Sunny is so beautiful! I always appreciate your frequent reminders that many of your animals don't make good pets. We have no pets at my house (we lost our sweet dog to old age a couple years ago), and the temptation is strong to get somethings small and cute. The truth is we don't have the time, space, or funds to properly care for an animal right now. Thanks for sharing your animals with us!
E J I was in a similar predicament when I moved to a small (500 sq ft) apartment. In the end, I got a bearded dragon and I couldn’t be happier. Reptiles don’t need a ton of space and they don’t make a lot of noise or smells. Different species are different kinds of interactive. Ziggy loves to run and around the apartment, and will also sit on your hand or shoulder. The main difficulties are diet (insects and salads) and heat/lighting. I reccomend RUclips channels Clints Reptiles and Snake Discovery to find out more about reptiles!
@EJ I understand this feeling completely. People say that I must hate dogs as I have a cat I dearly love. But the truth is I love all animals, and because of that realize that a dog would not have the best life it could in my small apartment, especially since there are times I am out for most of the day. My cat, Myla, doesn't mind this as the apartment is big enough for her to roam/find a good napping spot, and as long as I am home at night (and I keep feeding her), she's contented. I sometimes watch these videos and think how great a bird would be, but I have watched so many responsible owners show how much work, funds, and care they take, and as I mentioned I have a cat, so I know it wouldn't be fair. It is an honorable choice, to be honest about your ability to have an animal, and I hope you get into a position to have one soon :).
I love sunny!!!🤣🥰
@@sarahloomis2034 Ziggy sounds great!
Omg sunny is so precious and sweet and I love how clearly proud of her and how much you love her from your tone of voice. Sunny seems to glow with pride when you compliment her!! Such a cool bird
I love how the Woody Woodpecker shirt Jessi is wearing goes so well with Sunny!
same
Thank you for pointing out that these do not make good pets. As neat as they are, there best enjoyed thru avenues like this and left to the professionals and ppl with more advanced expertise. Thanks for sharing! She really is a lovely bird and fun to watch.
I like it when she mentions that kind of stuff. I now know that hedgehogs have very sticky poo that they often roll in and it dries like concrete. Sugar gliders pee on you. So many cool animals but terrible pets.
@@aleciastar1433 Indeed. Most animals are more than people realize and theres no "easy" pet. EasyER yes. Even with goldfish. It really is disheartening to see people want animals just because of what they see on tv or social media or because they think there cool/cute or easy and then that animal usually winds up being abandoned, re homed or dies from neglect or just lives out a miserable life. Its important to keep getting the message out there to do the research first and not impulse buy and really examine ones own life to see what even fits. Not force the animal to fit or expect family/friends to step up when you cant or that collages will allow you to move in with it. Most collages dont. That rarely ever works out.
Your enthousiasm is so contagious haha, so glad Sunny's making so much progress!
So fascinating to get really detailed clips of the training sessions. Definitely great to see how different animals learn. Training videos are my favorites.
What a beautiful and smart bird ❤️
So excited to see this update. What a beauty. She's going to make a great ambassador.
Wow I’m early!!!!!
Thank you for making these wonderful videos! So informative and fun!!!!🥰
I wish she was in my city . I really like animals n birds . I talk about them all the time .
Totally off topic, but Jessi, I like how you did your eye makeup.❤️
Your videos always put a smile on my face! Hope the entire Team and animals are well, healthy, and happy. Sending many hugs!!
I'm all for these journey recap style videos. Seeing the progress is really neat.
I LOVE when animals have an "Aha!" moment in training and everything suddenly seems to click, it's a really magical moment in cross-species communication.
thanks for sharing the training process! I can see your passion for animals :)
Blueberries are bird crack
our GCC calls them "kisses"
And Sunny did an amazing job!
Yeay
Ahh What a good bird ! She is goergous. I love her little hair cut.
So touracos are basically small monitor lizards with wings and feathers.
Damn this community is so positive! I love it!
Turacos have the most amazing colours!
Just shows there are still animals that I've never seen before 👏😍
I think these are very beautiful! I came across a couple several years ago and I fell in love!
Watching you work with Sunny, makes me think of Brock from 2canTV working with his tucan, Beatrix. It would amazing if you two could a collaboration about tucans. You both advocate so passionately about the well-being and quality of life for the animals in your care; it's inspiring.
Congrats to you, Jessi! Sunny, you are extraordinary.
Thank you for this.
I too, am blueberry motivated
nice video!! so glad that the turacos have got a deserving home
please make a video on ophelia the opposum
and are you not training sprite? how is she doing?
Great video...Sunny is so beautiful. Thanks so much:)
Sunny looks like if a chicken and a parrot had a baby lolz she so cute!
This channel ranks highest on my list.
If you haven’t found them already, I suggest you look into Bird Tricks. It’s a RUclips channel run by professional parrot trainers. I know they’re not the same, but they’re more similar than not.
I really want to see a video about the pigeon
Wow! Thank you, that was very interesting! Sunny is such a beauty! ❤️ It is so nice to see how much you love the animals and your job!
hello im a fan of you i always watch your epic!!!!!!!!
the videos on epic"
Nice job!
Aww Sunny is so cute, sweet and SMART! I want a Sunny bizarre beast pin!
