no!!!! I do not like that name for her. really,ligaya?? gak!!! i'd rather have you call her parrot or birdie!!! waaaah!! I felt so very sad for her with that name!! gak! ugh! I know you went for the meaning of the bird but it doesn't fit her whole being and character. think again! I wished you did not picked that name,really??!! gak!!!!
I’ve been subscribed to your Antscanada channel for about a year now. I had no interest in ants before, and you made me interest in them 😀 then I found this channel and watching your Ligaya growing up. I have no interest in getting myself an African Gray nor ants. But I support you either way. Personally I started keeping spiders! This is a beautiful channel. And I get to know you as a person as well. You are good person and treat your AC/Mabuhay family well informed. Good advices as well. Best of luck to your channels and your beautiful pets👌🏻🐦
I'm a high school freshman, though as much as I want the larger parrots, I'm no ready for that. I'm currently hand feeding a baby cockatiel, and trust me, even the "beginner" birds are very high maintenance. If you're a young child or even a parent, please make sure you dedicate your time to these birds. If you are lazy, I reccomend not getting a pet at all. These animals need your constant attention, because they will rely on you to live and survive. And NEVER IMPULSE BUY. Do your research, if you really want to have a parrot, as Mikey said, start with small parrot. I reccomend adults that were hand fed when they wear babies. I hope the mabuhay squad who will be first time Bird owners will take my advice. Have a great day!
Butter Beaski yeah I've got a cockatiel and he demands constant attention, my budgies not so much but they have each other, peeko on the other hand (my cockatiel) gets really destructive if i'm even paying too much attention to my phone xD he throws fits like a child. it's adorable 😂
Parrots need soooo much constant care and attention and they’re a HUGE commitment and I’m so glad that you make sure to share that with your viewers. I also can’t take on that commitment and that’s why I’m so glad I get to watch this cute baby here 😍
I think that by having your pets named Filipino names is a great thing. I'm not Filipino so I didn't know any names, but I think it's important to "showcase" these names because in the west they aren't common, but then we get to learn new names and words from another country. Plus I voted for Ligaya, there was so many good choices though. And I may one day call my next puppy (I'm a dog collector 🤣) Regna or Tala. Which I think are awesome names. (Corrected) 😁
also, here's some advice on the food mixing: - use a chopstick instead of spoon, evenly mixes the formula with the water - stir circular going outward and back inward, mixes the whole thing nicely. - stir continuously using the chopstick to let the temperature go down, heat escapes quickly Ligaya seems very responsive to the feeding, you can start doing some training like step-up and recall :) Lastly, you're doing so well sharing a message on responsible parrot ownership, keep it up! My guess on the amazon boxes: An aviator harness is one of them perhaps? Can't wait for the next episode!
As a certified hypnotist support and encourage doing positive affirmations. You are worthy and deserving of love, respect and joy, from yourself and others.
Beautiful name for a beautiful African gray! I agree Mikey these birds are highly exotic and require a lot of care, they suffer if they are not constantly cared for and stimulated. They bond so much with their owners like dogs and it's not fair to not plan to keep them for their full lives which is like keeping 4 dogs one after the other! That's a long commitment but that's ok we can all rear Ligaya together right??
Idk about African greys but most birds do no sleep like that, they tuck in their head in their back and sleep pretty much being perched. Idk if this behaviour is normal in African greys or not..
Mikey, try visiting the wildlife rescue center at the Ninoy Aquino Parks and Wildlife to show the effects of abandoned pets there, I had my OJT there and I saw more than 20 african grays that are just there to die eventually because people donate these pets when they can no longer keep them. I would really recommend a visit and a vlog (hopefully) from there.
Love the name. You are very right. Having a parrot is not only a real commitment, they are also messy and the cage requires more cleaning than a cats litter box. They also live a long time and will be a long-term commitment.
1 hour long vid of her in the cage. I love just watching her figure things out! Like perching, that was amazing! Thanks for sharing this amazing experience with us
OMG, YES! She is a Parrot. And she is also lovable like Malaya. Ligaya Hello again to you. I love to watch you growing, improving, stunning brilliant and talkable, intelligent Parrot. Long Live..... Goodnight, God Bless.
