi. We got him only two weeks after we did get to know that Susi the First is living for us forever. First Susi got our old bigger budgie cage and Strolchi a little smaller one. When they did fly together and interacted well, we decided to get them together into the smaller cage. It was only around 2 weeks that we got Strolchi. I am the youngest in my family, so I was considered taking care of Strolchi, so that Susi gets back first into her cage. But she know that something was going on and wasn't tamed either. Strolchi was neither. In this process 3 taking care of Susi and I alone on Strolchi he did something making me cry. He landed on my head ❤️. Finally they were together in the cage. From this moment on we showed Strolchi, that he is safe landing on us. Susi passed away and we got Susi the Second from the same person we'd gotten Strolchi. They were absolutely perfect for each other. They tried to breed and everything was going very well. This Susi wasn't sure if she could really trust us and was sometimes even screeching, in the first time, if Strolchi landed on us. Strolchi got more and more tamed. He always chose me or my Mom for the next greater step. And he loved the "elevator" we were getting him out of his cage by give him one finger than taking him out we were moving slowly our finger up and down and even the whole arm. Eventually he flew than but sometimes you saw him enjoying it fullest. Than he started to talk. First it was a distinct "Komm doch" (Come here), later he called my brother and my Mom fully understandable even for outsiders by their names (Mom as Mama) only my oldest brother and myself he wasn't able to phrase. They had three syllables. But he now decided to call us all first with a name and than a Komm doch. It took as quite some time to find out, that calling Komm doch without something behind was ment for my oldest brother and calling Komm doch with a screech of three syllables for me. Easy to say: I am missing him dearest! Eventhough he passed away only being a bit over 2 years with us. So why is this story so long? I was asking myself over the past 13 years why he died so early... And now, after watching this video, I think the answer is: because of two reasons. Firstly my mom had gotten really ill and was only now and than at home, we kids never till he passed. My mom told me, that his last sentence has been "Mama bleib doch hier" Mom please stay. And the second reason might be the heat at that day. Before this video I had been a bit angry with myself not trying to keep them with at least one of us till mum came back home, eventhough at least once a day one of us looked after them for over an hour. Now I know, that this blame has been to much. We should have known much more about them. This is perhaps the biggest reason over all. But he was happy with us and my family, and maybe I the most, with him. He is still in my heart.
Oh and they also loved bathing, all three. But we never had to clip their nails. They had real wood everywhere and no plastic inclusive the bark. They had a sand place too. They did fly everyday for several hours. And their cage (we build specially for them so they don't have to be in the budgie cage) had been 1.5m x 1m and 4m.
There's a few instances in this video where you look a little frazzled. I'm guessing from all the "jump cuts" we didn't witness and you chasing your kakariki around 😄
I have a really important question! My kakariki had a tail feather pulled out by my Conure, after that he seemed fine, but today i went to pick my kakariki up as he cant fly and he lost 4 tail feathers as he slid out my hand His name is red, hes not yet tame either but this concerned me greatly ♡
Hi, the feathers will grow back unless he has a disease like beak and feathers disease etc. Sometimes with stress and handling the bird the feathers will fall out as a defense mechanism. Let him sit on your hand and avoid holding him in your hand as they don't like it and you could damage the feathers.
Hello! I also have a yellow kakariki, she looks so similar to yours! Her name is "little lemon", in Dutch: Citroentje :) she is about 8 to 9 months old and since june, she has laid 16 eggs! I've been sooo worried about it because she does not have a mate (due to little space to hold 2 of them). She gets a lot of free play and flight time around the house and started laying eggs in the laundry bin. I already contacted the vet and she said that if she doesn't show different behavior or sickness symptoms, she should be fine. But I'm still worried since she keeps on laying eggs... She is still very active, bubbly, shows absolute no signs of sickness at all. But still, I would love to hear your opinion. I don't let her enter the laundry bin anymore so now she just lays the eggs in her cage. She has no nesting material at all. I really hope you can help me to stop panicking! 🙏🏽❤️
That's alot of eggs especially for a young bird. I suggest to let her lay on the eggs until she is no longer interested otherwise she will keep laying. Provide calcium like a cuttlebone, foods higher in calcium or liquid or powdered calcium for birds. Be careful as they can overdose on calcium. Take everything away that looks like a nest. Put her to bed earlier to shorten daylight hours. If she doesn't stop laying eggs ask the vet about lupron injections.
