Aaargh!! It’s Albert!!! I was up at 3am Aussie time watching this so excited!! Happy to report that Albert is getting stuck into his chop, he has it for two meals a day even though it’s mostly flung all over the room, stuck to his beak and then wiped all over me I’m sure some must be going in! (His daily weight is very stable) I’m also offering the millet much higher so his lunging behaviour has stopped, we’ve also trained him to go back into his cage with clicker training and rewards. I can’t tell you how much difference that’s made to all of us especially now that he’s not a baby anymore and really getting his own mind! Seeing this again has really inspired us to start getting proper training “sessions” going again... I’m sure Albert is convinced that his slaves have been slacking off...
What a lovely little bird. Even his naughty-ness is cute :D!
Thanks for allowing us to watch this training session and share in the learning. Albert is so cute, it's amazing you don't go " Ohhhh, never mind the trick sweetie, just have the treat anyway"
He is the CUTEEEEST! ❤️
judith weymark it’s always so tempting!! I was on my best behaviour for Dave and Jamie, I only accidentally give them to him now when he tricks me... slowly becoming less and less as I catch on to him! So speedy....
@@EmMa-hg3ql Same! My green cheek can snag a seed at the speed of light.
Yes finally small bird squad
Did u catch a bird?
It’s so true, little parrots are just as trainable as the bigger parrots, but they are fast, you really have to watch body language. Albert is a fantastic little bird, great partnership.
Budgies are a challenge but mine are quite eager to work for treats.
I've had great succes training my parrotlets
Yes often we lovebird keepers get bit before managed to read their body language :'( we also cannot see them pupil dilating since their eyes are dot black. Doing my best with mine tho hehe
I have two lovebirds myself! I have a hard time training them and this is actually the first video where one gets trained. This video is really helpful to me! Thanksss!
i have 12 of them 🤪
Need to have more lovebird training video!
Yay small birds! ♡
A Lovebird!! My favorite!! These little guys are so overlooked in the parrot world as pets. Thanks for posting this class so we could see this cutie and get some tips on training as well. 😊
This channel has been very helpful with my 7 year old green cheek conure adoptee. I've managed to avoid many mistakes and I now have a very happy obedient bird.
YAY!! Finally a small bird training! I have a lovebird also.
He is a cutie! And it looks like I've got a lot of work to do with my lovebird
Love birds are adorably proportioned....borbs
Another smal bird! Dave and Jamieleigh make it look so easy! I like the tip to give the treat from above.
To be honest, I didn't think you could train a love bird, but this little one seems eager to learn. Always happy to see the human parents love their little feathered child to get the best training. Thank you!
you can train all your parrots... and pretty much any other animal too, as long as you find out what motivates them. i mean, obviously, you need to pick tricks that the animal can do and understand, but it's certainly possible.
tzxazrael, I'm beginning to agree with your statement, and having Jamie&Dave from birdtricks, makes it a much smoother journey.
Any parrot can be trained. For lovebirds if you want them to be more trained i suggest you raise the baby, because if it's too old you can't tame it anymore (i mean you can but it'll be so hard). :)
AWWWW, that is my Keeco!! I have one that looks just like that. I call him my Keeks. He flies to me all the time just like that.
Lovebirds are the prettiest parrots, often overlooked coz it's size and cost. It's aesthetically perfect.
They're like little jewels.🥰🥰
I love training session videos I love watching the birds and owners learn.
Oh, Albert is adorable!!! So friendly and colorful!
So happy to see a smaller bird in the master class here. I was really beginning to wonder if a smaller one can be trained. Thank you so much for the hope.
Lovebirds are so adorable! My first parrot love ❤️🧡
Let’s go small birds!! These are my favorite
What a cute little bird!!! Albert is so precious!!!💕💖💕💖💕💖💕💖💕💖💕💖💕💖💕
Wow - thx for showing, I didn't think of clicker training my lovebird. He's a cutie and think he'd really like it. Btw, Albert is adorable!!
