@@maddoxio yes its important to train them that your the safe place, I also have my burd to take a spot..its the next step from getting them to fly to a perch..its not just about them feeling safe at that point it's also them trusting your judgement..so if someone comes along with a huge dog..I'm 5 foot nothing..I was worried that a gog might be able to reach my bird on my shoulder so now I can tel him to fly to that roof and he will ..and sit there till i say he can move..I just feel safer been able to get him up out of the way,..the training is fun..I come across lots of situations and things I can use in his training that I can improvise to create a situation..by bird has gotten so good in the sky so fast..its amazing..I'd make a good macaw mammy ..
This video made me so happy I had a green cheek conure that died last week, I thought she was only around 6 but we took her to the vet and she turned out to be almost 50! This reminds me of all the goofy times we had together, and introducing her to all the new things in the world for the first time. Your birdie looks so happy and well loved, thx for posting this
This video had my 20 yr old son literally saying through the whole thing....." awwwww, she's so sweet....awwww, ohhhhh my shez cute.....awwww, look at her go....she soo beautiful.....awwwww". I just cried happy tears watching little birdie grow and get strong! Lol
I love everything about this video. I have a 12 year old green cheek female that I simply adore. She is such a cuddler. Your patience and kindness are so evident in this video, please don't ever lose that.
The bond you have with this little Princess is incredible I’ve only had my little girl three days but I hope she loves me as much as yours love you xoxo
Green cheeks are just such sweet birds that tend to warm up to people fast. They are such sweet little babies. Wonderful first birds for anyone who is new to them.
Thank you, Julia, for being such a kind, loving person. You are a really good mom!❤🦜❤🦜❤ I found a a bird that looks just like yours five days ago on the street. He didn't bite me when I picked him up. I am not sure what happened to him; but I took him to a Vet, they only cared for dogs and cats... I did get a water dropper from them. I gave the bird some water, and he it, slowly at first, then he drank a good amount. I bought him a big bird cage, toys, food, and made chop for him (for the days he was here) with seed sprinkled in... He would fly around the house, and he would sit on me and fly on my head first day, then he started getting kinda wild: the more I let him fly around freely: the more he didn't want me putting him back in the cage. He would sit on the mini blinds in the kitchen and stare outside so intently. I didn't want us to get too attached, because I knew I was going to set him free in my neighborhood; where there's a lot of these birds around. I couldn't stand the thought of him trapped in a cage, but he only slept in it; while he was here. I saw he was strong and a very good flyer, and he was SO smart, so I felt he would be a-ok! When I took him outside, and I put him on the palm of my hand, he stayed and just looked at me, like he was saying, thank you. He stayed for a couple of minutes until I said, go Micah, your free. Tears rolling down my face he looked at me, and he turn and flew away. He found his new family with in 10 minutes. I was SO HAPPY he was accepted, but so sad because I loved him already. God's beautiful creation is truly AMAZING. I felt sad and happy watching this video, so sweet. Thank you! 💕
I've met people who keep their birds in cages in the closet. Who adopted a parrot with a brain injury but keep it in the garage. You, madam, are by far the best bird mom I have had the pleasure of watching.
You and that sweet little girl are awesome! She obviously loves you and that says a lot honey. Don't let anyone make you feel bad. I loved this journey! Thank you so much. We had doves years ago that were very loving and sweet. Both my daughter and I miss them a lot. I would love to have one of these darlings.🐾🐦🙏🤗💚
Sooo *cuuuuuuute!* My mother recently got two birds (budgies) to keep her company during the pandemic, and it's been interesting to see their personalities develop the same way Delphi's has started to appear. [Edit] So I just watched your other video, and I'm commenting here, since Comments were disabled over there. While I'm sad that you had to give Delphi away, I'm also really proud of you for doing the right thing for her. Your little friend needed another friend of her own, and you did what was best for her, even if it hurt. If people are spamming you with hate for that - which is the impression I got from the Description text - don't listen to them. Besides, little Sami seems like he's growing up fast! You'll have another sidekick in no time!