@@Loveofpets thank you so much for your reply! I've already tried to leave some eggs so she could lay on them but she shows absolutely no interest in them... So the vet said I should continue taking them away. I will put her to sleep earlier, hopefully that will help. Should I throw a towel over the cage? Because now, she sleeps without it. She has 2 cuttlebones in her cage and I provide pellet alimentation and fruits and veggies aside that. Sunflower seeds as a treat, maybe 2 or 3 a day. It's very peculiar right? She is sooo fit and active and still lays so many eggs, I really hope she will stop laying them soon 🙏🏽 thank you!
Is she eating the cuttlebone? Offer Kale, Swiss chard or broccoli as they are higher in calcium then other greens. Is your vet an avian vet? If it's light in your house then cover her. Or put her cage in a dark quiet room for sleep or use a sleep cage.
@@Loveofpets yes she eats plenty of the cuttlebone so that's why I try not to worry too much about her. My vet is an avian vet. I will try to put a blanket over her cage so she sleeps enough. How many hours should I provide darkness for her? Thank you so much for your help! ❤️
I just received a turquoise kakariki for my birthday. We’ve always had birds growing up and it’s a passion of mine now in adulthood. I have two Indian ringnecks as well. One I personally raised from 3 weeks old. They are kept in a separate rooms though so no worries. I have the opportunity to have a mate for my kakariki but I really enjoy pet birds. I’m told it’s better for them to have a mate. If that is the case I would do it for him, happily. Does anyone have an opinion to share on whether they are better off paired, or would be just as happy single as a pet?
Im willing to buy a pair of kakarikes but im so nervous to buy a two females or males so can you explain more about how should i know the gender please and thank you so much for this wonderful video ❤️

My kakariki is currently sitting on my curtains... He's a crazy boy🤣
Great video. In Serbian language they are called kozice which means little goats It is because of the sound that you described they make.
In danish they are called a Gedeparakit, which means Goatparakeet. :)

I was wondering if Summer frequently does this bowing gesture in one spot for 30 seconds-1 minute when Kakariki’s “present” to their mates although there is no male kakariki around. I noticed my Kakariki does this often and at first I thought it might’ve been tail bobbing but after lots of tests and taking her to the vet she’s perfectly healthy. FYI - My Kakariki is 3 years old.
the best to you and your birds
There she goes!
The Best Birds! I had a Male Kakariki, and he was so well bonded with my Family! It was literally as if he was a Human a because he understood me and he understood my family. He knew he was a part of the family, and he knew his name very well (Kaka).
Sadly his lifespan was short he was 4 years of age and he passed away in an accident. I miss him very much...
The most Curious, Mischievous Birds: Kakariki!
Lovely video
Very beautiful bird. Hello from Greece 🇬🇷 Alexandra.
Mine just goes "KRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR" every 5 minutes 😂
I had a olive pied kakariki, she sadly passed away this summer from what the vet assumed was a heart attack (never did obduction as I was too sad so I just wanted to burry her). I have a very fun Pied Boy who is such a curious little guy. He is very playful! They are such a wonderful species to have.
Sorry for your loss, how old was she when she passed?
@@Loveofpets I am not quite sure, I bought her in a pet shop and when I asked them if they knew her age they said that she was there for over 3 years. I sadly only had her for a year. She was very traumatized by hands, but she loved hanging out with my budgie. She used to land on my hand occasionally. Sadly we had a very stressful situation here such as earthquakes and I think that took a toll on her :( I miss her daily! She was a very sweet bird
@@Loveofpets My new Kak I got from someone who was supposed to breed him but gave up on it. I am so glad he ended up with me because he has such a fun personality. Would be a shame if he was only for breeding when he is so playful and curious. His cage had no toys back there but he loves playing with foraging toys. Makes me sad to think he could have lived his life with no toys :(
Liked the vid., thanks.