Clicker training is great with all animals but I have found its especially effective in smaller birds 😊
I have a budgie and I have awalys referred to millet as birdie crack cause just the sight of it makes them literally do anything. I have actually been bit because I was to slow to get it into place once the bird saw it
I have lovebird, they are very smart, perfectly adapt on your lifestyle, when I go to bed, or wake, without screaming if I want to sleep longer😁 they can learn everything spontaneously.. Perfect little bird 😍
What an amazing clever little bird. I would love to se more training of lovebirds ❤️❤️❤️
I just bought some of your pellets for my baby bird, can’t wait to see how much he changes just by a healthier diet! I have him eating vegetables and fruits but just now about to start with the pellets!!! Thank you so much for making videos you are the reason my bird is such a kind and well mannered bird!! Keep up the amazing work you are helping a lot of birds who need it!! Love the video!!
I'm sure you will be happy with the pellets they are great. My conure loves them. Good luck!
Thank you! I’m glad that your birds like the pellets. I’m just hoping my bird does too!! 😬😂
That birdie is so cute! And also - proof that you can and should train small birds too, not just the big/medium ones. Is it just because they are a type of parrot? I can't imagine training a sparrow like that for example. I suppose there are behaviors that you can train to absolutely anybody with a brain, but not this "easy" maybe. P.S. I just love how at 12:43 it says "Albert's humans", not owners :) :)
I'm pretty sure you can teach finches. People manage to target train giant lizards. Even train them to hunt for their human. Birds are smarter than reptiles in general. I'm pretty sure that statement that you can train anything with a brain is correct!
You would most likely teach something like a sparrow to target with a different part of their body (such as a foot) since they have such little beaks. Even fish learn targeting, spinning, jumping through hoops.
I target trained my red eared slider (found in the garden), but it took him 2 months to figure it out, versus a minute or so with the 8 lovebirds I have trained.
This was super helpful. I’m quite stuck training my lovebird at the moment, and since she’s my first lovebird I don’t have prior knowledge of the species. One of the worst things too which I wasn’t aware of before I got her is that it is so, so hard to find training resources online that tailor to lovebirds. It’s either budgies, or big parrots. 😕 thank you for this little snippet, it’s been very helpful. If you ever train more lovebirds in the future please share some tips on your channel, I’m sure many people would be very grateful for the help!
I miss my lovebird..She flew away back in November 😔
Birdtricks methods work well for lovebirds! Lovebirds are incredibly smart and learn quickly, but yes, they move fast, and you have to be quick to click at the right time. Using their methods, I have trained 8 lovebirds over the last 7 years to target, step up, step off, fly to me, fly to a perch, allow me to touch their heads, wave, and give kisses. I have captured scratching, puffing up, yawning, and wing stretching. One lovebird, I trained to ring a bell with his foot, another, I trained to pick up a Kinderjoy ball and put it in a Kinderjoy basketball hoop. The treats: a small pinch of white millet or canary seed, or a small piece of pine nut/walnut (to introduce these, the nut size has to be similar to the size of a white millet seed).
'Albert's humans' oh my god that is adorable
so adorble..!! what a cute relationship that they have!!
Albert! I LOVE THAT NAME. What a wonderful pair. I love her dress too, it's so fun!
Capri’s giggle made me giggle. 😂
Thank you for sharing training a smaller bird! I have two pyrrhura's and I recognize how smart and fast they are. I personally like that, and they are also very willing to train.
My love birds & I really needed this video.
I love this!!
What an awesome video! Albert is the cutest🥰 his progress was amazing!
Thanks for sharing, I learnt a lot from this video:)
I had the sweetest lovebird for 23 years. He lived all my family. RIP Elvis❤️❤️❤️
I can relate to this woman! My lovebird is 4 months old and he's so fast! The tip about offering the treat is really helpful. Johari does the same thing where he will step onto the treat. I'm going to try holding his reward higher up from now on. More of these small bird training sessions, please!!!
I have to interject that having a small bird as a class pet was the best decision I EVER made in teaching. My budgie would ask every single morning “wanna go to school?!?” and LOVED the kids attention. The kids also learned respect for animals and I have hundreds of letters from parents and kids about how our budgie was the highlight of the year. He was kept out of reach in his cage until he was let out, in a very controlled environment. I’d never want a pet I had to leave alone 8 hours a day - they so badly want to be with their crew. I hope schools read up on how positive a class pet is for children’s emotions.