So beautiful!!! Green Cheeks are the best!!! And you have a yellow sided one at that. Well done to get Delphi at such a young age and to hand feed and teach to fly to you. Make sure you talk often to her in repeated phrases. Mine, Rascal, now says "Good Baby", "You're so Cute", "You're Sweet", "Yada, Yada, Yada", and then she also sweet talks to me, babbling in my ear, when sitting on my shoulder. And I babble back; she loves it.
What a beautiful bird! You’re doing an amazing job and i can really tell that you love spending time and caring for Delphie. I was hoping to get a conure soon. This video is so adorable and wholesome I really can’t wait to buy my own.
Delphi looks almost exactly like my conure Popo. Not sure if he is a Mr. Or Mrs.... I rescued Popo from a pet store. Where he/she stayed in a small cage at the back of the store. Most of his/her time there. The first night bringing Popo home. He/she just wouldnt stop crying everytime we put em in the cage that night and tried turning the light off for bed... We ended up having Popo do a cuddle sesh with us in the bed for 2 to 3 hours. We were able to get Popo to stay happily in his/her cage after that.... I absolutely adore my babies (birbs) Beautiful video
Awwww Delphi! So cute~ Reminds me of my old bird that was also a green cheek conure that died within 5 months of my family getting him. Watching green cheek conures always warms my heart and brings back amazing memories. Delphi seems so happy with you :) I love this video so much ;-;
You guys really take good care with her so she would be comfortable with you, get stronger and healthier. So sweet to see her interacting. loved see her bathe and sleep on her back. And snuggle under your hair. It can be very scary outside. A friend lost one of hers in a split second right in front of her… hawk swooped in and got it. She saw the shadow,, looked up to see what it was. And it was just there, it’s wings brushed her. It carried her precious baby off to group of trees. But then she could hear her screaming as she was eaten and then it got quiet. She had already headed down to where she thought it flew toward hoping it dropped her as the birds were chasing it out of a grove of trees but only found part of her and some feathers. Poor thing - she cried for days over that poor baby, cried for a year or more every-time she thought of her. It was her first one. She and her husband have passed away now - but they sure loved their parrots and orchids. They were so helpful and pleasant, were of service to any and all of those who needed it. Just lovely people. If we had more like them, the world would be so much nicer. As soon as this happened, they almost immediately built an outside aviary. 20’ tall, 40’ long and 20’ wide. They wanted it large enough for their big parrots. good thing they had around plenty of land. They had the contractor sink concrete about 18” down completely around the aviary inside and outside so as to prevent something digging under and then put 2 separated layers of screening on the inside and outside of the chain link and then put welded wire on inside of that. They didn’t want to worry about leaving them outside if they weren’t there. Those birds were so funny, you could just open the cages and they would hop to a board and they all just waddled “down the lane” - looked like an assembly line, hopped over a little ledge at the large window, down the ramp or flew to wherever they wanted to go. Could close the screen door or window, and they trained themselves so when they wanted in, they hung on the door or window into the greenhouse which gave them entrance to the living room or the large, sunny, “inside bird room” and they had small diameter welded wire too so they could hold on easily and between the three chime areas, the little piece of hanging pipe and a rope and “shook” the different wind chimes and bells to inform you it was time for you to play with them. And if you ignored them, they just got louder, and louder, more screaming etc. Their next door neighbor would call and say laughingly - “do I need to call the authorities and report you guys for neglecting those poor birds? 🫣🤣could really make those long wind chimes make quite the statement! Between the chimes and the birds, they could make some noise. It wasn’t always that they wanted to play with the humans; occasionally something scared them - cats, foxes, coyote, or a hawk flying over, large flocks of other birds would really get them jacked out of shape. One time it was a alligator! And early on, another critter got one which was why there were so many layers of screens. A black snake got in and was curled up in one of their shade and resting boxes. Talk about a commotion she said, but the darn thing got hold of small young bird and she couldn’t get up to it in time. The large parrots she said tried to protect the bird, flapping and pecking at it which really made rescuing it difficult. Finally her husband got to it by the tail and got it out but the poor little parrot was gone. Immediate construction started again and they couldn’t go out until it was made safer. They built a smaller connecting one for the smaller birds next. And then they built another much larger one that connected between the house and the original aviary. It included and opened from their orchid greenhouse. That way they could open and close off