This really shows how much Rascal is loved. I am so happy that he isn't still sleeping on the ceiling fan! It will be interesting to see how he's doing one year later!
Yes @BirdTricks... Maybe a follow-up?
Yes! What a sweet lady. I applaud all who are willing to seek help but also brave enough to have their mistakes exposed for the whole world to see and potentially judge, even though nobody is perfect.
Fantastic post. What Dave said is very true about out of cage time: I have two IRN and they have 1-2 hours out of cage time in the morning and in the afternoon, during which time they interact with me (training) or goofing around the house, playing w toys or making mischief (IRN is good at that) but Im always there with them. I know their high value treats and that always gets their attention. Getting them back in the cage is usually not a problem cause they have fresh food and water waiting. Ringnecks are challenging but you have to be persistent and firm, earn their trust and they'll make you part of their flock.
Dave - what an incredible perception you have. This lady is too nervous by the situation to perform as needed, but she's absolutely taking in their information. I have no doubt that she's on the path to a better relationship with Rascal.
I would give her one piece of advice: just binge-watch all of BirdTricks! It's impossible not to take these lessons back to your bird.
Exactly what I am doing, binge watching. Monday to Friday. On weekends i need to take breaks. 😂 funny , but it's true. Birdtricks really have a very informative channel here. And I have learned a lot , and I see positive changes on my flock. They now take treats , and can be weighed every single day.
Thank you, Lisa, for being willing to share this with us! How difficult it is to show our weaknesses and struggles to the world. Jamie and Dave you helped another parrot live his best life. Amazing! I learn so much watching all these interactions. I don’t currently have a bird, but I’m learning all I can in hopes of being able to provide a home for a special bird soon! Every parrot rescue should require a certain number of viewing hours of BirdTricks videos! 😊
I totally agree with Jamie never put the target stick should not be above their head or body because of their fear of being pray animals especially in the wild. I definitely need to learn myself how to train my ringneck with birdtricks to target training my ringneck. Great training and learning experience for ringneck parrot owners. Jamie is definitely right about ringnecks understand about are reactive body language.
I'm a retired Zoo educator and keeper who does a little bit of Behavioral Consulting for people that are having issues with their pets of all kinds. I'm a bit of a natural bird Whisperer which when I first started owning Birds was a curse and a blessing. My assumption was that the more out of cage time the better but after some trial and a lot of error and a lot of Consulting with people at work, I figured out that a regular cage routine in the young years meant that once a bird with more mature you can pretty much just leave the door open all the time and they would come and go as they needed. It was really important to establish that that was their home for themselves and it just took me to show them. I think it's easy to forget that with young Critters starting out you are their parent, not their roommate and not their best mate. This kind of bond will change over time, but it's perfectly acceptable and preferable for almost all Critters of any intelligence to establish routines and rules with consistency and patience very early on in your relationship. Keep it very clear and simple and remember the majority of your communication is often body language especially since no pair of living things speak the same language especially in the beginning even if they're the same species at least not exactly. A relationship is a relationship is a relationship all built over time
This is what I'm trying to develop with my bird. It's proving difficult at the moment, but I'll get there.
I am a fairly young adult (23) but I am accidentally dropping things on the floor regularly while training from time to time because of health/stress/nervousness to execute a specific interaction.
If you have someone who can drill a hole in your target stick you can actually tie a hand band to it so it doesn’t make a big interruption if it falls out of your hand, it can be frustrating! have over and over dropped training tools on the floor while trying to execute something important.
Some people glue the clicker to the target stick. Works great!
I actually taped my clicker to my target stick using clear packing tape. No dropped stick or clicker!
I sometimes drop both 😂
So much good advice on paying attention to what you are actually asking your bird to do versus your intention
This lovely lady was, so nervous, and so good.
Great video how one master class can change the birds life. Love to see all the results of Rascal at the end. ❤
The update post you shared showing the progress in only 11 days for them, how awesome!!!
This video gives me all the feels.... I see myself with my baby ringneck making all those mistakes--this felt exactly like what I experienced. I still haven't fixed my behaviors to make a good relationship with my bird in the ways that I want. It's been 8 years with mine and I'm still just learning.
I love your channel so much, it’s the most interesting, educational, fun and entertaining (not to mention the SFS looks delicious)
Also thank you to all the people who let you film them and they’re beautiful birds I’ve learnt so much from all of you thank you
Thank the creator for Bird Tricks. Your education is so needed. ❤
Great explanation of the reasons Rascal isn't responding. Wonderful job ❤
I love seeing IRN vids! Such a flashback seeing such a young bird again... my two are 7 now! I find it hilarious that I almost never struggle to get them back in their cage. They will even let themselves back in to eat or drink, but flutter away if I approach...because they know that if *I* put them away, they get a treat ;) Their travel cage is another matter though, lol. They certainly are smart because they KNOW the day when it really matters for them to get in the travel cage. Rascals indeed!
Rascal's behaviour was very like my Ringneck when he was a baby. He learned not to fear people and took everything in his stride. It was a lifelong process.
When are you gonna restock the seasonal feeding system?
