I love this woman. She's been through so much crap, and so has this bird, and she has this giant cage for him and wants to help him even though he's a cranky cannibal. I wish them lots of luck
“Cranky cannibal” 😂😂🤣💀 In all seriousness, God bless this woman. He’s a very blessed bird to have found an owner like her who doesn’t give up on him despite his issues, and actively desires for him to have the best quality of life possible.
@@leavandenbosch9090 if you are saying wild birds shouldn’t be in a cage, I couldn’t agree more. That bird’s behavior is what his instincts tell him for survival. Since he must be in a cage, that one is huge and well supplied, etc.
@@Serene3574 actually birds prefer a cage for sleeping. They like to snuggle up in their cage among their toys so they feel nice and safe. A lot of birds are actually crevass sleepers. I have one bird that doesn't like to use a cage but she's the oddball the rest of my seven rescues Love their cage and they're always on it and they really don't fly around the house that much even though the cage door is always open. I will also periodically offer them new cages to see if they'd like to trade out they're okay for a new cage and sometimes it works. One time I bought the super huge macaw cage 30x40 in for my Amazon and he refused it. Totally refused it. I think it was too big for him he likes something smaller. So it's not always true the bigger is better for birds. You just have to find the cage they like
Ane is such a lovely human! She’s got such a great attitude and is so vibrant. I about died when I saw the “cage” she bought for him 😂 that thing is the size of my master bedroom. I hope these two have a long and wonderful life together.
Most people or at least the bird community would get cages this large for their birds if we all had massive amounts of money like this woman has. I know I would. My cage is probably half that size but still a small flight cage for my severe macaw.
He knows that the birds can sense fear, same as with any animal really. When the human is fearful, the animal becomes fearful in response and often it leads to defensiveness and aggression. I do think though, Quakers hold grudges and he’s very upset over losing his bond with his owner. It will take time to earn both their trust in one another I think. What a tangled web sometimes us humans weave! 😂
Hahaha, I appreciate it, but I'll be honest... it's not that I'm fearless, I'm just very carefully reading his body language. But I appreciate your compliment! ~Dave
I have been watching all your guys videos, they are so helpful and funny, (especially blue and blue berry) I have two parakeets and I am trying to give the best life they could have.
I get the sense visually he actually wants bonding companionship but trust is huge issue whatever happened in his past. It’s sweet he’s giving baby wings which is good.
“I can only go this far…sucker!” 😆 I love this channel. Great to see you work with these terror birds. All I’ve got is chickens, but it’s still helpful and interesting.
I'm only at the beginning of the video but I've read a few comments. I saw the ones talking about his big cage but hadn't seen it on the video yet... and I thought "hmm, yeah, good that he's got a big cage". Then the cage came on the screen, and wow, that thing is like an aircraft hangar 🤣🤣 it's amazing!
This has to be THEE MOST upbeat and HILAAAAAAARIOUS session you guys have ever done!!!… I am balling in tears laughing!!!… 😅😅 I absolutely love this format you have done as it is less serious and more relaxed on all parties… Great Job Guys. All well health to you all and especially well thoughts to Roman's Lady Owner.
This was hilarious! I think you can already see you guys will be able to help her with him! Hopefully she can learn all the great tips and start building their relationships 😍
The snapshot for this video, combined with the title, did not prepare me for the levity I experienced. I'm glad I watched. My bird is quite alot like this ornery guy.
I hope these two work out their problems. He has a good home with someone thats willing to put in the work snd money to givr him what he needs. They both need training and its good to see theyre both willing. I would love to see these two with a great bonded relationship.
What a great visual! These conversations could be happening with so many bird owners. They may all be different species but some behaviors translate across all. I really like this lady and her personality is exactly what her bird needs, someone who will figure it out and not give up! Just like the cancer and all the trouble that came with (or because of) it. You will have so many steps forward that the steps backwards will still be progress from the starting point. Best of luck! The progress report is anxiously being waited for.