depending on the weather. After that, it was better and no more killed birds but they did do another layer of a heavier screening on everything thing, even into the house and greenhouse was so scared a smaller snake might sneak in. Even with the sadness, it was so pretty to see those gorgeous parrots flying and waddling around in amongst the orchids and it all surrounded with roses, shrubbery, vines, etc. It started with putting the flowers, vines, shrubs etc on the outside on different structures back off the aviary was so to not have any reflections they might fly into. Then they wanted vines with berries, seeds, fruits etc to nibble on. More like nature. They had several fountains they sounded great and several were so they could splash around and bathe. it was the nicest I had ever seen - greenhouse, landscape, house, aviary, zoo - whatever you wanted to call it. And all those birds loved them to pieces. It would be so funny sometimes, to look up and see them hanging on the big sliders into the house - just watching, not making a peep, just looking at whoever was inside and what they were doing. Then one would start a low chatter and in seconds, it was like holy terror broke out all at once. They opened the door and they would just waddle in, one by one. Hilarious! And they sorta talked as they waddled in, just low and happy. Some went to the kitchen to get veggie treats, some to their cages to just rest I guess. Some went to the living room, got up on her husband’s shoulder, a couple snuggled where they could, climbed in the blankets. some just wherever they could see the tv. One that had quite a character, full of personality and didn’t like everyone- it would go get in it’s cage and halfway pulled her cover down over the door so it would be dark. If it fell to the floor, oh my gosh, you would think something killed it. Someone would have to go in and not only attach the cover over the cage, but also adjust her inside little cotton bag so she could nest inside it. It was like you would start to walk out and she would squark until you finished your job. 🤣 Obviously, they had the wherewithal to afford all this and the caretaker to help. I don’t even know how many birds they had - it was a lot and most rescued babies. They did have a pair that every couple of years would have babies but then they just quit. Maybe they got older?? All their birds were very healthy, beautiful feathers, no bare spots. when it was time to lose their feathers, can’t think of it right now but they fed extra mashed boiled eggs more nuts, etc to make sure they had plenty of protein along with their regular high quality food and supplement. They made sure their nails were kept clipped so no pain or walking poorly, kept the cages clean. Had a large cage with a sand box in it so they could do dust bathes if they wanted. Out in aviary, they had fountains to bath in and I forgot the shower. one of the fountains was like a rain shower in our bathes but had those jets on the wall and they loved to fly through them especially the big birds. They had branches across here and there so they could rest on them and preen and sqooch down to the end so they could get right under the water to get drenched. What a hoot they were. And jealous darlings a couple could be.
That conure is very cute! 😍 I have already haves a lovebird, she’s a girl! Once she trusted me, she began jumping on my head when I go walk around the house! Birds are beautiful and easy to take care of! ❤️
The "IT MAKES NOISE" part really cracks me up. Such heartwarming memories you have recorded together, and the edits had me giggling. I have a little lovebird and a macaw at home, and both also adore cuddles and just generally falling asleep on their humans. Lots of love from Brazil.
When im ready for a bird im gonna divide my office into halves or fourths and make a giant cage for my birds to fly around in. One whole room is plenty of space to work with and make a terrarium cage that i can enter. Just change the bottom trays periodically.
OMG, what a gorgeous little birb. You look like you have an awesome bond with her. Very brave of you to take her outside like that. I know the free flight specialists say there isn't much risk of them flying off, but I just don't think I'd have the nerve. She looks so cute nestled into your neck and hiding in your sleeve. What a lovely video, really made me smile, thanks.
Just FYI You have done a great job with Delphi. it shows you spend TONS of time with her. just the fact you have her flight trained, and that she lets you pet her while "asleep" shows it. a very well cared for and happy bird. ~Source~ my parents are Conure breeders we hand-feed a bunch of these little guys.
You are going to cry your heart out the day she will be with you no longer. I lost one of my parakeets this summer and it was one of the greatest pains I ever had. Nice to see you got a cuddly one though. Those birbs are the best.
This made me cry what a lovely video. It reminded me of my baby masked face love bird I got when I was seven named Clifford. Thank you for this! Show Delphi more as she grows❤️❤️❤️
She's so adorable. This is the second time hearing about a green cheek conjure parrot I seen today I watch another channel before this. I love hearing about different parrots. After all, I seen a lot at the zoo and on RUclips. You learn something new everyday.