Awwe,so cute! And it's good get that training down;lovebirds have such a large beak in proportion to their little body and can deliver quite a bite.
He is sooooo adorable
SO very CUTE!! Sending this to a friend that had lovebirds.
Loved this video! Sweet little one. So reminds me of my lovebird. What a cheeky little thing 😂😂 really shows how trainable little birds are the same way big birds ♥️ What a 🌟!!!
Yay small birds! I have a Canary Winged Parakeet & a budgie that are considered small birds. I also have my cockatiel Pikachu 🖤 I hope you do a video on them 🐦
This is so helpful. My nanday conure gets aggressive during training if I'm not quick enough she just moves so fast and treats seem to have a value of 1000 to her lol 😂
Ah, Albert! What a cute little rascal. My green cheek moves quickly like that. I've not been able to train "wave" or "shake hands" at all with him.
Really enjoyed seeing training with a Lovie ❤
I love these videos, because i always learn so much and see what kind of mistakes I am also making
I have a lovebird too and he's soooo fast and very eager to train😂 He normally learns a new trick in about 1-2 trainingsessions🙂
OMG. He is so adorable!!! 🥰
So cute
I knew this was filmed in straya when I saw the Gorman dress in the thumbnail hahaha
Loved this video!
I’m getting a lovebird soon been watching some of your videos and they are really helpful
Awww how cute. Reminds me of the two I had (Bonny & Clyde).
I’ve wanted to see a love bird video for so long! I’m so happy it’s finally happened 😂
My love bird gives me all kinds of trouble during training. He’s my Velcro bird.. can’t turn/ walk away from him without him flying as fast as he can to me.. I watched the conure video and I’m trying to apply those training techniques.
Wow!! what an awesome training session! I wonder if giving kiwi less food before training would help us! Thanks for this video!
Such a sweet lil guy
Omg in the background that bird that said “hello” scared the hell out of me that bird sounds exactly like my sulphur crested cockatoo like omg XD
Sooo cute. I learned so much! I have small birds too and they climb on the treat too. Hand position up high is so much better. Its hard to find treats for small birds too.
What a good birdie!!
That’s nice to watch. Tomorrow I get also a love bird baby. Same colour. I can learn from this. Greetings from Belgium
Super cute!!! :)
I have this exact lovebird coloring. A darker factor peach face and "Baby" has that same personality, he wants to go to everyone and love everything. He also insists on being friends with my whole flock. From my conure to my macaw. He kind of adopted my macaw as his doll at this point 😂
That could make them a celebrity in Australia....Hey, I was Nanny to Capri. You know, Birdtricks human child. LOL 💞
Verry cute bird.. i love it.
i learned so much now, tomorrow im gonna get a clicker and those treats and gonna try getting my lovebird on her new playground whit diffrent toys! awesome video! thank you greetings from The Netherlands!
Omg he is so cute!
Albert is so cute
Pleaassee I hope theres another lovebird training video ❤
We have a jenday conure that is so smart! He is always up for a training session and retains things so well! I grew up with my dad having two U2’s and always said I would NEVER adopt/purchase a cockatoo. Welllllll now our local rescue has a female LSC2 that was from a resort and We are going to meet her at the end of the month. Any tips on mtg her for the first time? I know the time and patience that goes into having a too and growing up with them I always said I’d never have one lol but her story just wormed her way into my heart but I am so nervous for our first meeting 😵
What happened at the meeting? Did you end up adopting her?
Lovebird squad
My Lovebirds always go crazy and climb around their cage because they hear the other bird chirping in the beginning of the video.
Lovebirds are so mischievous.
my bird needs this
You know why the call them love birds? Because you can't help but love those birds!
yes i need this vid
I have the same one❤️
Very useful! thanks so much. I have a 3month old Lovebird. VERY bitey! Very energetic. I'm trying training, but my goodness, he's a handful. Ty for the info on increasing the reward level. At this stage, with him being so bitey, he just flies to the hand that has the treats and tries to bite hard, trying to get it. -.- I'm going to assume it's because he's a toddler...
