Caique Parrot Biting, Screaming and Hormones | Caique Survival Tips!

- Do you have a Caique Parrot that is Biting, Screaming, and on Hormone overload? Can Parrot Hormones be Dangerous? A hormonal caique can be dangerous to the Human, its self, or other birds! Twice a year, my male caique parrot Puffy becomes dangerous to other birds in the bird room and me! When Puffy Caique becomes hormonal, it's confusing for him and painful. Puffy my caique parrot's Gonads gets so large inside his body; it pushes on his organs, causing pain and makes him super aggressive. Poor Puffy cannot help how or what he feels. My Cockatoo Victoria becomes hormonal October - May every year. Many birds become very sick or even die from being egg bound. I think the nesting season is hardest on caiques and cockatoos. It's almost impossible to keeps these wild animals happy and healthy in captivity. I have a few tips to share that can help you and your caique parrot during the nesting season.

Great video. I considered a caique, but after watching some of your videos, decided they were too high energy for me! You are a brave woman filming with three of the little rascals!
Sarah Kavanagh So happy our videos helped you make a decision. This video was hard to film!! 😂
What did you end up going with instead?
@@rashasarandah1695 cockatiels - much gentler ☺
Ikke så rart med tre stykker,jeg har en og det er nok.👋🏻🫡🇳🇴
I love watching your videos with my caique Westley. He's 6 and I've had him since he was weaned. His hormones kicked in at 3 years old and it was a major adjustment for us both but we got through it with lots of love, patience and understanding. I love my Wes but agree caiques are a handful and not for everyone.
Westley sounds like a sweet boy with an awesome mama! Yes! Patience and understanding are what it takes.
Very informative! Caiques definitely look like they require a lot of hard work and patience, but I'll bet they are totally worth it!
Healing2Suffer X8 Thank you! I love my Energizer Bunnies!
OMG April....I haven’t laughed this much in ages. I love all the information you give, and I love watching the birdie language between Maui and Bailey-Anna. Props for getting through the video!!! ❤️
Bernadette Sikiotis Thank you!!!! ♥️♥️♥️ Get ready for a video that makes this one look tame tomorrow!!!
This is very timely advice for me, thank you so much! I don't have a caique but my little Canary winged parakeet Clover is coming up on 9 months so I know this hormone issues are coming down the pike. You're such a great parrot ambassador! I love that you stress that each bird has its own cage no matter how friendly they may seem with each other. And stress that getting your bird a buddy is not the answer. Thanks again and good luck with your troop, I love your videos!
Thank you ❤️ So happy you found this video helpful. Canary winged parakeets are so cute!
Your videos are the real deal. I love them!
Def hilarious and educational. Never in my life did I think one day I would watch a 15min video about parrot gonads and find it useful and fun. Even after 2 years, I'm still getting to know my first bird - a bhc - and your vids are great. Thank you! xA
Alnwickist x Thank you!! ♥️🌲 Making a gonad video is I would never imagine I would be doing one day! Lol! Tomorrow I am uploading a video that makes this one look tame! People will definitely think twice before buying a parrot as a Christmas present for their kids.
Its good to see people like you caiques are one of my favorites they're beautiful and perfect for people who want to have the responsibility and time investment of owning multiple birds and children at the same time in one bird and you have three. They're bundles of boundless energy and intelligence love them.
Great info! Thank you for this video, so informative and super fun! 🍃🐥💛💚
Awesome video again :) Thanks for explaining! Learned some new things too thanks to it.
Thank you for watching!!❤️
Very good video. Thank you!
Thank you so much for this video! I just brought my 3 year old boy home on the 8th and I'm trying to learn as much as I can about him!
Great video April!!!
outback25i Thank you!!! ♥️😘🐦
Good afternoon 😊 I just watched yours and you are so helpful bout the ciaqui parrots couz I'm thinking of getting one 🕊love them they so funny n so beautiful 🕊god bless you n your lil bird family🙏
I have no bird myself, but I love watching them. They are beautiful, smart, cute, and such clowns. ❤😅😊
Beautiful looking birds.
I’ve been looking for a great explanation on caiques. I’ve been thinking about one in my later future, as a buddy for my conure. I also never knew that touching the beak was considered sexual. This was super fun to watch. The ideas you had for toys was totally genius
So happy you found it helpful! Thank you
Thanks for your video! Ive wanted a caique lately and i haven’t found a video that demonstrated the cons of having one. I consider myself compatible with the high energy personality of the caique, but seeing how hormonal they get got me second thoughts. Maybe in a few years i will be ready for one. Ive got little experience with birds and i dont think i could handle one in my current stage in life. Once again, love your videos, thanks for such good info 😊
Not even 30 seconds in and I’m like “nope, this isn’t a good bird for me.”
