hey! lovebirds esp matured ones can take quite a long time to get aquainted and to trust you. usually those that is already a pair will naturally stick to each other and bond for life, it can be difficult to bond, but not saying or putting you down, alot of effort is needed for them to trust you. i have a friend, her lovie took 3 years to finally give in to her. but if you show ur heart and have alot of patience im sure it will work out. start with hand feeding them food to bond to you.
Hi Jessy, i usually dont have sunflower seeds in my bird's diet, and only use for training.. sunflower seeds are like catnip to cats. so its all started with me teaching how to turn upside down when i saw him doing it in his cage, so i placed him on my finger and showed the seed below so he will reach it, and only giving him the seed once he reaches the top of the finger. from then he more or less got the message to "follow the seed " Its pretty hard to explain in words!
My bird isn't too open to new things since I never taught him young. I'm slowly teaching him how to handle new things, he's making slow progress, and he's showing more curiosity than fear now!
aww how adorable! he is so cute & very clever. I miss owning a bird! those and rabbits are my fave animals! some day, i will have some rabbits, lovebirds & parrots & i think i will train my birds to do tricks like this. it would be so awesome
I was just going "awwwhh" throughout this whole thing. My family have had 1 generation of love birds since before I was even born, all peach faced and sadly their last children passed away but now we're going to start an all new generation and we're getting a few week old love birds from a pet store very soon (peach faced) I can't wait!
thank you for your kind words franz! biko is wing clipped for safety as i stay high rise :O lovebirds are naturally active little bodies! haha! Biko is coming to 3 years old this april. oh! what coloration are they!
Awesome both of you, just loved the music and Bikos tricks very fun to watch, you should be so proud of all your time you have spent teaching such a clever bird and you can just see how much fun Biko is having, just like extra cool playtime with you :)
Great job Sabrina and Biko!! We loved your video. Can Biko fly? We've got two lovebirds, too. They can do some tricks, but they fly around a lot and they are very restless. How old is Biko? Our birds Fritz and Freda are 11 months.
To anyone complaining about clipped wings get over yourself! If done properly it doesn't take the birds capability to fly completely away. It just makes it so it can't get as far. It's for safety reasons!!!
Hi, do you have any tips to help me out. I recently got 2 lovebirds and they are both terrified of me. I know I have to take it slow but what do you recommend? And for the tricks, how did you get him/her to do all of that? incredible!!!!
your lovebird is very smart,you've done a lot of work with him... I hope the coins are not real as they can give your bird lead poisoning and will make your cute little one very sick... I had it happen with mine..take care !
what treats do you recommend for a lovebird? my baby is 3 months old and i want to start training him to of tricks but i can't seem to really figure out what treats he's crazy about, all he eats are his seeds. I've tried broccoli, apple but he doesn't seem interested
take a mix of items offer them to your bird they will choose what they want then slowly narrow it down till you find what they absolutely go crazy for.
You should switch all the metal stuff to something less dangerous, like lovebird approved wood, or he might get metal poisoning. At least my bird's vet is VERY strict about that... And yes, you shouldn't clip their wings. Flying is one of their best source of exercise, it helps keep them healthy. So as long as you have screens on your windows: you shouldn't clip them.
That was amazing! I never knew they could be trained to do stuff like that - well done to you both. May I ask, What is the name of this breed of Love Bird? He/she looks exactly like mine. And what treat did you use for reward? Thanks so much for sharing this.
Thanks Lissa! i Appreciate your kind words! Lovebirds are pretty much the same, just difference in colour. But if you have to know, his colour is known as a whiteface-sea green and i use sunflower seeds as a reward, its not part of his main diet. Hope that helps! good luck!
I bought them from Daiso! These were found in the kids toys section! Nope i dont use clicker training, more of verbal reward such as "good boy!!!" and sunflower seeds :)
So awesome, made me smile! Just got a Lovebird a few days ago. We are trying to gain his trust. I would love to be able to train him soon. Hopefully it won't take too long for him to trust us so we can work with him. How long do you work with him each day?
Owner: Do this
Lovebird: I don't want
Owner: Would you do it for a scooby snacks
Yes
Ye s
My lovebird, Nova, would have looked at me, bite my finger, grab the treat, and run like hell! XD
Biko can go in the bird Olympics
Awwww your lovebird is peach faced like mines
I have a love bird just like that
How cute is this smart lovebird? I did not know you can train lovebirds!
And they say birds are not smart!!! Your bird is a primary example of what love between human and animals can do! This video is awesome!
The upside-down trick was awsome!