Glad to see this video. I have a IRN that is around 6 to 7 months old. Hes very fearful and will not come near me. I got Romba from a local breeder. I let him come out but then im stuck for hours waiting on him to go to his cage on his own.
Awwww I love all the cute Facebook posts at the end!
Super interesting. You explain things so clear, i really learned from this vid.
I love birdie psychology!
the difficulty in training a bird... is always in getting the human to be able to transmit the ideas to the bird (and read the bird). they're SO intelligent once you manage to explain things to them.
It's sad these bird's are being stolen out of their habitat to be sold. They belong free. Thank goodness they have you to help. ❤
This is an amazing story. I hope I have this kind of success with my 1st bird!! Thanks for all the videos you do.
I kept visualizing using one of my 18" natural sticks for Rascal to step onto. My wildest, most fearful birds accepted "step up" onto a stick with minimal training. There's no reason for them to fear it. It's only after that I offer my finger. I still use a stick in situations where they might not want to go, eg into a travel cage or back to their houses at a non-standard time. They know when I usually leave and go into their houses by themselves, even though they bitch at me for closing them in.
This lady is so lovely, she needs a break 12.34, because I did. But, they did it, and you can see she loves her feather baby very much to even do this. Keep going.
She is very creative in avoiding you xD
Yes. They can be until they have training. They are very clever and learn fast which can be very rewarding.
Having an indian ringneck myself, i love the name Rascal. Thier personality, when they are comfortable, are mischevious ❤
thank you great video. we really learned alot we have indian ringneck in South Africa.
I heard him saying there’s a too much out of cage time…so how much time should they be IN the cage?I have an IRN and he’s only 11 weeks old and I’ve had him two or three weeks
I have experienced so many hormones/mood swings & smart witted wildness with my female IRN . My male over thinks most interactions. They are a challenge to say the least. My somewhat trained wild children lol
Gentle pressure helps calm them.
For me, the big take away from this master class, is that the clicker is saying “good job/treat coming” …giving the human a second or three to wrangle up the treat. Takes some pressure off the multitasking involved with training feathered mules. Lol
He´s is really a nice Ringneck :)
Where do you get the target stick?
How much out of cage time should birds have? My 4 budgies only go in at night, I thought it was good for them to be out all day. So, how much should it be instead?
This had heaps of helpful information, thanks ❤
I love this video, so informative on bird behavior. You might want to steer the camera away from bright windows next time, though, can be blinding!
Wonderful sharing ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
My Indian ringneck does not like hands the only she will get near them is to accept food. But I can use a pointer, my arm, and my shoulder. She likes fingers she likes to bite them if they get too close. She likes ceiling fans too.
Nice, to see the woman who clearly loves the bird, but is a kinda desperate making some progress, she is so happy. And the bird too!
Too bad we didn't have 2 yellowpage phonebooks to prop that pearch up with ... idk maybe you guys can find some old soda crates or wooden wine boxes .. someting you can prop up a table perch like that with when u have a client... work smarter not harder ...
Act and do right, move right is basic😳 nice they got help. A stick over the head 😱omg.
Can someone tell me what the clicker stick thing is for....?
Great work
I was told to let my birds out ALL day everyday. thank you for calming me at letting my budgie out 1-2 hours each day(Only because of my other animals and life)
Rascal 🙈😂
Want to see his progress
Thanks!
You bet!
My bugies aren't entering in the breeding box please tell me how i can make them enter in it please help guys🙏🙏🙏🙏
my one dose it
i love ur vids
I had a yellow ringneck who was a total psycho. She once bit clean through my mom's lip. No warning. Just up and flew to my mom and bit her.
Mine goes into what I call statue mode whenever I approach him he not full adult yet but I had him a week and he just completely avoids me
I need HELP!!!!!!!!!!!
You have an adorable bird
Come to our channel of our budgie, we will be glad to make new friends ;-)
Why don’t we put the training stand at human head level?
The higher up a bird is the more aggressive they are. When they act bad or you want control the lower to the ground the better.
lol this woman is ridiculous I feel bad for the bird,why do you smother the bird when he's on you one and second when you teach your bird how to step up its a step by step process and its the birds choice to step up so once he does so you award him then and praise him. Teach him not to be afraid of you so that he's happy to come to you. She always just make him do things and constantly smother him with her hands. Why do people even have to stroke the whole birds body when petting them knowing that they dont like it or better react to it? I jut dont get why people get certain pets if they dont have a clue how to take care of them. If I own a pet my number one priority is to make them happy and make them feel at home. Then she takes the stick and holds it on top of the bird LOL what the hell? number one thing when you read about parrots is that you should never hold sticks ect above them like a move that a predator would do? everything that she does is off...no wonder she can't get nowhere with her bird. She needs a cat ect. birds have their own ways how they warm up to people. Its their choice, its on their time but its always awarding as they are incredible animals
Watching you train these humans is pretty funny. .... You can tell they love this bird but they really have no clue how to handle an animal like this at all..... And as such the bird is running the house. I've found all your training techniques plus talking and treating a bird as you would a 4 or 5 year old works great. I doubt they give their bird the discipline that it needs