I also have lovebirds I never get to train them but tomorrow I am going to try you video thanks for the video bye
My cockatiel flew from home by accident and I miss him so much
Hey I love watching your videos! I just got a Budgie about two weeks ago, she is around 3 months old. I want to form a bond with her and take her out of the cage without her flying away. Is it possible to train a parakeet and how can I do this?
cutieeee 🖤🖤🖤
I have a green PF lovebird like that too, his name is Ocha and I love him so dearly. Funny when I watch the video, looking at that bird, I knew he isn't my bird even tho the colors and species are the same... Do owners develop instinct to recognize which bird is theirs? :))
Hey, can you do a video on extreme phobia? I tried to help my aunt with her AG and it was too terrified to take food by hand, bowl, or by my aunt. I target trained the other AG after getting it familiar with the target stick but I've never come across any bird as phobic as the first
Smol birb
Can you want make a budgie video?
OMG budgies are so much fun and so smart. I spend most of my time with my Quaker but I got a budgie named lemons 5 years ago and He is one of my favorite pets of all time ever.
Hi! I have a lovebird and I've been trying to train him thr best I could and watching your videos to help me out! The one problem I'm trying to fix is every time I hold or give him food he will attack me any tips to help me out or just to help with biting
Hello bird friends. i have a 3 month old female lovebird. i was feeding her the chick food mix that i fed her with syringe thingy. a little under a month ago i started trying to introduce the smallest pellets available, and it's avian vet tested, but she doesn't seem to have the strength to bite into them, so i blend them into powder and i feed her the way i used to with the baby mix, but this time i feed her with a teaspoon.. she is my first bird, and i want to do it right. does any of you know what i can do to make her eat the pellets as they are, and what age should they be able to bite into pellets or overall just get their full beak strength?
I have 2 lovebirds who are 8 months old and they are not tamed and I don’t know how to tame birds..... I tried to sit next to them every day and put my hands in their cage for like 10 mins twice a day for almost 1 week and nothing changes and I don’t know what to do
Finally
What is the purpose of the stick training?
5:54 you see that ring neck in that small cage
I would love to see you work with smaller parrots more often. I don't have enough space for a larger parrot but I'm gathering these techniques would work for budgies as well.
LthrWrstlr1 we don’t see people bring in the small ones to classes very often at all.
@@BirdTricks I would love to see someone bring you two budgies! Mine have been such a challenge to train, I think because their flock instinct is so strong, and they basically have ADHD and can't stay still. I know it would be better to train one at a time, but I live in an open concept loft and they can see each other at all times. On the bright side broccoli florets are their level 10 treat. Thanks for sharing this, Albert is so cute, his little sound effect when he flies to someone is almost like his own clicker.
@@BirdTricks I guess it seems more worth the expense for expert training for larger (more expensive) birds but from this video I can tell these techniques would probably work for any type of parrot. Just the little guys are way more energetic and harder to keep up with. LOL
@@LthrWrstlr1 Exactly! I wish we saw more little guys for sure.
@@BirdTricks I used to breed parrots as a teenager (budgies, cockatiels, rosellas and love birds) but gave that up when I moved to Boston. I'm thinking of getting a pair of budgies again (from a pet store) because I miss having birds and I also live in a small in the city. I was thinking of using this method to initially get them comfortable with me. ruclips.net/video/xNlnBd-18Zg/видео.html Then use your techniques to train them further. Any advice beyond that? Would the chop diet be the same for budgies?
What can I do about my bird flying away? I had his wings cut but still kinda flies away. I wanna train him but that's what stopping me
A diffrent room to sleep in for the hormones. Why is that? Missed that part in the video. Love the content and great tips and tricks
Any reputable breeder for peach faced love birds ? That ship? I currently live in anchorage Alaska and for some reason it’s very difficult to find a breeder please help
I just Got a lovebird.
It's a baby.
1 more week of dropper feeding aswell as seed.
I've only had him for a day. He's still scared. Keeps flying away from me. I've been sitting with him. Patting him on the head.
Is there anything I should do to him him trust me more? :)
