Great respect for Rocket's mom. She was so calm and Roxket was so clever.
The lady with the cockatoo has done a great job training her little friend, but the additional ideas from BirdTricks sounded really helpful. Thanks for the upload.
I have a healthy level of respect for cockatoos. I would love to see more of them free flying- especially because I rarely ever see umbrellas or moluccans flying.
They definitely require a special kind of person, and I have recognized that I am not one of those people.
Although I’d take a red tailed black cockatoo any day!
Grace T, I have two red tailed black cockatoos. They are the labradors of the cockatoo world. I have looked for over a year now and cannot find ANYONE to help me free flight train them. Its infuriating.
@@bashikumar4745 I envy you! I’ve looked everywhere in the US and no one breeds them!
@@GraceT They are pretty rare here in Australia too and they are a protected species. They are such magnificent creatures. The one thing I noticed which is really different to the other parrots we've cared for is that I am 'in conversation' with them all the time. They dont use their body language as much as they use a bunch of 'croaks' and peeps and soft chirps to respond when I ask them something or show them something. I know from the croaks or peeps whether they are happy, scared, frustrated, hungry or just wanting a cuddle. They also willingly build relationships with everyone in the family. It seems to be really important to them that everyone likes them.
In Australia cocktail is all over the street, calls so loud, very smart, they’ll come to your balcony every day if you feed them
I love her and her bird so much so wholesome :)
I walked into a pet store about 10years ago and the owner walked up to me, put an Umbrella cock in my arms who proceeded to fall asleep as I pet her. Bird loved strangers. Ive met dozens of cockatoos over the years: the moluccan being my fave for temperament. They've all been very social with unique personalities, unlike macaws and greys that can be tough to tell apart. Cockatoos can be mischievous...like children, but at least they have personality. They acclimate to urban environments very well. Survival trait. They arent a rain Forrest bird any more. Birdtricks obviously prefers birds that are easy and formulaic to train. All my friends with cockatoos vehemently disagree with her assessment of them.
I would love more Cocktoo content. This was so helpful.
Omgosh Jamie we felt the same way about toos until our Gracie!!! She is the most absolutely beautiful and calm cockatoo we have ever seen and soooooooo loving!
However she is jealous/ aggressive towards any other bird that shares our attention!
He's so cute.
Looks like Everyone will benefit from working with Rocket.. Especially Rocket 💞
Oh my god I'm so glad you said about training after a meal. My cockatiel is definitely that bird!
This lady has done incredible work with Rocket. Love the patience and compassion. You guys are great!
He’s tiny compared to my greater sulphur crested cockatoo, so beautiful
Rocket is so adorable 🤗🦜 And SO many amazing tips in a single video, I love that about you guys! ⭐️
I've had my sulphur crested cockatoo for 21 years. Ever since he was 8 weeks old. He has been a great pet. He screams out a few times a day, has never been a plucker, and has only bitten me 3 times in the past 21 years. The latter started when I thought it was cute when he would grab hold of his treat bag and start to rip it to shreds. Out of the blue he tried to start ripping my hand to shreds. Needless to say I stopped letting him get a hold of his treat bag and rip it to shreds.
I love your channel! It has inspired me to do so much more for and with my cockatiel! Thank you so much for making this channel it always makes my day when you upload!
Omg! I've never seen such a tiny scc! He's adorable!
Such a sweet bird! Good job!
What a great video I absolutely loved this!
Rocket has a great Mom.
Thank you BirdTricks now I know how to take care of Cockatoo bird 😊
Thank you!!!! I've been wanting Cockatoo help / ideas. I have a Goffin's Cockatoo that is such a wonderful family member. He brightens my life every day.
Coffins are adorable little ‘toos with a HUGE personality and a fantastic sense of humour 😂
@@asseyez-vous6492 yes they are! very silly too!
Amazing 🤩
Great lessen👍🏼😃
Good job on the intro Capri! Very informative video.