💚
Ta.Good. I think you're obsessed, but that means good hints and tips.Thank-you. Even if you prove to be less than totally accurate (which I doubt) I still know you will not be far from the mark, and NEVER be wrong for a profit.
I will follow you and your advice. Thanks.
Thank you!!!! Scott has always wanted a caique. And he had me thinking about taking in an elderly rescue. Weeeeeell after hearing the noise, I now know I might not be able to tolerate that. So, they are like budgies in as far as the noise being constant yammering? I cam take scream sessions. But not constant noise no matter how soft. Everyone's different, ya know? Sigh. I'm soooooo disappointed... but glad now that I know the truth and to think twice before jumping into one. I think I might walk away twitching now from watching their wild shenanigans.
Oh man! I made this video targeting people who've seen cute caique hoppy videos. So many people buy them because of the cute videos and hit with shock! Honestly an elderly caique would have less energy and your home is wonderful. You are an amazing bird family. The screeches are high but every bird is an Individual. My experience having 4 caiques in my lifetime they are definitely energizer bunnies but once again every bird is an Individual.
I love your family was reconsidering rescue. 💚
Angel's., I got through a goffin lol. Little crack babies!!! I'll think long and hard before making this decision. :) Thanks for this info. All I've ever seen are birds that are hoppy and roll around on their backs.
@@RebeccaStout Caiques are hunters and unpredictable. I would be scared of a caique trying to attack Omni or someone in your household. Puffy killed a hummingbird and lizard. They are super fast and smart. I am happy this video was helpful. People need to know the truth.
@@ParrotPlayhouseChannel A hummer? You have got to be kidding me. Lizards are fast too. I think Sunny might be vulnerable. We have to be careful with him around Onni as it is.
Lol caiques are my nightmare bird. I have a very sedate (by comparison) GCC. He's an older rescue that I never would've gotten otherwise. Like you say, they're wild animals that are supposed to be living in huge flocks, flying over a large territory. Thank you so much for illustrating the real side of bird ownership.
Thanks for this video, I have been researching caiques for about a year now. It is often hard to find testimonies of the harder, difficult parts of owning one. I appreciate this, and maybe in the next few months I will take the leap into companionship. Especially since there are two boys I have been interacting with (their names are Merry and Pippin) frequently at this one rehome center nearby and they're likely approaching hormonal age (I think they are about 4 years old, they are brothers). They are darlings, though it is waaay different than interacting with them 24/7.
I might hold back another year or so for a different solitary one, because I don't want to separate them because they grew up together and weren't ever separated. And dunno if I'm ready for the investment of a duo, unless it makes it easier with these particular ones.
Thank you!!!!!!
Thank you ❤️
What o good video, i have 2 boys 3 and 4 years old.. lovley bird high energy :D love them to pieces
Thank you!! Glad you enjoyed it!! It was a wild video to film but I loved it!
I can always tell when my birds want to bit me. It's just that look on their face and in the eyes. I just back off. I totally agree with you. Our feathered friends have bad days too. Love your channel ♥️🕊😊
Mine might be bad but for some reason no matter how hard I try, I can’t help but love them!
I heard bells arn´t the best as they have the little metal part in them that sometimes they grab it and regurgitate on it.
I have 4 Caiques. They are BUSY! They can be noisy. Mine get along but they collude to create mischief. I love your videos.❤️
You're an amazing owner & orator -- i wish I'd found your videos sooner. My black headed caique suffered from an undiagnosed hormonal imbalance that turned my lovely companion into a terrorist who couldn't be out of the cage in the house. I had to walk him and be with him on a 3 foot stick in the front yard for the better part of a year til we had to return him too Omar's exotic birds after 18 months. That was 10 years ago and it pains me greatly to think where he's ended up given how unadoptable he was with his condition
I wish I had been armed with this knowledge
I have a white bellied caique. His name is Buffett. I love him so much!! Caiques are such sweet little clowns.
Wow good job👌👏👏👏👏🐦🐦🐦💋💋💋💋❤❤❤❤
Aww they are so cute!

Btw sorry im late.
GG and JG Hello! I Thank you for watching!! Hope you had a wonderful day!
Parrot Playhouse yea you too! Have a good day!