My main concern is: who designed the thumbnail?? But seriously, good summary. Fascinating to see this difficult birdie and the observation and analysis of behaviors and interactions. Extremely educational and helpful. Much respect to Ane for getting Roman out of a bad situation, not abandoning him after her personal health battle, or the tragic loss of the Timneh. Much courage, empathy, commitment, love. Also love Roman's aviary! Like a $1500 Seattle studio apt lol Thanks for your help to us all!❤
I have made an observation, this bird is over the top fearful, it seems almost like he’s defending his life in his mind. my African Grey used to be like this, unfortunately when he was at my father’s (who had cancer, and passed away) he was having really lame wellbeing, he wasn’t having the proper care, and he seen his best buddy escalate in health, he seen some other harsh things in my home, he was in trauma. The first thing it reminded me, is when I just started his rehab process we used a towel too, Chako was being almost identical to Roman in behavior, I was of course scared of him because I knew he could slice a chicken bone in half, he was biting and territorial, and so scared! And of course he would be scared, and so of course he’d make his best effort to get the threat fearful of him. The change happened when I removed the towel. It was like in this video, when I offered the towel for him to step up, he’d go attack it, whenever I tried to loure him with the towel I’d actually accidentally loured him to attack the towel. I’d rather be hands off, than be hands on with a towel, because than you can build mutual trust and eventually introduce more hands on techniques (and I also don’t love being bitten through the towel 60 times per minute). I think targeting and stationing can be the best base tool for this mission. My bird is now being really well, he’s so gentle and not aggressive, he plays with toys and eats the best diet (natural, fresh wholesome and diverse), and he’s receptive to training, he’s receptive to touch (stepping up and petting on the head) and is willing to perch comfortably on my hand if he’s in the mood for it. he’s not an anxious bird anymore and it is really rewarding to observe his progress, really inspiring and insightful. I am certainly sure Roman is on the way to feeling well and in the road to success just like my sweet easy going Chako.
@@kiko7247 I wish them all the luck! the hardest part was letting all the fearful past experience heal, and let myself give in to mutual trust. Talking with my therapist or writing down the past experiences in a journaling notebook also been hecking helpful, it is hard to process this memories- it sounds harsh but it can be quite traumatic, and investing in therapeutic exercises in relation to this experience was a mundane miracle for me (a miracle that required a lot of work). I don’t know if I would’ve made it this far without the inner work because this process held a lot of emotional weight that needed to be healed.
This was a video full of love laughter and learning...Bless you for rescuing him and never giving up on Roman. Jamie and Dave (Bird Tricks) are amazing at transforming birds and there owners. Many Blessings and cheers to good health and update videos on this grumpy birds progress.
God Bless this woman for taking in this bird!! This bird seem always ready for a fight; his pupils never dilated. I have a Timeh & a Congo and would never put them together or leave unsupervised out of their cage. They become territorial of their homes. They have sat beside one another about two feet apart BUT on they’re own perches. I had a good chuckle at the end with the perch on the door. Great video would love to see the progress you make 🐦
You guys are the best!!! You save so many birds from ending up abandoned or rehomed. People dont often realize that no matter how "bad behaved" a bird is you can always work with them! ❤ most of my birds are rescued and some are easier to train and bond with than others but I never give up. BTW, glad you guys got a cockatiel!
Teaching others is one of the highest callings and you and Jamie do such a great job. Keep it up and keep on making videos on teaching others to enjoy their birds
😂 I love this video! I bought a bonded pair of Quakers thinking they were sooo friendly. ,(It was major cage aggression.) We are finally getting to the point where they are landing on me. You definitely have to be 💯 percent present. This was so much fun to watch.
Learning to change behavior you've done with your animals for so long is so hard. Her saying "good boy" for so long and him not having a positive association with that sound for so long was probably a big realization for her. I'm so happy when I see people trying so hard to be better pet parents. ❤
Yep...Everyday is more of a train myself to train better day than to make them better trained. When I do a better job I see progress. Practice Practice Practice lol
I'm definitely not going to leave my grey alone with my conure. He so loving but he gets pretty jealous and I couldn't imagine losing my conure since he is my first and he's extremely affectionate as well.