Oooh, he gave Jamieleigh the lesser sulphur death stare. XD
Omg love it 🥰
Finally!! Would absolutely love to do a class with you guys and my U2. Maybe someday ❤. I would volunteer just to help Jamie with her fear of Umbrella Too's 😆 🤣 😂!!
At least this Too will do training 🥰. Nothing I've tried so far has worked. He just doesn't care lol!
JamieLeigh, you and Dave are so kind. I love this so much about you both! :)))
Awesome cockatoo and such a sensitive thoughtful owner!! It’s very possible she has actually trained the lack of enthusiasm her bird was showing with the cup trick. If you repeat unenthusiastic training even a few times with negative energy (trainer frustration and bird frustration) - well, practice makes perfect with both performance (quitting) and emotional state (discouraged, frustrated, averse to training).
I would put away the cup trick for now and only train extremely short sessions with very easy kindergarten behaviors and great enthusiasm. Put him back in his cage when he’s done just 3 great reps of one trick. After a break, out again for a quick HOT training! Build back his great excitement for training.
When you start back with any challenging behavior like the cup trick do your homework FIRST! On paper, break it down into tiny steps. If you break it down into steps he can easily achieve with almost no errors it’s a huge boost for his emotional value for training.
Bird errors ALWAYS mean, “Oh shoot, I screwed up. I need to rethink my training steps. Let me immediately ask for a behavior he knows well, jackpot, and have a Yay You Did Great! party. This bird showed so many indications of how confused it was. Confusion kills training joy. But it can be reversed! By a wonderful trainer like this owner.
I really need to enroll in one of your courses. I have an almost 20yr old Moluccan who, up until recently, has always been clipped. The big goof has molted nine of his cut feathers and he's taken off a few times only to crash-land. My two little ones are solid, but Mango, and I, need help getting him up to snuff.
Rocket is gorgeous!
Yessss early for once!
Aww is that a baby galah?
@@futurefreefliers5861 on my pfp?
@@oxzaniexo yep
@@futurefreefliers5861 not sure looks like it (its not my pic i got it from Pinterest but i have a baby grey that looks almost like that lol
@@oxzaniexo oh ok. Still very cute pic tho!
i really like it
Hiiiiii bird tricks Ur the best
Awesome awesome awesome awesome
Nice video
Clever bird
Can you guys make a video about a Call cockatiel? Like, how to tame it or how to feed it
NICE VIDEO!!!!!
Another great video I learnt a lot watching, thanks :)
That species specific frustration thing, are lorikeets the same as cockies on that? I think I might be getting that same thing in my lorikeets.
Different topic, can anyone tell me what to do when a bird doesn't get off eggs after a month? Eggs were due to hatch 24th December if hatching, they haven't, she's still sitting on them. One has now broken & she's STILL sitting on it. She gets off to get food, but then returns & tucks them both under her, turning the broken one over so it's broken part goes into the nesting materials & the part in contact with her body looks/feels like a whole egg. I'm just not seeing ANY signs of her losing interest, what do I do if she doesn't? She's looking skinny & in really poor condition after a month of sitting on them & talking to them all night every night (boy bird's getting grumpy too from the lack of sleep due to her talking to her eggs all night)
I've read all the stuff about leaving the eggs with them till they lose interest, but I've never seen anything about a bird not losing interest & what to do then. Would really appreciate some advice from ANYONE with ideas or experience on this!
Could you maybe do a video about taming a fully flighted budgie? Or teaching a budgie to talk?
Check out my series with Sugar the Flighted Budgie. I also have a huge part in my Budgie course dedicated to this 😀 available on my website. Birdtricks.com
Cool!
Im the first one! No cap
He's so cute he looks super young! The new place must make birds loose concentration. I don't know if this is correct but I think cockatoos worry a lot like Blizz. That will make them get escalated like me LOL LOL. I worry a lot need to take antidepressants for anxiety. I can't concentrate, etc. But I'm just wondering if cockatoos worry a lot. Little Rocket is so cute seems calm much more calm than Blizz was. Im suggesting medicine for birds no way, but noticed that maybe they worry. Training would be the best and a lot of love.