Wow. Thanks for sacrificing your body to the Poop Squad to make this video possible. It was like you were talking directly to me. Best Video. Very informative and reinforcing about enlarged gonads hormonal behaviour. Thanks for the dietary, activity (foraging), and sleep modification you have used to manage your birds' hormonal behaviour. Someone suggested to me to use camomile tea and lettuce stalk as a calmer. But I haven't tried yet. I didn't know about the sexual thing with the beak. There is not much place left to touch a bird. Lol. I am grateful for this opportunity to learn more. Do you use any special lighting in your bird room?
I have 2 hand raised baby girls, cage mates, ages 4 and 5 months, due this weekend. BH & WB. I am so excited.
Bilquis Wadoodi I am so excited for you your babies are coming home soon! I know you have been waiting for this moment for a long time! I would be careful when it comes to teas. Chamomile is okay to give them sips at night. It's normal for them to be hyper. Plenty of activity and exercise in the day will help them get a good night sleep. I do have special Lighting in the bird room when the sun isn't outside. I am so happy this video was hopeful. Thank you for watching and commenting.
God bless you
i love caique chaos!:)
Me too!!☺️
Thank you very much for a very informative video. The real story behind the crazy bouncing birdies on so many RUclips channels. Very much appreciated and please gib lots of scritches aplenty to the birby dinosaurs.
People need to know the truth to make the right decision for the bird and human. Thank you for watching.
I was suggested to buy a caique as my first bird,the only thing I asked my breeder was for an affectionate bird that wouldn't be too too loud. I ended up with a 3 or 4 months baby caique that I kept feeding with a syringe for a couple of months. Thing is he/she is quite aggressive and pretty loud, even when is calmer doesn't like to be petted or touched too much. I'm trying everything but the fact that prefers to be with my mother doesn't make things any easier...
got the wrong bird for a first bird. If the bird prefers to be with your mother, it means you are doing something wrong. And still really hand feeding with a syringe?, when the bird is already couple months old is not the way to go. Should give her normal food in metal trays inside the cage. They need vegetables and fruits as well every day. And if the bird is aggressive with you, it means you do, or have something done in the past wich the bird did not like. So for you to recover your relationship with your bird. You need to find out WHY the bird prefers to be with your mom, what does your mom with the bird you do not. And you need to establish a positive bond with your bird, that can be done through touch training. Think from a birds perspective, Why should the bird like you, what is in for the bird to be with you. rule number one : never push anything through your bird it does not want. it'll make everything worse in the future. for a first bird a cockatiel would be the best option. Caiques are for people with advanced bird knowledge. touch training : ruclips.net/video/j-atQv2UIds/видео.html its a relative easy thing to do
Hey. I'm planning on getting a Caique near in the future. Any advice? And, how long does Hormonal Season last? (Sorry if this was mentioned in the video). Have a great day!
Something to look forward too huh
Maui most definitely started laughing after trying to bite Bailey, lol
I want a Caique so bad, but the more I read about them, the more scared I get. People have claimed they are the Jerkyll and Hyde of birds.
WOW! :)
😂
do caiques tend to get along with sun conures? im gettinga sun conure early january (my second) and i like to have a buddy for them while im at school, and i love caiques so i was thinking one. :)
hi nice video thanks for sharing , i have a white bellied caique and i want to give him fresh fruits and veggies what do you recommend me to give him ? thanks.
The video is great, Is the bird at the top of your head fightign bc he is teritorial or bc he is on the top of the head so he feels powerful???
A few questions. Is there a personality difference between the black and apricot or make and female? And also would you say these or a green check would be best for a family? We want a fun and interactive parrot but would only get one. I want to be sure they get along with everyone but also can have fun with all of our family members
hi i been watching your videos i love them n i to have a male caquie n he is picking for the first time im so strssed n deppresed for him.i also took him to the vet cause he picked alot one day n it was blood so i worried n wow it was expensive but its worth it they did same as your bird.they put this plastic collar but after a month i took it off i was crying every night seeing him suffer with it i made my own collar from socks it worked great i sent for a couple of collars also great.i put it on before going to work n take it off after i get home at 12:00 am n on my days off i take it off all day.he preens alot he sometimes attacks his foot.vet told me the same he has gonads.i really didnt understand what it means i look it up in the website n they gave me medications for anxiety n ichiing he does have alot off anxieties so your videos help me alot but please explain to me more about the shot is it helpful can tell my vet about the shots i m trying to do the best i can i made collars n bought 2 as well also im waiting for the vest for his chest n under wings please can i email u or facebook message u ? do u have a fbk meggenger? thank u
i am highly interested in getting a caique but ive very little bird experience, ive read up on these birds a lot and watched many of your and other's videos, but as someone with a lot of time and patience, i think it still might be okay to get one. i wonder if their behavior might be slightly different when you only have one bird? ive seen a few videos of people who only had one and they seemed a little more quiet (though of course still noisy overall!) and naturally hormones are gonna be troublesome. these videos are great, im still very much considering caiques and reading up on them. i will absolutely not get a bird until i feel i am ready, and that could certainly be a long time yet!
