You fell in love - and then your Caique parrot started eating your keyboard, which you weren't happy about, but your fingers too! Now that's not going to fly!
Could it be possible that, if you understood your Caique parrot better, then you'd know how to get along better and you'd have less biting?
Here are 5 ways you can work to improve your experience. These will help you understand things like:
1 - Young parrots go through a 'teething' stage
2 - They don't have hands, so they 'feel' the world with their beaks
3 - They may be weaned, but they still expect to be fed
4- Sometimes they are asking a question!
Watch to learn what the question is, why I allow them to beak my fingers (not cut skin/make me hurt or bleed) and what the 5th things is you can do to improve your experience and increase your bond!

Very good video. People get very discouraged with a beaky bird. One of my girls is very beaky. She is a pincher and a licker. I gently push her away from my face and refocus her. Being a Caique that lasts for about 30 seconds. When she was younger she would test the pressure of her beak. You made a very good point in saying their beaks are like their hands. ☺️
Thanks, Jan. I really want people to learn to get past the challenges and bond. Otherwise, the bites can end the love. I hate to think of parrots getting surrendered
Caiques seem like awesome birds.
I do the same thing with our ceiling fan. My birds have never gone near it.
They are wonderful, Caiques-
laughing about the fan... off = problem. On high = problem. on low, surprising works well!
They are so beautiful. I have heard they can be very nippy or aggressive. They are very rare in my area but I have seen some for sale and they are expensive because they are rare.
I was always interested in them but worried about the so called aggression. They look like fun.
How expensive, if I may ask. They aren't too common here either. It's interesting a lot of people ask about them being nippy, saying they have heard that a lot, but I also wonder if they know how to handle a parrot. Sounds like they are not a beginner bird. I think they are super special, of course. However, I think they should only be sold in twos because they need companionship for sure.
Our Amazon gets VERY scrappy when he gets hungry!!! It was really helpful when we figured that out. Now we take him to eat, give him more food, etc, when he gets hard to handle like that.
It can help when a parrot is wanting to bite things to play with them with a toy or give them a toy or something else to chew on like a veggie.
For a while our Amazon would get feisty and bite me every time I got him out of his cage because he was so excited, wanted to wrestle, etc. (It wasn't defensive - he wanted to step up every time. ) I broke the cycle by giving him a piece of a walnut every time I got him out. I showed it to him so his attention was on the nut, then had him step up and gave him the nut. I don't need to give him nuts anymore when getting him out.
Spending time with them, a long, long time, seems to iron out most issues. You seem to be very good at that!
Thank you for this video.
Great video thanks for the 5 tips Kalyn I will practice the 10 minute rule with Quattro 🙏👍💃
Give Quattro a kiss for me!
My caique’s bites are so hard, it goes right through the skin. And it’s also for no reason… like our bird is almost 3 years old and is still super bites.
Sorry to hear that! Did any of my suggestions in the video help?
I've been told by so many parrot store owners not to get Caiques because they supposedly turn mean and aggressive after a while. I don't know who or what to believe anymore...
One thing that makes no sense to me is why do they carry the Caiques if they're going to tell people not to buy them? Or do they not sell them?
@@ParrotBliss they do not carry them; nor do they carry Cockatoos
@@chadb7694 that's interesting...
They do become more hormonal with age. It kind of begins at at 3, but my bird didn’t become full forced until he was 5. Once of the things that can be difficult is they go for about a month, twice a year, where you have to be careful. I know not to touch the body, just the head, but sometimes they can stimulate themselves by surfing on your clothes during this time. I don’t think they are a beginner bird. Once they get excited, you have about one second before things take a turn. My bird basically pierced my ear because I took two seconds to react.
My bird is 5 months old and is extremely bitey. She makes us bleed everyday. I have no idea what to do. I'm sure she is beaky because of her age. I try not to react but sometimes it hurts so so so bad. She isn't afraid of us at all. She constantly only wants to be on us and our hands and shoulders. She's always happy to see us. Our interactions
Usually start well but within 5-10 minutes she is nibbling and chomping on us. her bites go from small nibbles to her literally
Trying to tear our skin off. I don't think we're doing anything to provoke her. Please help
Is she the only parrot on the home? If she likes to be on you, when does she bite? If you are in my group on FB (#ParrotBlissFlock) can you upload a video for me to see?
I have a caique parrot and I got him a week ago and first he was so scared then I did the trick where I put my hand in the cage for 5-10 minutes a day and now when I go near him he starts being aggressive can someone please help me ?
How old is your Caique? Where did you get him from?
@@ParrotBliss I don’t know. My brother brought him from his friend who left to go to another country
I have two and they do not get along. Both are male, one is 7 and other is 3.5 years old. My 3year old bites me and draws blood... he is scared of my hands.
I’m sorry to hear this, Joanne. Caiques can be temperamental. I think they have to be raised and trained well - I’m not saying you have or have not done so since I wouldn’t know. I’m saying that they aren’t an easy parrot, by any means. How long have you had them?
@Parrot Bliss I got both at three months old. The first one (male) is 8 and the other ( male) is now about 3.