Thank you very much for this great information. You did a very good job again on this.
Want truely have a beautiful bird.
I think my kakariki is secretly a cockatiel. She's so loud she picks up on words and phrases so quickly. She yells at my mother when she comes into my room. And in the morning lol she is so loud-
She sounds like a sweety pie. She may be telling your mom to go away or she could be excited. -
@@Loveofpets well I also forgot to mention-
She attacks my mom 👀
And mashes together all the words and noises she knows while attacking her
Then she screams her own name lol
Thnak you so much :)
Thanks for the good advice. 👍
Nice information
Love your bird
It was very helpful. Thank you!
Beautiful bird
Notice how she said "some" seed (when telling about what they eat). Their diets should includes lots of (bird-safe) veggies and some fruit!
Thanks you very informative
Nice
Thx i have 2 babies ,,love them
Thankyou🙏🏽❤️
You’re welcome 😊
Chickens! Yes!
I had a female kakariki who sadly died after 4 rough years :c she suffered egg laying and broke her foot. Thanks to bad doctors we had to amputate it. With all the pills her body had a lot of problems, she had bad feathers and at the end she got respiratory illness. I was healing her, she lost her voice and at the end she died all of sudden just in hour.. I guess either heart or any other organ just stopped working, thats it :c she was a pretty warrior T.T
After almost half year I just got a male kak :3 just a day ago. I am afraid he is a mix of red and orange headed kak (he is yellow, but his read is small and has some kind of gradient to yellow) but he is super energetic, he tried vegies today and I hope he will get on healthy diet very very soon :> your parrot room is just a dream for me, good job!
i hav a pair of these green though funny birds so cute.
Me again lol... So i just want to say i buy new canary 6 months old. His name is Mio. His name is Mio because i remember your bird Rio. Rest in peace, Rio! 😉
Love your videos! :) I have a video request; What type of bird(s) would you recommend for apartment living, with neighbors (sound-levels) in mind? Also, I'd love to see a video of just different meals/snacks/food bowls you prepare for your birds. :) Thank you! Happy Easter to you and your birds! ❤️
I will do my best to make those videos. Thanks for asking
Thank you so much
My kakiriki constantly says what you doing, peekaboo, who’s a pretty boy and pepper (my dog)
brooo this girl has EVERY kinda bird for real
Summer is so cute. I hope you have a Happy Thanksgiving
A little hello from France ! I love your videos, I'd love to have a bird and looking at all your videos is helping make my choice, thought not for now since I live in a little flat but my dream would be to have a room like yours ! Seems like paradise for me ahah. I would probably go for Lennies or Kakarikis
I was wondering how long do you spend with them everyday ? Do you like just sit in your bird room ?
Haha they scratch like chickens. :) sweeties
I Have the canary bird but he is scared. I Will not give up. I will do everything to give him the trust.❤️
Hi😉
Your information is wonderful and your bird room is amazing. I would love to see a tour of your bird room along with the links of the ropes and things you have on your wall. Also how do you keep everything clean? What products do you use for cleaning?
Hi, I do have some your videos.
Here is a link to perches and more that I use in my birdroom Bird Room Ideas

I got 3, they can be little shits but they sweet too just dont let them get too close to your ears
thx for info and vid
Do you have any information about keeping kakarikis with other birds, if they can and what other parrots can be housed in the same cage with one
I would never house different kinds of parrot or other bird in the same cage...that will end in disaster. If you have a large aviary you can mix budgies, zebra Finches or cockatiels with kakariki.
l love ur videos could u do short vid on beginner birds for retired older people , if not thx anyways
I will try my best. Thanks for asking
Wow , your video was so informative, thank you so much. I have been wanting to buy a Kaikriki for some time now. But have not found a breeder with the yellow ones. The pet shop had I almost got that pair. But was hesitated, didn’t know in witch cage thy will be best in. Now with all your info I want to make a decision, I don’t let my birds out the cages. Maybe one day. I have a room for them but I use that room also for my sowing. Decisions....🧐🤦🏼♀️......❤️🌹❤️🌹
Glad you enjoyed the video. You can get the Double Flight Cage for them and they will have plenty of room to fly back and forth and play.