thank you for these videos. these three little devils must be hard work, along with your other parrots! but im sure they are each a light in your life
angelegg a caique is NOT for a first-time bird owner.
Did you end up getting one? Deciding between a caique or green cheek Conure. Both babies.
If you wouldn’t mind is there anyway I can speak with you about a few things concerning my two tiels. Male and female.
LOOOL Puffy tries to hide on the back of your head after becoming top bird all of a sudden😂. He's like OMG she's gonna kill me for taking her place🙈 what really comforted me in this video is what you said about how their hormonal situation will cause them to just bite without a warning and for us not to take it personal. Sometimes it's so hard, when I get attacked after spending a lovely day with my goffin, who is a bit like a caique. He's had his 3rd hormone implant now, which they have given him every 9 months in the past years. And it really works. It gives of a testosterone blocker very gradually, and after the 3rd implant they said to wait a while to check if the changes in behaviour and hormonal activity have become permanent. He's definitely attacking me less, and his bites have become less deep and maiming. He's 25 now, and has been with me for 23 years. In the last 7 years he became increasingly violent towards me. When he's staying with my friend, who's a parrot mum too, he's extremely well behaved and quiet. 🤦🏻😂🤦🏻😂🐧🤖I love your vids, they give me strength and love. Bless you, angel💜💜💜
Watching this after a hormonal day with a male 7 year old cockatoo. Taking notes!
It can be a hard time of year for birds and their owners.
LOL...this video is so funny..
Parrot Lover This was an exciting video to film. 😂😂😂
I love your honest and informative videos... I have a 3 month black headed female...in your opinion, about when do hormone issues start to pop up...thank you
topaz reyna usually at the age of 3
topaz reyna years*
Thank you...
Yep! Around 3 yrs old is when it starts. I have also found the BHC can overload a bit easier than the WBC. I am so excited that you are equipping yourself with the knowledge to handle undesirable behaviors in the future. ❤️
Parrot Playhouse is it difficult to own a caique?? I'm hoping to get one after my lovebird😋
Never put them that close to your face
Serious Bites when Hormones kick in
Mike
Thank you! This was such an informative video. Ive had my 3 year old sun conure since she fledged. We are having the worst time with her hormones. Shes biting us both at least once a day - breaking skin. She is desperately trying to hump my hand and get my fingers under her wings. When i resist and only offer to scritch her head she screams incessantly. Her aggression towards my husband is the worst. She dive bombs him and really attacks his head. Its crazy to see the two of us trying to defend him against 1 little bird. I try to explain to him that its not personal but i know his feelings are hurt. Im going to try your suggestions about reducing fat/nuts and increasing her sleep. Thanks again.
I saw someone saying on there not a loud bird. I was thinking ummm no we had two fosters years ago that just chatted all day.
My poor little guy swallowed rhinestones from my earring last week and has been very sick! Today he was hospitalized and we are very upset cause he’s never away from us! Pls say a prayer 🙏
This is what I aspire to be :)
Caiques are my very favorite birds, but need a very experienced owner
Have you still got them all
My Ciaque is 10 yrs. & he doesn’t SLEEP ANYMORE!! He’s AWAKE ALL NIGHT!!? WHAT CAN I DO?? He’s Getting MEAN & BITES & He DIDNT Before,.. PLEASE HELP??😢
Three birds showing their human pet 😂
Just kidding. Nice vid 😀👍
well,. I believe its time for my Caique,.. he is almost 3,.. today is the second time he bit me in the 3 years,. I thought it was because we where introducing a Senegal to the household,.. no other birds or animals in the house just Chico the Caique and now after one week Rebel the Senegal who is 6,.. what is worse,. after he bit me I put him in his cage for a couple hours (which normally cures his attitude) and when I went to let him out,.. he became very aggressive again... trying to hunt for my right hand... to bite it!!! ,.. observing him now.. he is puffed up and its like 75* in the house.. So my question is this... HOW LONG WILL THIS LAST???