ok
I like the springo because it seems like if the bird would be like,"I am going to the past, I am going back to the place where I was
I wish my lovebird was this smart. He just sits on my chest all day kissing my nose up and down.
You are so lucky, he kisses you!
my bird too :(
It's not like birds do this by instinct. It's something that is thought, you just have to teach yours.
Your lucky yours does that, mine just bites me lmao
My bird isn't too open to new things since I never taught him young. I'm slowly teaching him how to handle new things, he's making slow progress, and he's showing more curiosity than fear now!
Amazing and totally adorable. Well done, both of you.
wow thats awsome my bird just sits in the top of the computer sleeping seeing bird videos
Mine too!!
Both my crackatoos sit on the monitor. Totally sleep through everything.
Most amazing lovebird I have ever seen..lots of love to the little chap :)
aww how adorable! he is so cute & very clever. I miss owning a bird! those and rabbits are my fave animals! some day, i will have some rabbits, lovebirds & parrots & i think i will train my birds to do tricks like this. it would be so awesome
What a wonderful bird! Biko's a wonderful companion!!
I love that bird Biko
Biko looks exactly like my baby. Too bad he hasn't learned a lot of tricks yet but he is still a baby!
My lovebird only knows how to bite people. That's her talent
oh no!
you are a good trainer
I was just going "awwwhh" throughout this whole thing.
My family have had 1 generation of love birds since before I was even born, all peach faced and sadly their last children passed away but now we're going to start an all new generation and we're getting a few week old love birds from a pet store very soon (peach faced) I can't wait!
I have a lovely 3 week old peach face love bird she is very kind and loving I hope you have a good time with yours :)
I use to have a peach faced & a blue masked love bird. Very smart & very sweet if tame♡
Alli Sparks
Tame is definitely best. My lovebirds were never very tame, but they are coming around. However, all of their babies are. They are the sweetest.
HandyDandyCrafts is breeding them hard?
your bird knows how to wave BYE BYE...that so cool😎
thats awesome! You've taught your bird so well!
Very cute, I had a lovebird named Pucky and they are look a likes, wow!
Haha that's legit. My lovebird just kind of chills and watches TV with me.
thank you for your kind words franz! biko is wing clipped for safety as i stay high rise :O
lovebirds are naturally active little bodies! haha! Biko is coming to 3 years old this april. oh! what coloration are they!
such a smart little birdy, you trained him/her well
What an amazing bird :) You're my favourite, Bikoooo :D
Using your video I taught my lovebird a few of these. Thank you very much! :D

Christian Gutierrez
THAT was soooo impressive!! Oh my gosh! Unbelievable for a little Love Bird! Too cool!
Awesome both of you, just loved the music and Bikos tricks very fun to watch, you should be so proud of all your time you have spent teaching such a clever bird and you can just see how much fun Biko is having, just like extra cool playtime with you :)

Oh my God so freaking adorable! Makes me miss my two babies. T.T Loved the video. Thanks for sharing!

Whatever you do dont give him the infinity stones, with his intelligence and the power of the stones he will be the king of the galaxy!
Beautiful and Smart Birds
Very naughty too ;)
Culo
This is awesome!! What an amazing little birdy he's so smart! :) I wanna teach my bird to do all that and more!
How old lovebirds has to be , to begin teaching them
actually once they can come to you while feeding is a good time to start simple, like come!
Aww biko is so cute!! The coin bank trick is outstanding, couldnt believe my eyes lol!!
Why 259 dislikes? This vid is perfect!
BIRDS will do anything for food :DD
Us birbs are the most intelligent species ever!
BIRBS are the BEST
That bird is pretty smart.
How is Biko? He is so cute! I'm so happy to see one person who is really good with their birds. These animals are so often neglected.
Biko:*No Cant Reach!*
Coin bank and upside-down so cute!
Great job Sabrina and Biko!! We loved your video. Can Biko fly? We've got two lovebirds, too. They can do some tricks, but they fly around a lot and they are very restless. How old is Biko? Our birds Fritz and Freda are 11 months.
OMG... best training...and so so so cute Bird....
Biko is so cuuuteeee.
I really enjoyed watching your love bird, thanks for that