She is so sweet and your doing a fantastic with her, we just brought home 4mth old baby last week, he , maybe lol is one of the sweetest birds I have ever had the pleasure of owning, they are so affectionate and love the right people, I hope you have many years with her❤
Just found your channel today! I love them! Watching you mother Delphi to learn to fly and help her learn about life. So precious. I missed having a baby. My Green Cheek was a rehome. I’ve had him for 5 years this coming March. I cannot touch him but he flys to me when asked. Can do a bit of target training. Is a Velcro bird. Just don’t touch. I miss being able to cuddle. I love how well you do with your birds. Thank you for sharing.
I recently got a cockatiel and he/she is still a little afraid of me, but not as much as when i brought him/her. Watching you and Delphi just makes me happy. :) I also had a friend at school named Delphi
I only just stumbled across this video in my recommendations, but Delphi looks to be in great hands with a happy new home and family who will treasure her! I hope all are continuing to do well since the original posting of this video. Thank you for sharing!
Had one of them once. He was such a hyperactive little guy, couldn't sit still for a moment. Had to give him up because I couldn't afford him anymore after a series of unfortunate circumstances took place, but I hope he's having as much fun as Delphi is.
The fact that she ran to you when she got scared outside means that you're her safe space
Until she takes off and cant find her way back..I train macaw to free fly this could end in tears ..I pray it doesn't..but I've seen it over n over..
My baby flys a lot when she gets scared, but always flies back to me 💕
@@maddoxio yes its important to train them that your the safe place, I also have my burd to take a spot..its the next step from getting them to fly to a perch..its not just about them feeling safe at that point it's also them trusting your judgement..so if someone comes along with a huge dog..I'm 5 foot nothing..I was worried that a gog might be able to reach my bird on my shoulder so now I can tel him to fly to that roof and he will ..and sit there till i say he can move..I just feel safer been able to get him up out of the way,..the training is fun..I come across lots of situations and things I can use in his training that I can improvise to create a situation..by bird has gotten so good in the sky so fast..its amazing..I'd make a good macaw mammy ..
@@bigbiemacaw my cockatiel is harness trained and can’t fly far unfortunately
When a bird lies on their back and lets you scracth them, it meams they really trust you.
I hope so......My Conure Kimi hate when I do this to her:-)
Yep that's what that means! Count yourself VERY lucky.🤗
when any animal does that.....means the same-- its exposing the soft underbelly which is very vulnerable.....cats and dogs do same....
@@andreamoore6477 That's correct, a animal would never expose their vital organs to a stranger or predator. Trust 100%!
It’s submission and all animals will do it if they love and trust you ♡︎♡︎
That “It makes noise, Hell yea!” Moment, you could see how beautiful her feathers were.
This video made me so happy I had a green cheek conure that died last week, I thought she was only around 6 but we took her to the vet and she turned out to be almost 50! This reminds me of all the goofy times we had together, and introducing her to all the new things in the world for the first time. Your birdie looks so happy and well loved, thx for posting this
I’m sorry for your loss
It's crazy how you cant tell a birds age just by looking at them, or sometimes their gender
Wow, It looks like having a bird is a life time commitment, you gotta be sure about it!
50!! I--haw damn man.
I've only really kept hamsters, so I thought most smol animals like that only stuck around for several years
I'm so sorry . RIP. I bet he's resting, knowing that your loving him more than ever.
This video had my 20 yr old son literally saying through the whole thing....." awwwww, she's so sweet....awwww, ohhhhh my shez cute.....awwww, look at her go....she soo beautiful.....awwwww".

How's she doing now? I got one YESTERDAY!!
I am gonna say it now. Delphi is a world-class goober. Silly and sweet and just absolutely darling. You are raising her so wonderfully. It shows.
She is so adorable. Her being on her back is so precious
I just think she is so precious. Her love for you is so sweet
She's really cute, I also love how u take such good care of her
My heart
She's an adorable ball of fluff. I loved seeing her getting used to flying. She should be proud of her progress✌️
this is the cutest thing i’ve seen all week! i wish my parrots were this comfortable with humans :,)
They can be! You need to be patient and train them
Green cheeks are just such sweet birds that tend to warm up to people fast. They are such sweet little babies. Wonderful first birds for anyone who is new to them.