Wait so Kakarikis can chill with Cockatiels? They're not aggressive at all?
In my opinion when they are hormonal, they are little demons😂😈
I mean i don't notice the difference in mine
😏😂🤣🤣🤣🤣
My boy knows when it's that time of the month 😏😅😂
Wow my girl is just beautiful when she's hormonal. Actually she's an angel all the time
Can you do video Pointing out the best and the worst birds as pets.
I will add it to my list of videos to make. Thanks for asking
@@Loveofpets thanks 😊
Thank you for your video. I haven't understand everything as I am German. But I do know much more than before and understand much more. My family got a yellow fronted parakeet, firstly to foster but than till her end of live, when I was 13. We only had budgies before and didn't know that species beforehand. So she felt lonely without a partner and wanted to have her one. We were told, that it is a red fronted parakeet. (For the explanation, they are called differently in Germany so that you only really know which one is which by their behaviour, at least if you don't know like I did till today, the English translation or just right knowledge. In German the yellow fronted parakeet is something like a jumping parakeet as they are more often on the ground, and the red fronted parakeet is something like a goat parakeet, as they are making sounds near to those of goats.) Soo by this mistake we got her a young red fronted parakeet as a partner. His name was Strolchi. We got him only two weeks after we did get to know that Susi the First is living for us forever. First Susi got our old bigger budgie cage and Strolchi a little smaller one. When they did fly together and interacted well, we decided to get them together into the smaller cage. It was only around 2 weeks that we got Strolchi. I am the youngest in my family, so I was considered taking care of Strolchi, so that Susi gets back first into her cage. But she know that something was going on and wasn't tamed either. Strolchi was neither. In this process 3 taking care of Susi and I alone on Strolchi he did something making me cry. He landed on my head ❤️. Finally they were together in the cage. From this moment on we showed Strolchi, that he is safe landing on us. Susi passed away and we got Susi the Second from the same person we'd gotten Strolchi. They were absolutely perfect for each other. They tried to breed and everything was going very well. This Susi wasn't sure if she could really trust us and was sometimes even screeching, in the first time, if Strolchi landed on us. Strolchi got more and more tamed. He always chose me or my Mom for the next greater step. And he loved the "elevator" we were getting him out of his cage by give him one finger than taking him out we were moving slowly our finger up and down and even the whole arm. Eventually he flew than but sometimes you saw him enjoying it fullest. Than he started to talk. First it was a distinct "Komm doch" (Come here), later he called my brother and my Mom fully understandable even for outsiders by their names (Mom as Mama) only my oldest brother and myself he wasn't able to phrase. They had three syllables. But he now decided to call us all first with a name and than a Komm doch. It took as quite some time to find out, that calling Komm doch without something behind was ment for my oldest brother and calling Komm doch with a screech of three syllables for me. Easy to say: I am missing him dearest! Eventhough he passed away only being a bit over 2 years with us. So why is this story so long? I was asking myself over the past 13 years why he died so early... And now, after watching this video, I think the answer is: because of two reasons. Firstly my mom had gotten really ill and was only now and than at home, we kids never till he passed. My mom told me, that his last sentence has been "Mama bleib doch hier" Mom please stay. And the second reason might be the heat at that day. Before this video I had been a bit angry with myself not trying to keep them with at least one of us till mum came back home, eventhough at least once a day one of us looked after them for over an hour. Now I know, that this blame has been to much. We should have known much more about them. This is perhaps the biggest reason over all. But he was happy with us and my family, and maybe I the most, with him. He is still in my heart.