I love your name Biko! You are so smarttt
I was wondering how are they I'm planning on getting one (I'm twelve) and I want to know is it worth it??
Our little Momo does a bunch of tricks and can say a bunch of words ..she is so smart it's scary
To anyone complaining about clipped wings get over yourself!
If done properly it doesn't take the birds capability to fly completely away.
It just makes it so it can't get as far. It's for safety reasons!!!
this video just made my bird look stupid thank u lol
Hi, do you have any tips to help me out. I recently got 2 lovebirds and they are both terrified of me. I know I have to take it slow but what do you recommend? And for the tricks, how did you get him/her to do all of that? incredible!!!!
Nope, they can peel it on their own, but if they take too long you can de shell it for them :)
Biko is so smart
"bye-bye" is my favorite-trick ;-)
btw: which font-type do you used for the trick-titles?
What a wonderful little bird. What is the treat you give him that he loves so much?
your lovebird is very smart,you've done a lot of work with him...
I hope the coins are not real as they can give your bird lead poisoning and will make your cute little one very sick... I had it happen with mine..take care !
When I read that your bird got sick my brain was just like NOOOOO THAT POOR BIRD AWWWWWWWWWWW POOR LITTLE BIRDY AWWWWWWWWWWW
So adooorable!!!! I had two lovebirds when I was a kid, I wish I had trained them as you have :)
he is so smart.... and cute!
your bird is awesome!
if i could get my bird to wave on youtube....i'de be soooooo happy
Great training! I loved this video!
MAGNIFIQUE!!! KISSS
you trained him well :D nicely done!
Freda is green, orange and grey. Fritz is blue, white and grey. We'll post a video of their show soon.
Amazing!.. How did you train them?
Spettacolo....Complimenti davvero sia per Biko, che è bellissimo, che per quello che hai insegnato a lui!!
what treats do you recommend for a lovebird? my baby is 3 months old and i want to start training him to of tricks but i can't seem to really figure out what treats he's crazy about, all he eats are his seeds. I've tried broccoli, apple but he doesn't seem interested
try millet
take a mix of items offer them to your bird they will choose what they want then slowly narrow it down till you find what they absolutely go crazy for.
they are mad over millet and sunflower seeds (not those salted one please!)
But please not too often as it is high in fat, best if not used as the main diet.
You and Biko did an awesome work!
Glad you think so!
my love bird will fly away and escape if I do this...
I trained my pidgeoto to use razor leafe
you aint leafy
leafyishere HE IS HERE
Amateur Dragon Jk you fake
prove it
Pidgeotto can't learn Razor Leaf
All my lovebird does is fly into walls, screams at me when I touch her or go near her, and shits EVERYWHERE
You should switch all the metal stuff to something less dangerous, like lovebird approved wood, or he might get metal poisoning. At least my bird's vet is VERY strict about that...
And yes, you shouldn't clip their wings. Flying is one of their best source of exercise, it helps keep them healthy. So as long as you have screens on your windows: you shouldn't clip them.
te felicitó ! increible si tan solo mis agapornis hicieran eso .Nooooooo! ni serca😩.
Cuando los cerdos buelen🐷

you are an excennellent trainer! maybe biko also needs a partner so you can breed these super intelligent lovebirds ;)
he is already quite old.. not sure he can adapt to a new friend :3
That was amazing! I never knew they could be trained to do stuff like that - well done to you both.
May I ask, What is the name of this breed of Love Bird? He/she looks exactly like mine.
And what treat did you use for reward?
Thanks so much for sharing this.
Thanks Lissa! i Appreciate your kind words! Lovebirds are pretty much the same, just difference in colour. But if you have to know, his colour is known as a whiteface-sea green
and i use sunflower seeds as a reward, its not part of his main diet. Hope that helps!
good luck!
OMG, adorable!!!!! Youved done a Good job!
So cute and impressive! Where did you get all the stuff you used? Like the little orange drawers? Did you use clicker training?
I bought them from Daiso! These were found in the kids toys section! Nope i dont use clicker training, more of verbal reward such as "good boy!!!" and sunflower seeds :)
So awesome, made me smile! Just got a Lovebird a few days ago. We are trying to gain his trust. I would love to be able to train him soon. Hopefully it won't take too long for him to trust us so we can work with him. How long do you work with him each day?