Sunny seems like such a sweet little Turaco..she’s so beautiful
Can you please do another update on all of your birds? I wanna see how they're doing. Thanks!
Wow, I really needed to see targeting takes time! I'm trying to target train my Linnie Kiwi, but he got aggressive and angry at the target stick and millet reward :(. It's hard to target train when he's aggressive when you try to hand him food lol. Maybe I should stick with it though and he'll improve. Thanks for another great video Jessi!
Try looking up the RUclips channel BirdTricks (Jessie did a collab with them a while back). They have LOTS of really informative videos on target training parrot-type birds, including tips on dealing with issues like the bird responding aggressively to the target. They also put up videos of them working with difficult parrots to target train them, so there's also lots of real-life examples to watch.
Sunny won my heart
so cool! proud of sunny :)
*AnimalWonders Montana* I like your video
She’s so beautiful!
Would you by chance have tips on what is useful to teach a horse? I love dog training and want to train my new horse in some of the same methods. I think it would be good to help establish trust and give us something to do besides riding.
Just do some research on ground training. Unfortunately horses are harder to train with classic treat based training because of how they make associations. For me at least, have had very little success with clicker training with my horse. Other more horse specific methods work better. I have my horse do a lot of movement based tricks like turn on the fore, turn on the rear, bow, step up on pedestals, open and close gate, yo-yo, etc.
Jessi is to pure for this world.
She is so BEAUTIFUL, it's unreal!
Photobomb from Mimi
you should make a video of some animals who have never seen each other to react to each other
While recapping the story, Sunny keeps looking at Jessi like, ''Yeah, I'm pretty great. This story is good.''
Doe turaco feather colors show up in their bathwater? You hear about wild ones looking a little drab after hard rain!
Hewwo! Do you guys do community sourced closed captions in different languages? I’d love to offer to translate CC for German if y’all community source.
I think RUclips recently disabled that feature.
@@evercuriousmichelle Aw that’s too bad!
good job sunny
She's a Pokemon!
I would also want to watch a video about the pigeons
Hi jessi iv bin whoching u from a school website and I finly find u yay
Sunny is a cutie. 😊
Handsome Birb
hi im a big fan i have wached your vids for 1 year now can you say hi to all the animals for me
Can we have more pigeon videos please
I wish I could let my bird fly all over my house but last time one of my birds flew out of their cage, he was really energized and it was hard to catch him 🦜😞
But at least they have a big cage
I love you
Hey I have a question, why is my cockatiels poop brown and whenever she poops it’s like splattered everywhere and smells bad
I would talk to a vet instead of the internet
@@silverl95 I did and I went to many places with good rating and they cant do anything that's why I'm asking the Internet
@@theliesyousay556 ok, many come here instead of to a vet so that is why I told you to ask a vet.
Pretty bird
Sunny is a good girl.
Did she know she was wearing a bird shirt
I don't think she knew
Sunny really is beautiful 😍
You know, Jessi sort of reminds me of Wendy of Wendy's.
what is a tauraco? plz tell me
Check out her first video on turacos where she introduces 2 of them (Sunni and her friend)
hi
Am I the only one who’s watching this in epic?
🥺🥺❤️❤️🖤🖤
Woody Woodpecker!
😍😍😘
i love cheeks
:3
First
My wife does this on me, too
Your wife? Good for you! Mine is a less romantic story: my CATS are still in the process of training me. Sometimes they're so frustrated by my being so slow on the uptake! But I'm making progress! :)
Love Cheeks ♥️
You are a sweet woman
You are very good at this, BUT a dont now if it the microfone or something else.but youres voice is like a drill in my ears .sorry !!!
Why would you want your bird to bite a stick? I mean, awesome but, why? wouldnt it be better to teach something kind of more useful?
I think the idea is that you can eventually use the stick to guide the bird over longer distances, such as into a crate. That ultimately makes it easier to care for the bird as well as teach it other more useful behaviors.
Targeting is a very versatile behaviour, Jessie uses it to guide the animals to other movements
Target training is what trainers use as a kind of baseline behaviour and its actually very useful. It's very easy to teach, so if you teach it as a first skill, the bird learns how training works (ie, the trainer gives a cue, the bird does a behaviour, the trainer saying 'good' or a click = they've done what the trainer wanted, they get a food reward). That makes it easier to teach more complex things, as the animal already knows how the whole process is supposed to work, with a mental link between a cued behaviour and a reward.
Second, you can use targeting as a bridge to many other skills. Suppose you want to teach the bird to enter a crate. You can put the target stick through the bars of the crate, so the bird has to go into the crate to touch the target. Because it's a behaviour the bird already knows how to do and they want to earn the reward, they're much more likely to willingly enter a crate this way than if you just try to put them into it. Or if you want to teach them to jump onto an audience member's arm at public presentations, you can hold the target so the bird has to perch on the other person to reach it. Or teach them to spin around by making them follow the target in a circle. There are so many ways you can use it.
If you're interested, a RUclips channel called Bird Tricks did a collab video with Animal Wonders a while ago which talks about why you should target train an animal and the many ways you can use it, with examples from several different species.
@@PonderingStudent i had no idea, thats cool c:
Can you pleaseeee do guinea pig videosss😄
Aren't they also called "go-a-way" birds?
