  • Today Sabrina has brought in her blue and gold macaw to work with us on permission based training and simple step ups. Allowing your bird to say no will increase the likelihood of it saying yes!

    Wished I’d learned this 15 years ago with my first bird. Oh the mistakes I made! This should be required viewing for all new and current bird caregivers ❤.

      Yes, I feel the same way with the little budgie I had once. Admittedly I was still a child and this was before the internet, but I feel so guilty and ashamed thinking about all the ways in which I and my family failed her, even though I loved her like a sister. She got 14 years old,

    It’s so awesome what y’all do! For the birds, the humans, we all deserve love & respect, and it’s charming to watch. ❤

    My 3 year old eclectus came from a good home. Yet they were a bit old school and stated they just grabbed her or pryed her feet off of whatever. Long story short I needed more training! I am gratefull for finding you guys. She now comes on car rides with me! Permission based not domination based. Target training progressed into fun wich progressed into her trusting me and actually wanted to step up which progressed into her now only wanting me to get to my wife 😢 whatever we have only come this far because of the important advice you guys give!

    Thanks to Dave & Jamieleigh, I did a version of this with two rescue CAGs. We did LOTS of targeting for what seemed like a l o n g time. I didn't even ask them to step up. We were building trust and I was learning and respecting their No. The first one spontaneously stepped onto my hand, when I reached into his cage for his food bowl, calm as a cucumber. The second one was more like Dave's demo. Point is, they KNEW I knew and respected their No and so could trust me. BT for the win! Again.

    I checked to buy/adopt an old macaw that likes me and was crushed by the price. There would have been nothing left of my savings for my own , parrot food, toys and vet care.
    Everybody else is ( rightfully ) scared to get bit. I can still visit and play with it whenever. I'm lucky/grateful for that.

      Try more websites to adopt! I used to want a macaw too. I’m talking I was dead set on it for years. SO glad I didn’t end up getting one lol. I have two green cheek conures❤

    I agree, birds are highly observative creatures. They need to want to interact for their own reasoning.

    • @kaitlyncharney8488
      @kaitlyncharney8488 Месяц назад

      My comment was on needing to interact for their own reasons. That’s what all animals do. Like jellyfish don’t really choose to interact or probably observe at all. But even butterflies can be trained

    I sooooooooo needed this reminder today, Dave!! Bookmarking this video and making a monthly calendar event with the link to revisit it because this changes our training sessions EVERY TIME I become intentional with the thought "Do you want to step up?"
    Thank you!!!

    Tonight I went and asked Loki if he wanted to come hang out with me in the living room. He put one foot on my arm and then gave me little nibbles on my wrist. I've learned that he's saying no, but you're still cool.

    How about saving parrot nature environments. If you put as much enthusiasm into the environment for parrots rather than capture birds who are not domesticated we would have less endangered birds

    No offense but "men as trainers but we do see it with females as well"
    I'm not a native English speaker but I find the term female a little bit degrading compared to men or women 😶 (I hope I don't understand this sentence)

      Sounds like your problem not ours. Why dont you take it to a PHYCogicolist youtube channel and ask why do you have so many hang-ups, why are you offended by normality, how did you become an overbearing pig?