Delphi is like a little child...inquisitive and just extraordinary! How amazing is the relationship between Delphi and her owner.
Cherish every moment with ur pet. Gods most beautiful gift to every person who is lucky enough to have them in their lives.
this is the cutest thing ever i wanna cry when he got scared outside and quickly ran to hide in ur arms im crying
Thank you, Julia, for being such a kind, loving person. You are a really good mom!❤🦜❤🦜❤

I just adopted a rescue green cheek & he is the sweetest most cuddly bird I have ever had! Delphi is a beauty & precious!
I'd like to hug every borb in the word and give everyone of them a seed each. I love birbs so much

Some went to the living room, got up on her husband’s shoulder, a couple snuggled where they could, climbed in the blankets. some just wherever they could see the tv. One that had quite a character, full of personality and didn’t like everyone- it would go get in it’s cage and halfway pulled her cover down over the door so it would be dark. If it fell to the floor, oh my gosh, you would think something killed it. Someone would have to go in and not only attach the cover over the cage, but also adjust her inside little cotton bag so she could nest inside it. It was like you would start to walk out and she would squark until you finished your job. 🤣
Obviously, they had the wherewithal to afford all this and the caretaker to help. I don’t even know how many birds they had - it was a lot and most rescued babies. They did have a pair that every couple of years would have babies but then they just quit. Maybe they got older?? All their birds were very healthy, beautiful feathers, no bare spots. when it was time to lose their feathers, can’t think of it right now but they fed extra mashed boiled eggs more nuts, etc to make sure they had plenty of protein along with their regular high quality food and supplement. They made sure their nails were kept clipped so no pain or walking poorly, kept the cages clean. Had a large cage with a sand box in it so they could do dust bathes if they wanted. Out in aviary, they had fountains to bath in and I forgot the shower. one of the fountains was like a rain shower in our bathes but had those jets on the wall and they loved to fly through them especially the big birds. They had branches across here and there so they could rest on them and preen and sqooch down to the end so they could get right under the water to get drenched. What a hoot they were. And jealous darlings a couple could be.
She is seems so happy, you’re taking great care of her! Really cute
I love baby green cheeks! As a proud mom of a green cheek conure I am glad to see the little Delphi has a great mom!
I don't wanna be dramatic but I'd die for Delphi-
What a little cutie! Our Green cheek Loki is nearly 8 years old now and quite the character.
That conure is very cute! 😍 I have already haves a lovebird, she’s a girl! Once she trusted me, she began jumping on my head when I go walk around the house! Birds are beautiful and easy to take care of! ❤️
she looks so much happier and healthier now thanks to you
`` This is adorable - ``
Aww, such a precious little baby! The level of trust is so heart warming.
The "IT MAKES NOISE" part really cracks me up. Such heartwarming memories you have recorded together, and the edits had me giggling. I have a little lovebird and a macaw at home, and both also adore cuddles and just generally falling asleep on their humans. Lots of love from Brazil.
Soo amazing little creatures and very smart , they love thier humans. Love baths, cuddling very needy babies.
Soooo, Cute! Congrats on flying Delphi!
This vid watching Delphi and her owner bond was very sweet..... and they are both very beautiful. 👏
Awe the bb I have two birds at home they are the cutest lil things
Adorable....Our little
Sun Conure Rio is almost 5....love him to pieces....Enjoy!!!
When im ready for a bird im gonna divide my office into halves or fourths and make a giant cage for my birds to fly around in. One whole room is plenty of space to work with and make a terrarium cage that i can enter. Just change the bottom trays periodically.
OMG, what a gorgeous little birb. You look like you have an awesome bond with her. Very brave of you to take her outside like that. I know the free flight specialists say there isn't much risk of them flying off, but I just don't think I'd have the nerve. She looks so cute nestled into your neck and hiding in your sleeve. What a lovely video, really made me smile, thanks.
My 2 year old blue Quaker recently died and watching other birds is the only thing to keep my mind off it
Just FYI You have done a great job with Delphi. it shows you spend TONS of time with her. just the fact you have her flight trained, and that she lets you pet her while "asleep" shows it. a very well cared for and happy bird. ~Source~ my parents are Conure breeders we hand-feed a bunch of these little guys.
