I appreciate the bird " thought bubble" / subtitles it helps me see the body language of the bird in that moment and lets me essentially double check to make sure I'm reading what the bird is saying correctly.
I am glad it's helpful! Thanks for the feedback.
Yeah I really liked that as well👌 Very helpful
Walter was DEFINITELY not happy with Dave blocking the way to his mom 😂😂😂 birds sure find ways to express themselves!
Wear a red shirt, get treated like a Star Trek Red Shirt. IYKYK.
😂 The red shirt thing crossed my mind as well!
😂😂😂😂
Wow! Jamie caught that side eye super early!!! Nice job!
They sure do think much faster than we do. An owner sure needs to be 100% present! So much to learn!
I'm at that stage with my
baby bird. He's outgrown
my skill level already. He
is so QUICK to learn. The
other day he was talking!
I never taught him how to
talk, I'm hearing impaired,
I don't speak at all. 😮🤷♀️
They move fast!
It might help people to phrase it as clicker timing being more important than treat timing - the clicker is the thing indicating the treat is coming, doesn't have to be instant cause it seems people are always rushing to get the treat and it's why they click late!
Great tip!
Jenny's confidence made the difference. She was like an unsure mom with an over attached kid letting Walter drive the dynamic. Thank you for helping another family!
I have a rescue a military,,,he was beaten then rescued by a bird rescue was adopted but has severe behavior ptsd problems,,,I got a call from the adopted mom asking me to take him and I did now as a combat veteran I recognize his ptsd triggers and behavior but he still gets me,,,yesterday big ole arm chomp but ITS OK I did not reward andI understand but I set boundaries for him which is quiet time and quit music till it passes then he gets over it,,,you guys have been invaluable to me with all my rescues with tips and et al and I know my military ptsd starting getting better when I fell into rescuing macaws that were abused and have ptsd.
Great video !!! ...am I the only one doing hand positions with Dave as he speaks...lol...
I tried it too haha. And I don't even have birds yet...😂
The way baby macaws hold their wings like they’re just a puddle of feathers makes me melt ahahaha
Also, thanks to this video, I’ve gotten the last of the tips I needed to get emery to finally start learning to station, he was always sooooo anxious and clingy, but now he’s getting better every single day 🥰🥰 I can almost walk out of the room now and he’s still staying on his perch
Why did she give him a treat after he attacked Dave? That seems to reinforce the attacking behavior, right?
When? Because I'm not seeing her treat?
@@wwaxwork 3:20
They say dave gave a treat to try build some trust with the bird. It would seem to reinforce the bad behaviour, but the bird doesnt know dave, so once the bird is like, oh, this guy is giving me treats, and i already know i get treats when i hear the click. The bird may be thinking, i didnt hear the click so it wasnt training. Was just a treat just because. Aslong as the bird has a positive association with treats, then anyone giving a treat would be seen as positive and not a reason to get defensive. Im no bird expert, but its the best explanation i can come up with that would make sense to me 😂
@@jockin_around8314 at 3:20, you see that the woman gave tje bird a treat, just after the bird flew from perch to Dave (to attack) and then to her.
@@judithvanwesten4228 my apologies I thought you were talking about Dave 😅 its been a long day. The reward is more likely for a successful flight than anything else. The bird flew to her and got a treat for it. In the long run thats more important as the whole attacking situation can be fixed. Plus its still a baby bird, no excuse i know but they do come with their own challenges. Dave was preventing him from getting to his owner which frustrated the lil guy. Going by the training and things from previous videos, the bird never heard a click or got a treat the moment of the attack which wouldnt reinforce that, only the part where he flew to his owner. If however it happened, landed on dave and got a treat from dave, it would of possibly have reinforced the behaviour. It’s definitely a situation where you get more positive behaviours to move past the bad behaviour
Holding the hand steady, as the higher point, and being consistent, stopped the "arm climbing" of the moody macaw I didn't want near my face.
So good guys ❤

Loved seeing this training, and the feedback was very helpful. Looking forward to seeing Walter’s progression. I wish that I had a space for my Cockatoo to get out more. Have you done flight training with Cockatoos?
Walter seems so clumsy with his wings, definitely baby energy!
My indian ringneck jumps from fingers to shoulder
that is so awesome amazing
I really need help with my aggressive pineapple conure. She just bit my hand really hard and im sitting here with blood coming out.please help me. I've been asking through the last couple of videos. I don't know much about body language either.shes had a unknown history.
Hi My bird named Connie loves the food I purchased you!!! She cant stop eating it. How long will it take before stop being hormonal from the other food she was eating? She is a beautiful Sun Conure!
Hi, I need some advice, are there heating products that are not harmful and safe for our parrots? something to put near the cage or wooden house in the evening?
K & H Pet Product snuggle-up bird warmer. Comes in small & large. Mounts on side of cage.
@@carolineluckey1559 is it a safe product? doesn't it release teflon or other toxic agents?
@@Mr.WinterWhy would non-stick coating for baking/cooking be on this? Just says coated metal. I don't have access to materials used. This isn't something that gets to 450° when most toxins are released.
I don't know if it's ceramic coating or what's used. I've seen it on Chewy & Amazon.
It's low heat where birds can sit next to it.
I really like the way you train birds. I am not a bird person. Give me a dog feral cat horse However did you box hit the bird when he attacked you?
Seems like Dave was protecting his face.
I have a theory that Walter doesnt like your hat. Ive had pets who would go crazy aggressive when a person wears a hat (sunglasses too) they become calm as can be when the hats taken off. Im probably wrong. It could also just new person new situation and the baby bird just hasn't been socialized enough.or bird just wants his favorite human and your in the way.
So if I keep my thumb up - my bird nails me everytime - thumb out the way - no problem - will this cause an issue later? I have a Ringneck…Elise
I'm by no means a professional but I think you can try to give the bird a treat high up when their attention isn't on your thumb, then immediately put them back onto a perch (and treat again) before a bite happens. Obviously I'm not there to read your bird's body language, so is it for sure an aggressive bite or does it seem like the bird is struggling for balance and is using your thumb to help? Because there could be many reasons for that. Maybe it's something with your bird's balance, maybe it's your hand being unsteady/moving around.
@@_veronica_r if only it was that easy…he is a vampire bird…