Congratulations on finally getting a new name for your bird. She seems to really take to being called Ligaya. Thank you for advising other to think & rethink again about getting a pet just because it's the cool thing to do. People don't realise how much work & time one put in for the life of that pet. Take for example how huge the show Game of Thrones took over the world, & how cute were those wolves the Starks each got. All of a sudden there was a huge demand for Huskies, not realizing that they're not your average trainable dogs. And OMG all that shedding fur everywhere. I love my husky, we are his 3rd and final family. He's not from the pound like a lot of other Huskies have ended up, but we rescued him from our next door neighbor that treated him horribly by his girlfriend, who had her own dog beat up on him almost every day. She didn't care if he got out of their yard. I even heard her tell my husband that she wished the dog wouldn't come back at all when he told her the dog's been waiting for hours in the hot sun in the middle of summer. After 2 weeks at our house, he was comfortable enough to get a few hours of sleep, not constantly on defensive alertness cat naps. His first owner was our neighbor's brother. He soon found out how much work it was to have a puppy, let alone a very smart one who'll listen if he feels like it. He's ours now, we're keeping him. He was super friendly from the beginning. But don't get a pet just because it's so cute. I think those baby pandas are super cute, too, but no way would I want one as a pet. That'd be irresponsible, & they're endangered. 🐺❤🐼
You are so blessed to be able to even consider retiring before the age of 40. We are roughly the same age. Hope I could say that as well. But sadly I'm far from it.. that's why I love watching your vlogs. You inspire me a lot. Only positive vibes and enjoying life :)
also to add the larger parrots live 70+ years. They are a life time commitment. Mickeys video is awesome! Love Marlene, Feel so bad for her about Picasso.
Your vlogs made me realize how much I don't want a big parrot. I mean, they're super awesome! But so high maintenance that... unless you can really afford and have the time to spend with them and studying about them, we shouldn't put those gorgeous animals through pain. Thank you!
Yeah... it definitely seems like adopting a child that will never ever grow up. It will never stop needing daily interaction and attention. It's a labor of love for life.
OMG I love that you like Marley as well she use to live here in the uk !! I have a cockatoo I agree they are expensive for a 12.5 and a toy cost £31.56 but I’d rather have good food and toys and it’s lasts up to 3/4 months watching this make me what to grow my own bird when I move out I would love to own a few birds maybe 3/4
I love Marlene! I love watching her videos as well! I’ve always wanted to have a cockatoo, but when I found out that they produce powder-like stuff when cleaning themselves and could trigger an allergic reaction, I realized that a cockatoo isn’t for me. I agree with you, people should do their research first before getting one, they should be ready because it could be a lifelong commitment. By the way, Ligaya is so cute. I’ve been a fan since day 1! :3
You would be such a wonderful daddy. With how much care you put in to everything. How you have to have her food perfect. You always make my heart melt with how caring you are with her.
Omg, seeing ligaya sleep like that was pure joy! lol i thought birds sleep upright while sitting or perching. thanks for the advice about pet ownership, people need that.
Just found this channel ... but have seen AntCanada for a few months .... I want to thank you for cautioning purchase of a Grey until being personally stable and responsible ... Most of the larger parrots are more than prone to feather plucking if not mentally stimulated most of their waking hours with toys and interaction with others. Also glad to see you feeding fruits and veg's .... never tried the pellets ... I'm proud of you guys !!!! You have one lucky bird !!! Kudos and thank you for your various channels ... Look forward to all videos
You take excellent care of Ligaya! She's just too cute. Thank you for stating your concerns and cautions for those wanting to get a parrot. Also these birds live for a lonnnnnnng time. Many don't take that into consideration as well. Love your content, keep it up!🤗🤗
Many thanks for addressing this. I myself am an avid bird lover and as much as I fancy having a parrot again, my current life style just can't accommodate caring for one (I have an unsociable job, I'm single, and travel a lot). Parrots are amazing, intelligent creatures and it's understandable the temptation of having one. However if the only reason of getting one is cos they look pretty, the novelty quickly disappears once you realise how demanding they can really be. So guys do your research before getting one!