Echt zo leuk ik heb,vandaag een ducorps kaketoe gekocht,zij is in augustus geboren,maar zij maakt een gek knorrend geluid en ik kan er niks over vinden op internet,weten jullie wat dit betekend??
Can we train the same tricks on Amazona ?
👍👍👍👍👍👍😊😍

Like cockatoos
So small I like the Idea of a smaller white cockatoos, seems like an African Grey size.
There are two main types of sulphur crested cockatoos.
The small one is called _cacatua galerita eleonora_ and the big one's name is simply Triton cockatoo.
I prefer the small white chickens too by the way! It's easier to find a cage that can fit in your house without it being too small for the bird. I won't get any kind of cockatoo though. I highly prefer caiques and budgies ☺️
@@futurefreefliers5861 the smallest ones are _cacatua galerita sulphurea_ and the biggest are _cacatua galerita galerita_ .
@@oaknuts no...
@@futurefreefliers5861 I actually did mean eleonora as the smallest, but as an Aussie, I can definitely tell you that C.g.g. are absolutely bigger than C.g.t. Not to mention, eleonora and triton are nowhere close to being the “two main types”.
I have a question. My African Grey Lulu always looks down as if she was asking for head scratches, but when my hand gets near she lunges for it. if anyone that knows how to get her to stop doing this can tell me, please do.
Does this apply to cockatiels as well?
I would say so but remember tiels are a lot smaller! I have two I can account for this!!
@@jennabeverley4013 Same! Despite there size they can be just as emotional and tempermental as the big ones! I adopted two from a cousin who no longer wanted them and he had some bad ways of dealing with them that I am correcting. I have switched them to the seasonal feeding system along with Jamies birdseed mix, and veg pellets (they immediatly molted once they were switched since the food is so much better now) but its still a long road. One of them is very territorial towards the other and me (when i try to interact with him the other attacks) its been a challenge! I seperated them into there own cages and that has helped a lot (my cousin had them in one big cage together where the more dominant one could bully the other.)
@@saspurillie they can. Trust me. I also have a male and a female and but can the male get territorial sometimes and VERY hormonal. They are both the sweetest things but they are so much work! I definitely sometimes see the cockatoo traits in them! My two are 4! Maybe you do too
hey recently my bird has been acting more aggressive especially around any treats i offer him. he tends to attack my hand before im able to put the treat in. I think he's going through bird puberty since he is young but idk. I have recently started putting him in a sleeping cage and offered him treats so he feels comfortable but i still get attacked. Sometimes he downs a low scared squawk what am i meant to do then. Any advice on how to limit his aggression or any pointers on what to do when he is acting aggressive
Dont give him treats if he attacks your hand, only reward good behavior. Dont just give treats randomly inside the cage?
What type of treat are you using ?
I'm early I guess yey
I'll have to watch later. My Too is upset . We don't have these toys and I think he assumes he's expected to perform the same routines.
He's older and no...were not doing this.
Umbrella cockatoo but not a plucker that i had scream
Is cockatoo a good pet? And should I get one?
Think twice and then think three more times.
@@wessew6185 then four more times then five more times...........
As a former lesser sulphur crest owner - short answer: no.
Imagine having a flying border collie whose main mode of showing frustration is attack diving at your face.
I am confused. Why is there a big dot in the cup? Does that not remove the point of the trick? The bird should be looking for the nut not the dot?
The dot is there so the bird can tell which cup to look under. And slowly you make the dot so small that humans won't notice it but birds who have such better sight still will. Then they can impress with finding the right cup every time. :)
@@cindilund9158 but... that is cheating. And ruins the trick. The bird is not stupid and should be perfectly able to find the nut
Don't think Micaela wanted anything to do with Kody.
Tip 16: don’t get one!
😂