Is jealousy why he killed the other bird? I'm just curious because I didn't hear them mention why he may have done that. I'm considering adopting one so I need all the info on them.
@NativeRedbone77 I'm not sure either they didn't explain the situation of the bird all that well. My grey gets a little aggressive around girls I've dated he'll fly on their shoulder like he's chill than bite them unexpectedly. But he's never bitten me.
I really relate to Ane....knowing it and trusting that knowledge when it is my finger that will get bit and being able to replicate is two entirely different things. I am glad you both are helping her and that she let this be shared. Building the human confidence is just as meaningful and relevant when the bird may have a history. If the human has confidence then that can be shared to and with the bird. Also the...I can see that YOU know what you're doing....😄😄😄 very relatable. So awesome! ❤️
This was really great! Informative, a little bit of serious and I greatly appreciate I’m not sure how to put it but the good vibes and laughter moments…. Like, seeing how it “clicked” for her at the end LMAO…. Those two are gunna be alright after Dave and Jamie’s help. I’m looking forward to seeing more ☮️🕊💕
I have enjoy this video thoroughly. Everyone involved was hilarious and made me laugh so hard. Not forgetting to mention Jamie's cute giggles behind the camera. 😂
I really liked this smart and kind lady, Roman is lucky to have her. And Roman is such a character! I think they're gonna do great and I'm really looking forward to seeing more from them.
He looks like a tough one but I’m sure you guys will crack him down 💪 and become as lovely as he looks❤️.! I wish you guys the best and make the owner happy .!
I'd like to know if it was cage aggression or what? After 7 years! It's sad. I realize the Timneh is smaller but both are African Gray's. Seems like they should be able to survive in the same cage. Especially after 7 years. What happened?
If she didn't witness the murder is she absolutely sure the other bird didn't die of other causes and he tore up the corpse. Not criticising her she seems a loving owner but if they were fighting she would of split it up before other bird died which would mean she came in found the other bird dead and the other bird eating it and assumed he killed the bird
I really like this lady, the bird is beautiful, just needs , well, he needs alot of training, not birds fault, idk his background, or is this his personality, idk, owner is truly trying to help the grey, so interesting for real😮😮❤
Great video. These teachers are amazing. Birds are harder to care for than one thinks. I would love to have one but it is just too much work for me. I will admire the birds from afar. 🤗
Wonderful that this woman found help. My parrot hates other parrots, I'm afraid he may murder my other parrot - a tiny agapornis- because when he sees him he raises his feather way too much and wants to attack him with hatred.
This video is so great! There are so so many nuances to body language and it's awesome to see you guys work through this session. He's a super lucky bird to have a mom like her, she's too funny. Thanks for all the detail! It's sometimes so hard to not tell them they're good when they do a good thing 😅
What a wonderful woman his owner is, for not lettting him go despite all she has been through, mad respect! We had an African Grey that was extremely agressive with other birds. He horrifically bit a toe from our Galah who had to be taken to the emergency vet to amputate his toe. He couldn’t be anywhere near other birds whatsoever. Is this something that occurs more often with African Greys?
This is nearly exact "issue" I have with my Grey. Our relationship was great the first month or so. We adopted him from poor conditions and took him for a vet check up. He had "stone" build up in his nos and the vet instructed me to inject water in his nose with a siringe...upside down (essentially water board him) to soften the stones for easier extraction. Understandably so, he doesn't trust me and bites the 💩 out of me. And only me. Although I give him all the food and handle him (with a towel) he still doesn't trust me, but will climb on my wife's hand, and anybody else without problem or aggression. He's still fond of me. Follows me, gives me his attention and it doesn't seem to be from fear, but we won't let me stratch his head for too long or climb onto my hand. Perhaps for time and patience to rebuild trust.

It kills me every time when Dave teases the client handing them the clicker in order to teach them a lesson not to tease the bird. 😂😂

I knew that would be a very popular move!
i thought the same thing......i was like wowwww thats a bad ass cage.....its HUGEEE
You're so right! She's amazing!