I love Marlene! I have been following her for quite a while now! I'm so happy she got 100k! I have been wanting a bird for a bit now and when I move hopefully I can get a Senegal parrot or something similar. I have done research and even quizzes and they seem like a good match for me. I found your channel because I love birds/parrots!
I fully admit that I’m not prepared in any way to own and care for a parrot, so I’m not planning on getting one any time soon. That said, I WANT ONE SO BAAAAAAAAD... You know what you can advocate for? Volunteering at shelters and supporting pet rescues! You may not be able to adopt, but fostering pets, taking them on walks, etc is such a great thing.
Hahah! I was the same for many yrs. Yes adoption is definitely my goal in the future. I am also willing to take birds in in the future when I have my new space. Thanks for watching!
Very nice name you gave her Mikey,and congrats too the person that picked it! Well said Mikey about thoughts of fans of yours wanting a parrot or other birds, they are alot of work and maintenance,and they need attention,but the reward is greater.
Same with dogs Mickey. I can totally relate with the way you take good care with Ligaya. With any other pets, its a responsibility. And how you treat them says a lot about you
8:25/26 that's the funniest thing I have seen. Didn't expect her to video bomb right there. Her head just pops out into view. Lol she is so sweet esp when she was sleeping. Just like a baby. Peaceful.
I live through you, I like parrots but I couldn't commit to one. So i love seeing Ligaya daily it's like I get all the cute and good bits without any of the cleaning or future noise! 😁
I totally got what you were saying about detouring maybe a impulse buy of the African Gray, my husband I were discussing that a bird like that would be awesome to have but I bet the amount of time that goes into it especially in the beginning you would probably have to take off like 2 months just to bond and take care of this sweet baby and also all the reasons you mentioned. You said it perfect friend 😊
Thank you and your bird for putting happiness in our lives ! Your bird gives so many positive actions to your channel! She’s super cute also! Tour information helps me take care of my birds. Thanks soo much
Pets are always a RESPONSIBILITY.…I have been a dog parent for so many years- my eldest dog died at 14 years- and I have a 14 yr old right now, as well as a 3 yr old dog - although they are quite lazy , having them I still consider a handful. As far as I know, Birds and Turtles live so long… so I think they are very long time of being responsible for another life- YES, ITS ANOTHER LIFE!! Good thing to hear from Mikey the Facts of having these pets.
Great job on Ligaya's new name! :) She's growing so well. I suggest as well that you do start with Step-up command even as early as now. Can't wait to see her all flighted :)
I had an African Grey her name was Miss Emmy. Sadly she passed away. But I know how it is to own large birds. My mom has a Moluccan/ Umbrella Cockatoo she raised from 8 days old. My parents even build a special room in there house for their birds. My family was also a foster family for our local humane society. When they found out we know how to take care of large birds they would ask us to help get them ready to be adopted out. It is not that easy to get them to be adoptable because it is like a taking a human toddler away from there mom it is emotionally scarring, and you get behavioral problems. Two of the Macaws we fostered we could not get to be adoptable because they bound to my mom. The humane society worked with us to help us keep them ether wise they would have had to be put down. I got my African Grey because I was work at Petco. She came in I was the only one to work with her she bound to me, I didn't know at the time. But when I quite working there she freaked out and stared to pull her feathers. They were just going to send her to another store like that would help. So my family helped to get together the money and the employees give my the employee discount. After that I sent in a complaint to corporate about how the stores took care of large birds. And not enough employees with knowledge to advise on how to care for them. I don' t know if it help but a year later Petco could no longer sell birds bigger then a Conare.
😁 a beautiful name for a beautiful bird! Great pick! Funny enough with seeing so much of Ligaya, I have thought about getting a bird again, but I know for a fact my family and I are no way ready for a commitment like that. My kids are still too young for that type of responsibility but I have thought about a cockatiel. Also definitely not that financially stable hahaha. Hard truths need to be told Mikey, tell it like it is 👍🏼👌🏼 PS: loving the old school songs 😉
Very good advice Mikey, indeed a high maintenance pet and require a lot of attention. We have one as well . He’s a cockatoo and now more than 30 years old.