Oh and they also loved bathing, all three. But we never had to clip their nails. They had real wood everywhere and no plastic inclusive the bark. They had a sand place too. They did fly everyday for several hours. And their cage (we build specially for them so they don't have to be in the budgie cage) had been 1.5m x 1m and 4m.
There's a few instances in this video where you look a little frazzled. I'm guessing from all the "jump cuts" we didn't witness and you chasing your kakariki around 😄
That's for sure 🤣
Super ....🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
How to stop them from biting, some hurts,thanks
In Hungary, we call them goat parrot. 🦜❤️
I had kākāriki and budgies in the past. Kākāriki are so much more active, or maybe it is just my Kauri was)
If got pair of kakkerietjie but they always have just 1 baby why
I have a really important question! My kakariki had a tail feather pulled out by my Conure, after that he seemed fine, but today i went to pick my kakariki up as he cant fly and he lost 4 tail feathers as he slid out my hand
His name is red, hes not yet tame either but this concerned me greatly ♡
Hi, the feathers will grow back unless he has a disease like beak and feathers disease etc.
Sometimes with stress and handling the bird the feathers will fall out as a defense mechanism.
Let him sit on your hand and avoid holding him in your hand as they don't like it and you could damage the feathers.
Hello! I also have a yellow kakariki, she looks so similar to yours! Her name is "little lemon", in Dutch: Citroentje :) she is about 8 to 9 months old and since june, she has laid 16 eggs! I've been sooo worried about it because she does not have a mate (due to little space to hold 2 of them). She gets a lot of free play and flight time around the house and started laying eggs in the laundry bin. I already contacted the vet and she said that if she doesn't show different behavior or sickness symptoms, she should be fine. But I'm still worried since she keeps on laying eggs... She is still very active, bubbly, shows absolute no signs of sickness at all. But still, I would love to hear your opinion. I don't let her enter the laundry bin anymore so now she just lays the eggs in her cage. She has no nesting material at all. I really hope you can help me to stop panicking! 🙏🏽❤️
That's alot of eggs especially for a young bird.
I suggest to let her lay on the eggs until she is no longer interested otherwise she will keep laying.
Provide calcium like a cuttlebone, foods higher in calcium or liquid or powdered calcium for birds.
Be careful as they can overdose on calcium.
Take everything away that looks like a nest. Put her to bed earlier to shorten daylight hours.
If she doesn't stop laying eggs ask the vet about lupron injections.
@@Loveofpets thank you so much for your reply! I've already tried to leave some eggs so she could lay on them but she shows absolutely no interest in them... So the vet said I should continue taking them away. I will put her to sleep earlier, hopefully that will help. Should I throw a towel over the cage? Because now, she sleeps without it. She has 2 cuttlebones in her cage and I provide pellet alimentation and fruits and veggies aside that. Sunflower seeds as a treat, maybe 2 or 3 a day. It's very peculiar right? She is sooo fit and active and still lays so many eggs, I really hope she will stop laying them soon 🙏🏽 thank you!
Is she eating the cuttlebone?
Offer Kale, Swiss chard or broccoli as they are higher in calcium then other greens.
Is your vet an avian vet?
If it's light in your house then cover her. Or put her cage in a dark quiet room for sleep or use a sleep cage.
@@Loveofpets yes she eats plenty of the cuttlebone so that's why I try not to worry too much about her. My vet is an avian vet. I will try to put a blanket over her cage so she sleeps enough. How many hours should I provide darkness for her? Thank you so much for your help! ❤️
I just received a turquoise kakariki for my birthday. We’ve always had birds growing up and it’s a passion of mine now in adulthood. I have two Indian ringnecks as well. One I personally raised from 3 weeks old. They are kept in a separate rooms though so no worries. I have the opportunity to have a mate for my kakariki but I really enjoy pet birds. I’m told it’s better for them to have a mate. If that is the case I would do it for him, happily. Does anyone have an opinion to share on whether they are better off paired, or would be just as happy single as a pet?
Im willing to buy a pair of kakarikes but im so nervous to buy a two females or males so can you explain more about how should i know the gender please and thank you so much for this wonderful video ❤️
