Aww that's so sweet 🥰 Yes, Kakarikis are very different from most parrots. Kakarikis are very active little birds who love to fly and run around fast. My little birds do all that, but sometimes they take a break and just want to hang out with me for a little bit 😁🌸
Picasso is lovely 🥰 Oscar holds his foot up randomly in the same way that Picasso does 😅 his nails look great and really nicely trimmed. Do you have a routine/technique for nail trimming? That would be great to see- I feel its the area I most struggle with with my kakarikis!
Haha that's so sweet! I have only seen males do it and I think it's a litte mating gesture or something haha. But it looks so adorable when they lift up their little feet like that. 🥰 Oh, nail trimming is so scary! Once there was a great local pet shop where the owner would cut my birds claws for me. (Sadly the shop closed). But thankfully I don't have to do it very often since my birds mostly naturally wear down their claws by running around all day long. But once in every while I have to trim them and I always try to look at the claw with a bright lamp behind it so I 100% can see the blood vein inside (and avoid cutting close to it at all costs). But yes it is very tricky no matter how many times I've done it. And to make it worse one of my eyes needs surgery haha. But I rather prefer to cut less. As long as the lenght of the claw dosn't bother the bird from walking correctly (or snapping) I think it's acceptable. But if you have any petshops nearby it's always worth asking if bird nail trimming is a service they are willing to offer. 🤗🌸
@@CheekyKakariki Sorry for the late reply to this too- but thank you for the nail cutting info! There used to be a pet shop near us that cut Oscar's nails once, but it isn't there any more sadly. I have cut Oscar's nails once before using a bright lamp behind, but it honestly took me (with the help of my boyfriend and co-parakeet owner/co-parakeet servant as we call each other sometimes haha) about 40 minutes to do both of his feet. He was so wriggly and I was terrified that he'd wriggle mid-snip and that the quick/nail vessel would get caught. My mum's fiancee's brother and sister-in-law are vets and they have helped us do their nails once before - they gave us a good tip- to keep some cornflour and a wet cotton wool bud nearby. that way, they said if the quick does get caught, you can quickly get some cornflour onto their nail and it will clog the bleeding. Still, I'm really nervous to cut their nails.. Ernie has all black nails bar one clear nail which terrifies me. and Flora's really need doing (she can walk no problem, but they are much too long). I'm just ultra anxious about it. I need to just bolden up and do it I think😬
@@sleepybubbi9638 Hi there! No worries about slow replies. 😁 I've been absent for a while now too and it's a bit difficult to keep track of all the messages I get. (Sorry in advance if I can't find some of your messages). Its great you have some loved ones that can occasionally help with the claw trimming! 🤗 I don't remember if I mentioned this before, but to reduce all the wiggling (and maybe attempts at biting) I put a little thin fabric pouch over their head. But I never leave it on for long since I don't like the look of it, and I want to be sure they don't suffocate or something. But that little fabric pouch is a great help since I always trim their nails solo. Maybe it would be a great help for you to try something similar 🌻
@@CheekyKakariki Hope all has been ok with you 🤗 It is a bit difficult to keep track- I don't think the RUclips notifications button makes it too easy to follow them either 😅 Thank you for the tip with the little head pouch- that is a good idea! I might give that a go. You must be a pro at doing it to trim their nails solo 😁
@@sleepybubbi9638 Hi! I've been a bit sick (not covid) and busy with all the Christmas stuff. But overall me and my birds are doing fine thank you 😄 I hope you & your birds are fine as well. 🤗 Haha yeah, It's definitely difficult to keep track on youtube sometimes! (Glad I'm not alone with this struggle! 😆) I'm also glad I can give you some ideas. Well I'm definitely not a pro bird claw trimmer 😄 but I got inspired from watching people who work with wildlife. And when they put foot tags on predatory birds like owls and hawks for example they always cover the birds head so the bird and themselves won't get hurt in the process.overall I think it works pretty well (it makes the process easier for sure) but as I said. I'm very careful and check on my birds so they don't suffocate. The fabric can't be too dense and heavy and not too tight or too loose.