Ligaya as expected😎. Really positive name but I didn't consider coz of some theatrical/commercial implications ( well I guess and I realized, relative🤔). For Kiki, not really "against" but rather apprehensive of naming somebody or something of it🤔😁. Nevertheless, Ligaya is ligaya, joy 😄and she's us Mabuhay Squad!😎😁👌
Nice! Your advice concerning Parrot keeping worked completely the opposite way. I abandoned my wish for kids and will someday get a african grey instead :D
Haha! But the parrots unlike humans never grow up and move out! You would be stuck with a 3 yr old for the rest of your life! Lol! This for some is a joy.
I like Tala for her, but Ligaya is also nice. It reminds me of EraserHeads’ popular music entitled “Ligaya.” She’s just so cute sleeping like that. Haha
I am 100% ok if this vlogging channel becomes a bird/animal/pets channel! 101% ok with that. I love animals more than travel and food, plus reaching that point in life where I am ready to chill out in life and just enjoy.
Everyone recommend cockatiels but there is a bird called a parrotlett. They are tiny parrots that are super smart and can talk and have all of the personality of a big parrot and you can find one that is a baby and raise it from a baby stage. They are amazing. Parrotlet
Getting mixed emotions about the name.😶 I need a minute...ok Ligaya then! But I'll stick with babygurl.😉 Hope you get to write another R&B song again like Pogi or Lie with Me...Kindi miss it.😉
Parrots are alot of hard work and so many end up in rescues because people who thought it would be cool to have a bird got one and realized its not all fun and games. If you want a parrot research alot and consider a rescue bird. These birds are smart and they get damaged and confused when their people abandon them
Yehey I won.....i like Ligaya or Mayumi that's why i am so happy when you choose LIGAYA Goodluck to you baby Ligaya i wish you like your new name Ligaya is becoming famous now a days....she"s really so cute...love it... Good night Mikey and Rj.....see you tomorrow for another vlogg #mabuhaysquad #macau2018sept

Emmanuel OMG #RELATABLE

@parrot family Thanks I just don't want any animals being abandoned
Butter Beaski yeah I've got a cockatiel and he demands constant attention, my budgies not so much but they have each other, peeko on the other hand (my cockatiel) gets really destructive if i'm even paying too much attention to my phone xD he throws fits like a child. it's adorable 😂
Parrots need soooo much constant care and attention and they’re a HUGE commitment and I’m so glad that you make sure to share that with your viewers.
I also can’t take on that commitment and that’s why I’m so glad I get to watch this cute baby here 😍
I think that by having your pets named Filipino names is a great thing. I'm not Filipino so I didn't know any names, but I think it's important to "showcase" these names because in the west they aren't common, but then we get to learn new names and words from another country. Plus I voted for Ligaya, there was so many good choices though. And I may one day call my next puppy (I'm a dog collector 🤣) Regna or Tala. Which I think are awesome names. (Corrected) 😁
Aww thank you! That's great and noted on the name choice!
It's Filipino not philipino :)
@@bonktoryu203 Ah of course, it's also there and not their. In Italian it's Filippina. - just a brain fart. But thanks for the correction. 👍
Ligaya will be the first RnB singing parrot 🐧🐦 (that looks like a penguin) 😁
🤣🤣🤣
also, here's some advice on the food mixing:
- use a chopstick instead of spoon, evenly mixes the formula with the water
- stir circular going outward and back inward, mixes the whole thing nicely.
- stir continuously using the chopstick to let the temperature go down, heat escapes quickly
Ligaya seems very responsive to the feeding, you can start doing some training like step-up and recall :)
Lastly, you're doing so well sharing a message on responsible parrot ownership, keep it up!
My guess on the amazon boxes: An aviator harness is one of them perhaps? Can't wait for the next episode!

maybe even take ligaya there to see her own kind
Oh wow! So sad. I definitely will visit one day and even possibly adopt in the future when I have more space.