She’s so adorable omg 😭😭😭
She looks like the most happy bird ever.
aww i want one! so cute I love her personality. Also re there really no comments with 75k views??
Conures are so cute playful and fluffy :)
My bird would simply✨fly away✨ if we let her outside
So much patience.
Thanks for taking care.
I recently got a 7 month old green cheek conure, she's shy and scared of hands. What's the best advice you would give?
I have NEVER EVER seen a cutie cuddly bird like this!! Really enjoyed it and LOVE LOVE LOVE her! :))
Omg! I love these birds! You convinced me to get one. one question though: Do they ever get boring?
Thanks,
Henry
You are going to cry your heart out the day she will be with you no longer. I lost one of my parakeets this summer and it was one of the greatest pains I ever had.
Nice to see you got a cuddly one though. Those birbs are the best.
RUclips is getting really comfy with these double ads😐
It's only a matter of time before it's like television on RUclips .
This made me cry what a lovely video. It reminded me of my baby masked face love bird I got when I was seven named Clifford. Thank you for this! Show Delphi more as she grows❤️❤️❤️
She's so adorable. This is the second time hearing about a green cheek conjure parrot I seen today I watch another channel before this. I love hearing about different parrots. After all, I seen a lot at the zoo and on RUclips. You learn something new everyday.
He is so lovely!I Love him!♥️You are a good mum!♥️😃👍
She is so sweet and your doing a fantastic with her, we just brought home 4mth old baby last week, he , maybe lol is one of the sweetest birds I have ever had the pleasure of owning, they are so affectionate and love the right people, I hope you have many years with her❤
Your green cheek little baby was so sweet. How could anyone say anything bad.
Love!! 😍 Good job on your progress Delphi!! 👍
Just found your channel today! I love them! Watching you mother Delphi to learn to fly and help her learn about life. So precious. I missed having a baby. My Green Cheek was a rehome. I’ve had him for 5 years this coming March. I cannot touch him but he flys to me when asked. Can do a bit of target training. Is a Velcro bird. Just don’t touch. I miss being able to cuddle. I love how well you do with your birds. Thank you for sharing.
Beautiful and heartwarming video of Delphi and you. The two of you are a fantastic team. Thank you.
Baby birds are derpy in most adorable ways. :)
I got my cocktail 3 days ago, this showed me if I do everything right I can have this kind of loving bond 💕
Delphi is so lovely! Birds are cute as heck, thank you for sharing this.
Hello it is Senya Rich Pennington here very lovely with your new conure parrot The parrot loves you so sweetly Have a good day. 💕✨💜✨💕
Sweet little baby! Such an adorable little ball of feathers :))
Prachtige, leerzame presentatie die blijk geeft van veel liefde, kundigheid en geduld in de omgang met deze unieke vogel!
I recently got a cockatiel and he/she is still a little afraid of me, but not as much as when i brought him/her. Watching you and Delphi just makes me happy. :)
I also had a friend at school named Delphi
Your doing great! Delphi is obviously very loved. And that is what counts.
Thank you for the smiles
I loved the flying lessons. Adorable
I only just stumbled across this video in my recommendations, but Delphi looks to be in great hands with a happy new home and family who will treasure her! I hope all are continuing to do well since the original posting of this video. Thank you for sharing!
Oh my, she is absolutely the bees knees gorgeous x
I smiled so hard throughout this entire video.
Thank you for sharing your happiness❤
Had one of them once. He was such a hyperactive little guy, couldn't sit still for a moment.
Had to give him up because I couldn't afford him anymore after a series of unfortunate circumstances took place, but I hope he's having as much fun as Delphi is.
I love her colors, so vibrant and she is so precious
è meraviglioso l'affetto che vi lega.
You are absolutely adorable !
Looking forward to next vids
beautiful parrot, they can get very emotionally attached to their owners. Quite intelligent creatures , easy to train. Love the name too. :)
So lovely. God bless you and Delphi. I want to cry . I left behind in Venezuela 2 of then with my labs also. 10 years that i do not see my home again.