@@joannevos6321 Oh- getting one at a time can be tricky. The one gets used to having all your attention. I’m surprised they haven’t bonded after 3 years. What do you do, keep them separated?
So question I have two males as you already know one is a white bellied and the other is a black headed caique both are around 7months now the white bellied is closer to 8months and they have been together since they were both a little over a month old , They share the same cage , Now I am planning on getting two female white bellied caiques for the both of them and I was also planning on buying a macaw size cage to cage all four together until they are adults and then I'll pair them of in groups of two male/female when they are around 2years , what are your thoughts on having four caiques caged together in a macaw sized caged assuming they all get along of course while they are still young?
I know you saw the video I made you :)
@@ParrotBliss yes I did thank you very much..
@@streetfightervsxenoverse1832 no prob, thanks for the question
hello
I have female caique two things I want ask you ....
1- She let Gas comes out of her mouth that smells like moldy milk, but not constantly when she is 4 months... and now she is a year old. It has been constantly.... Frankly, it bothers me🤢 and I'm also afraid😖 that it is problem in her stomach😰!!
2- she always wants lick my skin😑😑 how I can make her stop ✋️ 😩
This sounds like a question for the avian veterinarian - I haven’t heard of gas out of their mouths. It does sound like a digestive issue…
That sounds like a Caique, licking your skin. Unfortunately, not sure what you can do. You have a unique little lady!
@@ParrotBliss 😪😪😪😪😪😪 thanks for help anyway
UR FAN ..,... it's ON .....☠️☠️☠️ ,,..... HOW COME !!!!!
Asking for your advice. I just come back from vacation, & my male caique is so aggressive towards me. He savaged my ears, my chin, my head, & fingers, really bad bites. Been told to leave him in the cage, & feed him treats through the bars. I can't have him out, as he just flies towards my head & savagely bites, drawing blood. He's 2 half hormonal male. If this carries on I have no option to rehome him. Any advice be helpful
Here is what I did: ruclips.net/video/-ILeFAihwDs/видео.htmlsi=Am93A2JxhF3c1x_E
I just visited my 14-week old caique today in the store. I can’t bring him home until after he is weaned. I had two on my hand/arm and the one I’m getting was being very curious (not vicious) and bit me very hard. I did not react but he kind of kept trying to bit the loose skin on the back of my hand so I had to put him back in his cage at that point. How do you make them understand that a bite was TOO hard? They are babies and exploring their new world/human so I understand them being “beaky” - but how do you make them understand what is TOO hard?
I’ve done videos on this -no I will see if I can put a link here.
Use this term to search, I found 6 videos I’ve done on biting: Parrot bliss biting
can I keep my caiques in the same cage or will they fight
How do they do when they are out of their cages? Do they get along? You should be able to cage them together, but IT MUST be a new cage so that neither can ‘claim’ the territory. They should get a fresh or new cage together to jointly take ownership :)
Hi, if you have an elderly caique 24 years old. Can it be paired with another caique, or is an older caique male to aggressive at that stage in life. Anyway, if it can be paired, is it best to get another male for it, or a female?
The challenge is that the pairing will depend on his personality and whether he knows how to relate to birds. Has he been around other parrots?
If no, it'll be tough and may not work. He lost his birdness.
If yes, he's been around other birds- especially Caiuqes- then yes, but it will take time for him to create a new bond. He has his birdness and can (and wants to) relate to other birds.
Just like older people- same things apply.
@@ParrotBliss He had a brother living with him in the same cage for about 18 years. The brother died about 6 years ago. He's only had me to bond with since.
I now have a very aggressive Golden conure! He’s young and he is hanging out with his female partner! They are young! Help!
How is he being aggressive?
@@ParrotBliss after awhile he starts to lunge and bite. He doesn’t break skin but it hurts. This is not beaking, which is what out female Ember does, but actual biting. He also doesn’t want to be put away and clings to my wife and I.
@@floridamadman59 is he being possessive of the female? Does he bond with you and your wife also?
@@ParrotBliss He likes being with us. They even play on me and won’t get off. But then plays too rough and when we go to put him away he gets very aggressive. We have the cages right next to each other but I’m thinking of separating them.
@@floridamadman59 Are you doing training? I think this is some‘terrible two’s’ - Bonnie has been a bit rough too. I don’t recommend separating the cages, they need a flock.
Mine bites me when I try to get him back into his cage in general the aggravation starts when I do something he doesn’t want for example take his toy away how should I handle this 😅? And btw thank you for sharing this video
Great question- how to handle this. Will work on a video for you. Glad you liked the video
Try to make everything a positive experience. Put treats or chop in their cage so they're excited to go in and give them a treat when they go to their perch in their cage :)
Why dos my parrot caique 14 months old every time I put him in his cage as I have dogs
Sorry, don't understand the question
@@ParrotBliss I have a 17 month old caique he comes on my hand and loves me but soon as I want to put him in his cage he bites really hard I need to put him in as I also have 2 dogs please what suggest
@@lynneegan637 It’s because they are social and you are putting him by himself. It is like a punishment, so he’s telling you that he doesn’t like it. You need another Caique
