This is very reassuring for those of us with inconsistent work schedules. It's nice to know it's good to have a range rather than exact feeding times.
I was feeding them at different timings unaware that it was beneficial and actually feeling guilty about it 😂 thanks for this!
Same with the sleep!! I work a job that gets out extremely late and I’m not a morning person. I’m sick of my brother telling me she should be up and fed by 8:30 when her schedule is sleep until 11 or even 12😅😅
With horses the consistently inconsistent feeding time even helps with reducing colic so maybe helpful in that way for parrots too.
Oh! Interesting how does it help reduce the chance of colic?
@@joebean3615 Helps to reduce the body anticipating feeding and level out levels would be my guess. It helps with stress behaviors too which reduces colic chance as well. They are not just sitting waiting for food and getting mad it is 2 minutes late. So maybe it is just stress reduction.
Barns where feeding time were hard line 5:00 would have more trouble if they fed at 5:30 than when we just fed at the end of the day after everyone was finished and cooled down. So that is a factor too I guess.
@@Whateverhasbeenmynameforyears right, cool
Thanks for answering
Thank you for the reminder! I was totally thinking today how my bird's screaming when i get home and go upstairs to shower, gives me anxiety. I think its as you said, shes expecting everything to be on time so shes upset. She also gets upset if im not home on time 😅. (i get notifications to my phone when noise or talking occurs)
I'm retired and have no family. Having a parrot keeps ME on a steady schedule. When the alarm goes off at 5:30 I cant just just turn it off and sleep in. I have to get up for my boy.
I love how I always watch your list videos and go like "Yeah, I do that one right. Yup. I knew this one. Did it too. Yess, I'm so good at this- Wait- I should what- Oh, I fucked up" 🤣
Exactly! I do that too.
Excellent information thank you
This is especially important for those of us running rescues 😂 having 17+ birds is crazy sometimes so having schedules for cleaning is super important.
Mine can get fed as early as 4am if we are traveling and sometimes as late as 2-3am when we work late. They also get worked with out of the cage completely randomly. And theres NO screaming from any of our birds once we starting doing things this way.
I'm so GLAD you made this
video. I was feeling "guilty"
about NOT following a SET
schedule with my new baby
bird. I suffered an injury to
my hand, and that changed
BOTH our schedules, not for
the better... or so I thought.
Now I can move on to intro-
ducing your Summer SFS, I
sure hope it arrives today!!!
Thank you, Jamie 🙂✌💚
My parrots are on a schedule. They get up at 11 am. The get fed soon after. At 2 pm they get a nutriberry. They get out of their cages after that. Then wet do a bit of practice. They go into their cages at 8 pm for their millet and lights out at 9 pm. I see very little hormonal behaviour because they get 14 hours of sleep. But if I have a migraine and don’t get them up at 11, they don’t make much noise until I open the door and I turn on the light. They are not noisy and some rarely come out of their room.
I feed Roudybush and feed them cauliflower, broccoli, peas, carrots, spinach, sprouts, maybe egg, maybe pasta and either apple or peach or berries or a mixture. I make foraging toys, and replace as they destroy them. I have toys on the tree and play stand.
What brand nutriberry do you get?
Also fruit shouldn’t be given daily because of its high sugar content like 2-4 times a week
because the nutriberry brands I’ve read have terrible stuff in, there just not necessary
Amazing piece of advice! Thank you 😊
Love your information even though I don't have a bird. Thank you, Jaime.
Yes!
This is an awesome video (yet again)
Having an inconsistent consistent schedule is very important I’ve been wanting a video on this subject for a while because I think it’s a under-used tool thank you Jamie your amazing
This video is really helpful to me as it made me realise how many habits i need to improve on! Thank you so much 😊
It's hard not to fall into a routine for feeding time. My birds know as soon as I wake up I have to get ready and go to work, and in that small window of time, they scream until food is served 🙄🙄🙄😬😬😬
Well, that’s what Jamie is talking about…it’s not good
My special needs birds stay in the house. They have been working on getting me on a schedule lol. They have decided that 7:30 is undisputedly the time I must feed them. Not only feed them but I have to stay up with them as well. I have a heavily plucked citron cockatoo that I started giving a kiss and face rubs before bed every night and if I forget to do it, she wanders through the house to remind me of my error.
"we all have that friend that enjoys cleaning"
Hey that's me! 🙋♀️🤣
I still slack sometimes though! I love my schedules and routines but little things can throw me off lol, but I do what I can when I can and the critters are all healthy and well adjusted :)
Hello Joyce, how're you doing today...?
I have beer had trouble getting my birds into their cages. I have a short perch on each door and have taught them to go there to come out, train, get treats or go back in.
PLEASE I NEED HELP

Pls pls
I have a squirrel dish attached to a tree which is usually splattered with bird poop. I have to scrap it off, it really hard to clean pigeon poop.
My husband comes home around 6:30 every day. The birds will fly over to the door to scream in anticipation of him coming through the door at that time. If he’s 5-30 minutes late, they spend almost all of that time screaming for him, especially if they heard a door or footsteps in the hallway of our condo building. Not sure how to fix this, as he can’t get a varied schedule, and there’s mutual love between him and the birds
Do you have any discount codes for the birdtricks store 🧐
I don't know where else to go to ask this, so that is why I'm asking here.
I have very recently acquired a total of 4 conures. Three from one individual and the other one from someone different. There are some major trust issues with the one, and some "unsure" issues with two of the others. The final conure will step up, but is picking up the "negative" behavior's from the others.