Hi there! Aww that's lovely! 💕 Kakarikis are a bit different from most birds (they are very active and needs plenty of space to run around and fly around everyday). They don't sit still much and are not as cuddly as most other pet birds.) But I have heard from some other bird owners that their cockatiel and kakariki get along quite well. However it is wise to be prepared and have a decently sized spare cage so you can keep them separate in case they don't get along. 🌻 I once had a budgie who killed one of my kakarikis 😢 so be very careful.
Hi friend i really need your help.. please reply me .. i raised a three month old kakariki but unfortunately it died on February 1 this year i feel immensely painful while writing this to you i would like to know how to take care of a kakriki right from the beginning. My Kakariki fell sick she was sleeping lot and she had dull eyes.. in my place there is no vet nearby so i couldn't take her to vet i tried my best to give her warmth and i gave her apple cider vinegar in water but she died early morning in her cage i felt so bad and depressed when i saw her lying without soul inside the cage i am planning to get another kakariki please help me out in taking care of kakariki bird please i really request you 🙌😢😞🤕😭
Oh no, I am so sorry to hear you lost your little Kakariki 💔 From what you are telling me I notice how sad you are and how much you tried your best to keep it alive. I too have lost some wonderful little kakarikis in the past and I cried for months. I still cry when I think about them so I really understand the heartbreaking pain you feel. Truth is that kakarikis are very fragile little birds, and sometimes bad things happens to them that you can't help or save them from. Kakarikis sometimes can have heart and liver failure. Brain tumors (resulting into seizures/paralysis). Injuries resulting into blood loss or infection. Other things they can die from is intoxication (toxic food, toxic air, toxic metals etc). I'd highly recommend you to read about how to keep a parrot safe at home. Since there are many things in our homes that can kill them. But right now I think the best thing you can do, is to take time to heal yourself from this traumatic experience. And remember you tried everything you could to save your bird. Whatever illness your bird suffered from, your kakariki is no longer in pain. May your little kakariki rest in peace 🌷🐥
@@CheekyKakariki thank you lot my friend your reply made me feel less painful and less disheartened and it really give me recovery vibes am so glad you could help me process this pain i wished my Kakariki would live with me longer like 10 years but she passed away at a very younger age .. i think i need time to process this but I'll feel better sooner untill then I'll always watch your kakariki videos t really helps me feel happy and makes me want to forget my worries in life
@@vishnupriya.2729 You are very welcome dear.🌸 Life is just so cruel and unfair sometimes. But I'm sure your little bird knew you tried your best to help her. (Most animals knows when you love them). I once had a little kakariki who died on my chest right on top of my heart. I will never forget that moment. The ones we love will never be forgotten. They will be with us in our hearts always. 💓🌷 I'm glad my little videos can help you feel a little better (even if its for a short moment). 🌻 If you'd like some more support or ask some detailed questions about kakarikis I can recommend you to join some kakariki facebook groups. Most people in those groups are very skilled kakariki breeders.
@@CheekyKakariki yes please i am in facebook too it would really help me as i am very new to owning a kakariki bird because it's not originally belong to my country India so yes this Facebook groups will definitely help me
He seems like the most sweet & chill bird. He's a cutie.
Oh yes, he absolutely is. And not to mention he's very funny too 😁
I wish my bird is like him because i have the same one so the yellow one
Never actually seen an yellow kakariki so cute 😂❤ mine is green and blue 😊
I'm smiling from ear to ear here, what a cutie! 😍
God I love these birds! They're the coolest.
Just showed that video to my Kakariki and he was chirping back.
Awww, thanks for sharing. It warms my heart 💕
Its so cute.
My pet bird also does that when we adore her :D
Aww, Kakarikis are such little sweethearts sometimes 🥰
I have 2 and I love yours already! Mines don’t like staying still lol

Good Luck
Чик-чирик-ку-ку!
What does the calling means?
LOVE Y'ALL CAN Y'ALL WHISTLE FOR ME?
