Thank you for covering all the training steps to lead up to recall and all these possible adjustments. 🙏🏻 I've trained recall before but had forgotten the progression to start with a new untrained bird.
I remember those clips of you teaching Newt to fly 😂 It was around the time I found your channel. I've learned so much from you since then. Thank you for everything!
My 20 year old Quaker is not food motivated and will not step up. He came from horrible circumstances, and still carries baggage. He no longer bites me, which is good because I have enough scars from him.
You are amazing, thank you for sharing your talent. The amount that I learn in each video is incredible. I am training a Parrotlet. Maybe 6-8 months old.
My senegal parrot did his first recall jump onto me on his own with no training cought me off guard . For long distance jump he needs a little bit of time to prepare until it get the courage to jump it's so funny I get a kick out of it everytime
A number of people have said to me that my bird needs to undergo recall training again-but the recall training that everyone advises us to do (which we did do) was to starve the bird for a day then use a food lure to teach step up and flight recall. Very painful to hear the bird’s calls before the training, they’re starved for hours and keep asking for help. I will do this method instead.
I first convert my birds' diet to pellets so that seeds can be used as a treat. Or instead of seeds, sometimes I identify a bird safe veggie is highly motivating as a treat/rewards. I think if diet conversion is very hard for your bird, I've seen people do a morning training at breakfast time (since they haven't been eating while sleeping). Using these approaches, they're never starved.
I have a cockatiel 3 weeks old. He is screaming and coming closer when I hold a feeding syringe. When I come close without feeding syringe, my cockatiel afraid of me.
My australian parakeets are very flighty, though hand fed and tame...is there any hope for them? They are afraid of anything new, including a training stick.

Newt is just a little party with wings isn't he! Thanks for this tutorial - very helpful 😁

I dont think that was a good idea, I don't yet have a parrot but one overlapping fact I see is trust and in this case he may mistrust you for that

It’s really helpful, thanks🙂
Awesome video, thank you!! Did you make the treat bucket on your belt, or did you purchase it?
It’s called The Trainer’s Pouch “the pocket!” I have a full review video on the pouch on the channel!

could you do a video about training various birds at the same time?
What treat do you use for training?