"Let him fail, so he can think about his decisions in life".....LOL that made me laugh!
😜
That cage..is a work of art. If everyone took care of their pets like this even pre training this world would be so different..
Agreed!
Except he murdered his cagemate😢
Most people or at least the bird community would get cages this large for their birds if we all had massive amounts of money like this woman has. I know I would. My cage is probably half that size but still a small flight cage for my severe macaw.
No one’s going to talk about how dave is so fearless with Roman even though he know’s he can bite.

Ane is a good human ❤ She has a hilarious outlook and a genuine love for her bird
Couldn't agree more!
It’s funny how the bird owners always feel like a parent getting reprimanded for how they r raising their child 😂.
Ane is amazing rescueing this parrot and the dedication and love she has with giving him a better life.
The gentle banner with her was awesome! 😂😂
What a really lovely lady and I do hope this turns out successfully

I love that lady’s kitchen! It’s beautiful.
Deep intake of breath, “ look at that freakin’ kitchen!”
Your ability to read body language so well is crazy. Thats a very intimating bird. I wish youtube was around when i was younger when my uncle had one.
Absolutely delightful to see someone who takes the time to understand their birds.
This was hilarious! I think you can already see you guys will be able to help her with him! Hopefully she can learn all the great tips and start building their relationships 😍

Loved this! Need a follow up. This woman has the best personality. Love that cage, my goodness that is one lucky/loved bird!
Bless this woman and her patience. It's amazing the lengths she's going to for this bird. I wish them all the best
My question is who took care of him when you became sick? He may become aggressive with them and felt untrusting of the person.
Wow he has an amazing cage/aviary!
Really great to see real life people and their parrot issues and how you help them.
God Bless this woman for taking in this bird!! This bird seem always ready for a fight; his pupils never dilated.

Good video to show how to deal with a aggressive bird and very good tip and technique
This has been the funniest vid I’ve seen on the channel. Now, on to look for the part 2.
Excellent job at pointing out shes pulling that treat back. This is definitely a major part of their issue IMO.
She built him a gorgeous aviary..

So awesome! ❤️
Why did he kill the Timneh? Cage aggression? I used to have an Amazon as a kid and she broke my love bird’s leg after he landed on her age one time.
Have you watched marlene mc'cohen. She has alot birds. One of her Grey's tried to attack one of the younger birds.
I never knew Greys could be this aggressive I was always under the impression they were aloof birds.
Ane is so funny, I just can't 🤣
What a lovely kitchen!
Great video. Excited to see more.
These people are the bird whisperers 😮😊 love the content
Gosh I just love your videos!!!! Thank you so much for all you do!!!!! 💜
Great video - Would love to see more of Roman and Ane!
Loved this, love when people are willing to learn and take things on board, she is doing amazing.
Sometimes you dont know what you dont know and having a pro show the light rocks your mind. Great video!
So this bird pretty much wakes up every day angry and chooses violence
I Don't even have a bird and this was an excellent watch😂❤
Her setup is amazing ❤ goals for sure for my birds!!!
Love her and Roman! She's so funny! Great to have on the channel
This is fascinating to watch
I always love it when you show people how to really enjoy their birds
This was really great! Informative, a little bit of serious and I greatly appreciate I’m not sure how to put it but the good vibes and laughter moments…. Like, seeing how it “clicked” for her at the end LMAO…. Those two are gunna be alright after Dave and Jamie’s help. I’m looking forward to seeing more ☮️🕊💕
I cannot wait to see more of this one. He’s a very “different” bird, I’m super intrigued..and Ms Ane is a trip!
Great video! Bird Tricks, you are amazing. I just hope the Bird’s Mom will remember to use everything she’s been taught.❤️
I love her!! Such a resilient woman and the PERFECT person to handle this bird that needs some extra help.
Nice job guys.... tough bird to work with
My African Grey puts his head down when he wants his head scratched. I never knew low head was an aggressive thing.
