- Today we are working in a masterclass with Tony and his young female eclectus parrot Jellybean. Tony has been considering training Jellybean for freeflight so today we are working on indoor flight training skills to see where they're at and how we can help.

Around 10-11 mins in the video Jamie said jelly bean shows certain behaviors when she’s most willing to fly and then it happened. That was awesome to see. Jamie called it! I also thought it was really cool that Dave showed how it’s possible to transition from a bird landing on someone’s arm to landing on the hand.
Good owner 👏👏 get that man a high reward treat
Isn't he great?! You will be seeing more of Tony on the channel! 🥰
these ECLECTUS parrots are one of the smartest most colorful, best-talking parrots, they are super affectionate and so awesome
LOVED seeing a longer training video. I always learn so much. Thanks Dave and Jaime.
Yay! Thanks 🥰
Loved it ! Please keep them coming 😊😊
I have a female ekkie skittles who was a rescue found outside with wings tail and BELLY feathers clipped. Vet thinks she’s about ten and once feathers grew back in she has learned to fly for transportation but still won’t fly for fun (which is understandable). Because of the fact she really has to think about take off I have created a second cue to let her know I will be asking for a recall. For instance the second I give her a treat for her trick I tell her to “get ready” while I walk away. If I walk out of her bubble for any other reason like to have a conversation with someone or get more treats I don’t say that. So she now will begin to find her take off groove while still eating the treat in the anticipation of needing to take off. So by the time I get where I am going I can turn and call her name and she is ready for take off the second I call. This eliminated the delayed take off after calls because no matter how many times she takes off of a certain place she still has to figure out which side or place is best for her. This also taught her to eat quicker because she’s using her mind while doing so. If anyone has a bird who has to think before take off make sure you walk away at times without saying get ready (or whatever words you use) so they understand get ready is NOT the cue to fly. It just means I will be asking for a flight in a min. I also do recalls randomly (not in a training session) where I don’t say get ready but I understand it will be slightly slower recall because she will have to asses her takeoff. So in those instance I call “skittles” (which is the cue) and once I see her taking off I THEN hold up my hand for her to land. This way she knows for sure the cue is her name NOT the hand staying up.
Awesome!! The sayings you use help me so much...eg...if I experience failure I have pushed too far too fast.
Great job Tony and Jellybean!
Well done! Where was this class? I have 3 eckies that would benefit along with me
I have a girl eclectus. She is currently ill. She is biting her feathers. She's going to have a coil in tomorrow as her blood levels are high and she might be getting ready to lay eggs. The vet says that might be causing her stress. She is 5 this year. I love eclectus parrots.
that is so cool and awesome
So cool 👍👍❤️❤️
Hi my Bird friends. It’s been a couple years since I’ve been on TikTok. I hope you remember me. NanaJ. I’m looking forward to catching up with all your videos. And, there is a chance I might be moving to Utah. Love all of you!🦜🦜🦜🦜NanaJ❤
There seemed to be times his hand might have been too high for her comfort, particularly when he was closer to the stand. Could there have been improved results, if not at least parallel results, simply by starting closer and lower?

I'm not sure why ekkies have a reputation for eating slowly or being slow. My male eclectus eats so quickly and does tricks so quickly that it is hard to slow him down because he's so hyper. He's often trying to do two tricks at once or in a row to get treats faster and he's very impatient. What to do about these ekkies?! Does Tony live anywhere near Kentucky?
Eclectus boys, green in color, seem to me to be better trained.
Totally false. Each bird is different and the training is different for each bird. Male or female, makes no difference. The consistency of the owner and motivation of the bird is what matters.
The males are typically easier to train and more eager to please due to their more social nature in the wild. There are active females that are more willing than others, but the males are statistically easier to work with.