OMG you noticed me
I agree, I think showing viewers what impulse buying does to a pet will make them rethink whether they really want one or not
Love the name. You are very right. Having a parrot is not only a real commitment, they are also messy and the cage requires more cleaning than a cats litter box. They also live a long time and will be a long-term commitment.
Ligaya is such a character! Very adorable! We were surprised to see that she sleeps on a pillow!!! 😂😄

Aww that’s so cute I love that name. She’s so talkative. She is progressing so much she doesn’t look like a baby anymore ❤️❤️
Love the name, with or without the translation. Enjoy a lifetime of joy.
You would be such a wonderful daddy. With how much care you put in to everything. How you have to have her food perfect. You always make my heart melt with how caring you are with her.
Yehey Ligaya is now her name.. so happy for her ...
Omg, seeing ligaya sleep like that was pure joy! lol i thought birds sleep upright while sitting or perching. thanks for the advice about pet ownership, people need that.

This is such a cool channel!! Having a (now) bird and ants channel to have some verity is awesome! Keep up the good work!!
I totally got what you were saying about detouring maybe a impulse buy of the African
Gray, my husband I were discussing that a bird like that would be awesome to have but I bet the amount of time that goes into it especially in the beginning you would probably have to take off like 2 months just to bond and take care of this sweet baby and also all the reasons you mentioned. You said it perfect friend 😊
Thank you and your bird for putting happiness in our lives ! Your bird gives so many positive actions to your channel! She’s super cute also! Tour information helps me take care of my birds. Thanks soo much
Pets are always a RESPONSIBILITY.…I have been a dog parent for so many years- my eldest dog died at 14 years- and I have a 14 yr old right now, as well as a 3 yr old dog - although they are quite lazy , having them I still consider a handful. As far as I know, Birds and Turtles live so long… so I think they are very long time of being responsible for another life- YES, ITS ANOTHER LIFE!! Good thing to hear from Mikey the Facts of having these pets.
I never see baby bird sleep on their belly before. Omgggg super cuteeeee
Great job on Ligaya's new name! :) She's growing so well.
I suggest as well that you do start with Step-up command even as early as now.
Can't wait to see her all flighted :)
Stop being so cute. D'awwwwww parrot daddy daughter bonding.
I had an African Grey her name was Miss Emmy. Sadly she passed away. But I know how it is to own large birds. My mom has a Moluccan/ Umbrella Cockatoo she raised from 8 days old.
My parents even build a special room in there house for their birds.
My family was also a foster family for our local humane society. When they found out we know how to take care of large birds they would ask us to help get them ready to be adopted out. It is not that easy to get them to be adoptable because it is like a taking a human toddler away from there mom it is emotionally scarring, and you get behavioral problems. Two of the Macaws we fostered we could not get to be adoptable because they bound to my mom. The humane society worked with us to help us keep them ether wise they would have had to be put down.
I got my African Grey because I was work at Petco. She came in I was the only one to work with her she bound to me, I didn't know at the time. But when I quite working there she freaked out and stared to pull her feathers. They were just going to send her to another store like that would help. So my family helped to get together the money and the employees give my the employee discount.
After that I sent in a complaint to corporate about how the stores took care of large birds. And not enough employees with knowledge to advise on how to care for them. I don' t know if it help but a year later Petco could no longer sell birds bigger then a Conare.
😁 a beautiful name for a beautiful bird! Great pick!
Funny enough with seeing so much of Ligaya, I have thought about getting a bird again, but I know for a fact my family and I are no way ready for a commitment like that. My kids are still too young for that type of responsibility but I have thought about a cockatiel. Also definitely not that financially stable hahaha. Hard truths need to be told Mikey, tell it like it is 👍🏼👌🏼
PS: loving the old school songs 😉
Came from the AC channel.
Hi Ligaya ! Thats my mothers name too ... 😍😚
Hello #MabuhaySquad
Free concert too.. amazing voice mikey! 😍
Very good advice Mikey, indeed a high maintenance pet and require a lot of attention. We have one as well . He’s a cockatoo and now more than 30 years old.