I don't know what to do or even what the proper food is the them. I want to provide a healthy, happy, safe environment where they can thrive and allow their real birdness to be expressed. PLEASE help me by telling me what food, toys, treats, training materials etc. that would help me to give my feathery babies exactly what they should have to thrive.
Thank you ❤️
We're retired so our caique is out of her cage all day... She does have a strict sleep schedule in her sleep cage in her own room. When she is out of the cage during the day she hangs out in the sun room a lot or helps with chores 😂 she loves laundry 😂 sometimes she doesn't like going into her big cage during the day if we both need to leave the house... But if we were to put her in a cage while we're both here she will just scream and have a fit and I cannot listen to that all day
I’m unfortunately one who has to have a schedule. If I don’t feed them the same time every morning and evening, they don’t eat. I do change it up on the weekends, but during the week, it’s our only choice.
mmm sounds really good but I am a teacher so I need to feed my budgies between 7:00 to 7:30 am before I go to work.
I’m also a teacher, so I feel your limitations with this. I noticed it’s helpful to feed at different times between the 7-7:30 time frame, feed at different times outside of this schedule on weekends, and during holidays/summers when we have time off. My husband and close neighbor friend have different schedules then I do, so I involve them with the feeding and care of my birds. Good for the birds to be familiar and somewhat bonded to other people who can help step in when your sick, in hospital or traveling and they know how to care for your babies. It’s very reassuring.
@@cristinaholland6259amazing idea!
@@cristinaholland6259 Thank you! These are good ideas! 🥰
so mixing up the feeding schedule is all fine and dandy if you are home all day. But if we work it usually has to be the same times every day. I feed my Hahn's his pellets at 5:30am every day when I leave for work and then when I get home around 2:30pm he gets his chop. And he doesn't actually eat much of either but somehow seems to maintain his weight. But then he sleeps from 5p - 5a every day. It's a tough schedule but it has to be done this way. Is this ok for what I am doing?
🤗👍
How do you encourage your birds (like your african grey) to bathe more often? I live in Sweden so its pretty cold most of the year so my birds typically only enjoy bathing in the summer and just seem uncomfortable when i try to mist them at other times...
Here is my playlist on teaching bathing to birds that should be super helpful with this. ruclips.net/video/XYG74yhZU2g/видео.html
@@BirdTricks Thank you! Will check it out.
This is kinda off topic but I was wondering if you could help me?
I am in year 7 now and wanting to get a bird in around 5-6 months so when I'm in year 8 and was wonder if a cockatoo could happily live in my family (we do have 3 dog but they are not aggressive at all). I have done HEAPS of research and plan to do lots more, I have had three budgies in the past that my dogs didn't really care about at all. I know that cockatoos can be very prone to feather plucking but it would be out of the cage from when I got home to when it was time for bed 4-7 hours and also want to free flight train it somehow through a club or something.
Or I was thinking an Amazon parrot, they seem smaller and possibly more suited to my family.
Or do you have a "better" bird in mind?
We do live in Australia if that helps at all.
I love you guys and your birds so much🤍🤍
Thanks in advanced

Hello Elizabeth, how're you...
i'm so guilty of letting my bird out the moment i get home , thanks for the advice
What do you do about mosquitoes around your birds when they are outside? Is west Nile or any other similar diseases not a concern to our parrots?
Hello Deborah, how're you doing today??
One bird(Amazon) doesn’t like bath?
nah I feed him when I wake up early
I have a problem where it’s really cold and I don’t have adequate accommodation to put them in a garage separate etc, so bring them inside so he doesn’t freeze. But then he is around the noise and his sleep gets affected.
I live in Australia and the temperature is 17°. Is this too cold ? Can I leave them out in this temperature at night?
If it’s sunny then it’s fine to leave them out but if it’s a rainy/really windy 17c then no I wouldn’t
I’d say bring them out as much as you can but keep them in when cold (in winter they’ll get less sun but even just for 15 mins is better than none
Hi, my red lory has been so abnormal recently. He was super active, but not anymore, he plucks his feather on legs and belly. He is even scared of me now after I took him to vet. I worried he might be sick, but vet said fine. He eats fine, movements are nimble, he is just quiet and not playful anymore. I wonder what’s going on?
Sounds like something is definitely up! Did the vet have any suggestions? I wonder about something new in the environment that might be an irritant? Like something making him feel dirty causing the excessive feather attention. We have a household dangers download on my website BirdTricks.com that might give you some insight to what it could be. birdtricksstore.com/products/household-dangers?_pos=1&_sid=8af7296a8&_ss=r It's a free download.
Food ?, do you not give smaller birds like cockatiels and budgies an organic seed mix that you make at home? Is this a transition food and not to be given long term?
The recommend ratios of food for small species such as budgies and cockatiels is 45% Seasonal Feeding System, 45% our Organic pellets, 10% homemade seed (and grain for cockatiel) mix. The seed mix should be offered through foraging or training.
@birdtricks thanks for the answer. Really appreciate it. I have been wondering , what sign to look for , to know that we have a success in the diet conversion, coz some of my flock seem to prefer the fresh vegie over the Top's pellets in some days . Yes not every day. :)
What can I do to get a rescue bird to let me hold her, clean her cage and get her (both) to get a bath?
Hello Laurie, how're you doing today!!!
My daughter has a umbrella cockatoo and is trying so HARD TO GET BETTER WITH THE BIRD THE BIRD ATTACKS MY SIN IN LAW, MY GRANDKIDS SHE GOT HER THE BIRD IS 8 AND SHE NEEDS HELP !!