Suggest me good healthy snacks for my caique 5-6months
Regards your parrots ;D
Magdalena Filipowicz ♥️
Wish I would have watched a video like this before I bought my guy 8 years back and not been so naive, never having had a bird before. Recently gave him up as the noise and hormonal behaviour became too much for me after all those years and being autistic didn't help, but he came from a pet shop I used to work at and we hit it off, but once at home I didn't have the coping strategies for his behaviour. Never loved a pet as much as him though and still miss him every day. I think parrots when not hormonal etc CAN be amazing companions but they really don't make good pets in my opinion.
Oh my goodness!! My poor puffy bird!!😥 I literally just uploaded a video the other day of my Moluccan, Sky, laying her first egg!! She’s 14yrs old and had never laid an egg before, so this was a BIG surprise for us!! We only have one bird, no mate, no nesting materials in her cage, and the only time she’s able to *nest* or “snuggle” in anyway is when she’s with me on the couch or in my bed late at night, etc. (which is where she ended up laying the egg) It’s crazy how bad the hormone levels have been for our beautiful birds this season. Hoping it gets better my way and yours!! Love you guys, Puffy, Baby, & Maui😘
Poor Sky!! 14yrs and then a surprise! Hope she starts feeling better soon. You must be having hot weather like us. This year has been horrible for hormones! I feel so badly our birds!
Parrot Playhouse - I know!!😩 & yes the weather has been very warm here!! It’s just starting to cool down a little bit now. We’ve had a few mornings in the 40’s-50’s but most days it’s still hitting 75-80°🤭 I’m hoping by Christmas it will have cooled down enough to where it actually FEELS like winter😂 But here in good ole GA it normally doesn’t get too cold. We might have a few freezing days (or below) come late January-February but that’s about it. An we only get snow every 3-4 years or so ☹️❄️⛄️ I’m hoping it snows this year though! We haven’t had any in a while an I’d love to bring some snow inside to see how Ms.Sky reacts to it😄 Surprisingly I’ve never let her see snow before, I guess because we get it so rarely, so it’ll be fun to see what she does☺️ I hope mr.Puffy man gets those hormones in check soon👌 love to you all♥️
Good video but i noticed that maui seemed to try biting the one on your left hand when you moved her too close to him when your hands moved with your expressions. Not really his fault. But god video. You are a great parrot mom
April Martinez Thank you! Maui trys to boss Bailey around. Maui and Bailey's cages in real life are completely opposite in the bird room. None of my caiques get along. I filmed everyone together so I could capture what life could be like having caiques. Maui is a sweet bird when he is one on one. I had to keep raising my hand to brush the hair out of my eyes. Filming with caiques can be challenging.:))
I was literally raised with 2 black head caiques, they lived close to 30 year til they passed away.
I can tell you that Maui is having so much fun trying to pick the other one. This is my first video of you that I watch and this brings me such memories... 😔🐦🐦
Still have an Amazon parrot, she must have like 45-50 years, she is way too different/calmer than the caiques, I am blessed to have had the chance to cohabit with such incredibly amazing beings.
"I've got my Cai-eek" I'm gone, bye.
thats how you pronounce caique though
@@sleds6857 its pronounced Cake
Thanks, I don't want a bird any more 😄
they are very aggressive when they eyes turns into red suddenly. they can attack u.
In the midst of a maelstrom 😆
How long do they stay hormonal?
What age do they start getting hormonal ?
I have a series of questions: is it better male or female? also i would like to take a same sex couple, can i keep them together or is it better separated? of course I'm talking about taking them small. Thanks
Watched this after I got my caique ! I did it the wrong way round ffs , seriously though he is a cuddle muffin whilst a baby.
I love your honest and informative videos... I have a 5 years White Bellied Caiguw man ...in your opinion, about when do hormone issues start to pop up...thank you xxx

Parrot Playhouse
What month's do the hormones usually kick in?
Wait you have 3 male caqiues? Ofc they Are fighting 😅 dont you have any female ones?