Maybe low head has multiple meanings. Certainly birds bow their heads for scratches. Interesting.
Just totally incredible work, you guys.
I have enjoy this video thoroughly. Everyone involved was hilarious and made me laugh so hard. Not forgetting to mention Jamie's cute giggles behind the camera. 😂
i hope she stays as fit as she seems. she seems so lovely. hope they are both thriving
I really liked this smart and kind lady, Roman is lucky to have her. And Roman is such a character! I think they're gonna do great and I'm really looking forward to seeing more from them.
He looks like a tough one but I’m sure you guys will crack him down 💪 and become as lovely as he looks❤️.!
I wish you guys the best and make the owner happy .!
Oh I am so keen to see how these two develop.
He senses her hesitation and nervousness so he realises he’s in charge which may have been most of his life hence the pet shop he was in.
So you didn’t get into why he killed his roommate (after 7 years???). Is it never okay to keep two birds in the same cage? Size matter?
I'd like to know if it was cage aggression or what? After 7 years! It's sad. I realize the Timneh is smaller but both are African Gray's. Seems like they should be able to survive in the same cage. Especially after 7 years. What happened?
If she didn't witness the murder is she absolutely sure the other bird didn't die of other causes and he tore up the corpse. Not criticising her she seems a loving owner but if they were fighting she would of split it up before other bird died which would mean she came in found the other bird dead and the other bird eating it and assumed he killed the bird
That was both funny and terrifying (to this birdless viewer) Now I'm thinking about MY life decisions!
Amazing post...
Fascinating!
I really like this lady, the bird is beautiful, just needs , well, he needs alot of training, not birds fault, idk his background, or is this his personality, idk, owner is truly trying to help the grey, so interesting for real😮😮❤
He's like "My Cousin was a Raptor"
Great video. These teachers are amazing. Birds are harder to care for than one thinks. I would love to have one but it is just too much work for me. I will admire the birds from afar. 🤗
He does better high than low. To me low is a defense. High is opening up. ❤
Wonderful that this woman found help.
My parrot hates other parrots, I'm afraid he may murder my other parrot - a tiny agapornis- because when he sees him he raises his feather way too much and wants to attack him with hatred.
This video is so great! There are so so many nuances to body language and it's awesome to see you guys work through this session. He's a super lucky bird to have a mom like her, she's too funny. Thanks for all the detail! It's sometimes so hard to not tell them they're good when they do a good thing 😅
My Grey has become very aggressive towards me too despite the fact that I raised her from 12 days old, I’m heartbroken by this turn of events.
That cage is amazing
OMG his enclosure!
People really want to say they rescued their pet, you bought him, get over it 😂
I cant wait to see follow-up videos!!
What a wonderful woman his owner is, for not lettting him go despite all she has been through, mad respect!
We had an African Grey that was extremely agressive with other birds. He horrifically bit a toe from our Galah who had to be taken to the emergency vet to amputate his toe. He couldn’t be anywhere near other birds whatsoever. Is this something that occurs more often with African Greys?
This is nearly exact "issue" I have with my Grey. Our relationship was great the first month or so. We adopted him from poor conditions and took him for a vet check up. He had "stone" build up in his nos and the vet instructed me to inject water in his nose with a siringe...upside down (essentially water board him) to soften the stones for easier extraction.
Understandably so, he doesn't trust me and bites the 💩 out of me. And only me. Although I give him all the food and handle him (with a towel) he still doesn't trust me, but will climb on my wife's hand, and anybody else without problem or aggression.
He's still fond of me. Follows me, gives me his attention and it doesn't seem to be from fear, but we won't let me stratch his head for too long or climb onto my hand.
Perhaps for time and patience to rebuild trust.
Ane is just awesome !!! ^.^
I admire her - I could NOT handle this killer
Same😭
Amazing to see this is a case that you guys are training THE OWNER and minimally the bird LOL
Wonderful
What constitutes "I'm gonna kill you" vs "I will take a treat and leave your finger" is so subtle.