Wicked I'm pleased that name was Chosen as a Fan of your Vlogs I can see the JOY the new baby Brings to you so the Perfect Choice
Ligaya as expected😎. Really positive name but I didn't consider coz of some theatrical/commercial implications ( well I guess and I realized, relative🤔). For Kiki, not really "against" but rather apprehensive of naming somebody or something of it🤔😁. Nevertheless, Ligaya is ligaya, joy 😄and she's us Mabuhay Squad!😎😁👌
😂 takaw takaw ni RJ, nakapuslit pa sha ng isa pang mangosteen, 😂😂😂 Mikey, your voice 😍 ang ganda talaga,
It makes me smile when i saw her sleeping, so cuteeee..
Don’t forget to mention how long they live 60 YEARS PLUS
I think you need to add another 15-20 years to that 60
I really like following you and Ligaya. So sweet to watch her enjoying you singing to her!
Finally! Hello baby #Ligaya! You seem to like your name! Of a truth that name really fits her because she always brings joy to all of us🐦❤💕
Ligaya! I like it!
Nice! Your advice concerning Parrot keeping worked completely the opposite way. I abandoned my wish for kids and will someday get a african grey instead :D
Haha! But the parrots unlike humans never grow up and move out! You would be stuck with a 3 yr old for the rest of your life! Lol! This for some is a joy.
yesss loving the name, your parrot brings joy to your vlogs. 😁
The last time I heard that song was when I bought the Burn CD in 2004. Loved it brotha! Ligaya did too!
Greetings from Brunei Darussalam! Nice to know her name is Ligaya! 😘
Yes! One of my suggestions!
OMG She's sleeping like a baby hahaha😂 baby parrot. Ssooo adorable. Love ❤ u Ligaya. 😊
Come for the information and cute parrot
Stay for the gorgeous singing clips 😩✊💕
My African Gray is obsessed with the songs from the play Alexander Hamilton.
Wow! What a well-cultured parrot!
Hi Ligaya 👋
You're feeling my heart with joy and making my day happy. Hugs to you.
💕💕💕
I like Tala for her, but Ligaya is also nice. It reminds me of EraserHeads’ popular music entitled “Ligaya.”
She’s just so cute sleeping like that. Haha
Wow ang cute mo naman ligaya
Yay! Ligaya WON... I'm so happy. Hope someday i'll be able to meet her Mikey.
Wow nice name, I vote that name too LIGAYA, congrats finally the lbaby parrot have a name,,,Mikey & RJ have a nice day in God bless,,,,

Positive Affirmation
Mahal Kita Palagi
Wow ive seen you've gained 5k subs since Ligaya has come on the vlogs 💕. Congrats!
I am 100% ok if this vlogging channel becomes a bird/animal/pets channel! 101% ok with that. I love animals more than travel and food, plus reaching that point in life where I am ready to chill out in life and just enjoy.
Everyone recommend cockatiels but there is a bird called a parrotlett. They are tiny parrots that are super smart and can talk and have all of the personality of a big parrot and you can find one that is a baby and raise it from a baby stage. They are amazing. Parrotlet
Getting mixed emotions about the name.😶 I need a minute...ok Ligaya then! But I'll stick with babygurl.😉
Hope you get to write another R&B song again like Pogi or Lie with Me...Kindi miss it.😉
Yey! Ligaya! I voted for that!
Parrots are alot of hard work and so many end up in rescues because people who thought it would be cool to have a bird got one and realized its not all fun and games. If you want a parrot research alot and consider a rescue bird. These birds are smart and they get damaged and confused when their people abandon them
The way the world is going u need a little joy sometimes so nice name .
I think a parrot is the best pet for you Mikey coz you talk and sing a lot, she will benefit from what you are doing =)
Hehe thanks!
singing to Ligaya, excellent idea
I voted ligaya too.. awww...
full of happiness we love you ligaya 😍😘
Mikey you're a very responsible dad to Ligaya!
Yes! Ligaya it is.. I love you Ligaya!😘😘😘
Catching up on your vlogs while I workout...
'TODAY, I choose JOY.' 😊❤🐦