My jardines is 10 months old and he has recently started smacking his beak on his cage when my sister tries to pic him up and he will bite her till she pics him up then he stops , he has tired to feed me by throwing up on my hands or mouth , me gives me kisses like crazy and tires to get into my mouth but I don’t let him go into my mouth 😆 does he think I’m his girl friend ??? Should I stop cuddling him so much ? Or do you think it’s okay for him to act that way with me
Flying birdy Does your sister give a reaction when your baby parrot start smacking the cage or when he bites her? A reaction of laughing, shrinking or anything? A reaction can be a reward to a parrot and cause them to continue this biting Behavior. He also can become territorial of his cage. What she could do is offer a treat and have him step up on a perch for her when he is in the cage. This way he will not have the opportunity to bite her and she can place him in a neutral spot that he doesn't feel he has to protect. Biting is a learned behavior. When he starts to regurgitate for you put him down and give him something else to distract him. You do not want him to think you are his mate. He will become very territorial of you and attack other people in your home. It's cute when they are babies but when they get older it becomes serious. I have seen many birds given up because they are attacking other family members in the home. Thank you for your awesome question!
Parrot Playhouse she does laugh at him and just ignores the biting or if he gets really aggressive on his cage she pics him up with a towel . I will tell her to use a treat to have him step up next time . Thanks for the advice I will use this next time
Flying birdy Terrific!
Caiques can actually live to be 40 with good care..
I just got a caique and he HATES me but likes my husband. Now I'm afraid of him, he's 4 so is it hormones?
Caiques can pick they people and consider them their mates. This is a totally normal behavior for a 4 yr old sexually matured caique. You need to become the only person in the house that give your caique treats. It's also important your husband doesn't encourage nesting behavior. I have a video that talks about how to pet and not pet your parrot. It would be a good one for your family to watch. Keep me updated.
Given these are tropical birds, can you do your next video in a bathing suit ?
do not matter if they are loud louder is beteer feel like in the jungle or in australia coool hey
Can somoene help me i want to get a qaique and i waited and went to a specialist an he Said dont do it when they get hormonal after around 5 years they Flip and they are not your buddy anymore wat should i do
It usually happens when they turn 3. My caiques with all my knowledge still bite me at times. It's important to become educated on this species. Try fostering a caique from a rescue? Hands on experience is the best!
Parrot Playhouse thank YOU very much but my mom still doesnt want to do it because they said they need 12 hours of sleep and a seperate room that we dont have and because im 13 and have adhd She says when he gets distant i can probibly not take it
They get more difficult at 3 for a while, but if you handle them right they're just as affectionate as they ever were. Not a beginner bird; very wonderful tho.
If you want a quiet caique, just get one
I heard if caiques are young they can get along together and be okay in the future
I raised Puffy and his brother Pierre together. Pierre passed from cancer last year. We miss him very much. They did well until becoming sexually mature. Puffy started attacking
Pierre. I would have to separate them 2 months out of the year. All birds are an individual and need space at times. No way to tell if they will be compatible in the future. You just have to take it day by day with parrots.
Parrot Playhouse when does breeding season start so I can make sure to be prepared for when this happens? Thank you
Cassandra Miranda it is different for many species of parrots. Although this year it seems to last the entire year. It will start for cockatoos in January and many other parrots. Of course Spring it will be full blown. For conures and Amazons August can be hard. It just depends where you live, environment and weather conditions. I always treat my bird like it's your round in the bird room.
Parrot Playhouse Thank you! So you would say a caique is fine on its own it doesn't need another caique as a playmate? Because I have one now and wasn't sure if I should get him a playmate since it seems in other videos and articles I read that they are better at play fighting with each other.
Cassandra Miranda that is a hard question to answer. Every bird is an individual. Its hard to know if they are going to get along and choose each other as friends. If you do decide to get another bird get a cage as well. Plan for just in case if they do not get along. I know Bailey my black-headed caique wishes she was the only bird in the room. She hates sharing me with the other birds.
How in god's name do you manage 3 !!
Poor Puffy his balls 🏀⚽️ are huge I know this is an oldie but it’s a goody 🧡🤍💛💚🖤
Lol when I get my bird this Christmas I was planning on naming my bird Maui its gonna be a parakeet 💓😂
Wow. That is horrible. Thank you for your video. It has made me decide not to get these as my pets..
Sheesh, Id take a hundred hormonal Caiques than 1 hormonal teenager
Bird blue balls
Thank you. I will not entertain acquiring a caique.
WOW, REAL BIRD LIFE AT ITS BEST...NOT. LOL More need this heads up before they get ANY BREED OD BIRD! This is why there is such a huge need for sanctuarys and why there is no space in the sanctuarys there are , because folks do not full understand the commitment they are making AND because people look at these birds n see $$$ n it just breaks my heart.
Angels Haven It breaks my heart as well. That is why I continue to film educational videos. ♥️ I would normally never have these guys so close together but wanted to capture the full impact of these guys on camera for my viewers.
