It's interesting how when ecuador started to focus on what you were asking him to do, he stopped screaming. I thought at first that he would scream through the whole training session, and start to think he was being rewarded for being loud.

Every action has an opposite reaction. So while she's "training" the birds (but can't even train her own kids and has the audacity to think she can observe other species especially superior ones like birds), the birds are also training her and are even more succesful at it.

This video motivated me to teach my birds all sorts of ridiculous stuff 😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣

Thank you for the "Loud, random bird noises incoming" warning. haha

Like Jessi said, sometimes it takes longer... but parrots are SMART; generally, said to be equivalent to a 2~5 year old child. so, as long as you are clear and consistent with your training, they'll catch on very quickly, or give you a good sign that they just aren't interested right now. (and i do mean "right now"; parrots need lots of mental stimulation to stay happy, and things like a good training session can fill that niche very nicely.)

Awesome!! You're going to have so much fun!

I'm training my first bird (cockatiel) and I'm so happy that I watched this video and remembered it when I became lost in my training today. She so far knows "step up", "step down", and I'm trying to teach her that if she flies on me when I say "come here" she only gets a reward if she lands on my hand/arm instead of my face or head. Going to be working on target training and "wave" tomorrow along with the tricks she knows. 😁 Thank you, Jessie!

The training you did here is great! Ecuador got it very easily. I´ve been working with our dog Max since we adopted him. He used to get angry with other dogs in the street even ones that were on the other side of the street (he was a rescue) but with time, patience and alot of cookies and praise I can put him in focus mode where instead of looking at other dogs and getting mad he looks at me and stays happy instead. He´s also made a dog friend which I am very happy about. He´s come such a long way from the skinny scared street puppy he was. Now he´s a big happy ball of fluff who listens and trust me. Im so happy that he does. 🐶🐶🐶

I was finding myself correcting you as I was watching haha it was interesting how you pointed out what you did wrong too! Shows that you're aware of yourself which is surprisingly difficult when training. Really interesting stuff though Jessie, bet you found it helpful to watch yourself back too so you can perfect your technique x

A thing you can do to help a cat with crate trauma is to get a crate (side loading with a removable door is ideal) and place a comfy bed in it somewhere in a room the cat likes to hang out. Leaving treats or wet food can also help them get over the initial anxiety of going in. I worry a bit about taking a cat in to the vet's on a leash since that puts them on the same level as dogs who might want to go after them

Amazing how quick Ecuador learned!

I watch all the videos put out even if they don’t pertain to me or relevant to me, cuz I wanna support this women. She is literally the definition of pure.

Honestly that went far quicker than I expected. This bird is smart. Or at the very least very observant.

When Ecuador made that sound it wasn't so bad but then my cockatiel responded and OWWWW

Brilliant training as always. You bring so much joy to the session and the animals.

I have two budgies who I have trained, its so fun to see exactly how their personalities come out in training. They've each got their own distinct wave even though I taught it to each of them the same way. Sometimes a strategy to try and teach a behavior will work like a charm with one while the other doesn't quite get what I want. Its a lot of fun!

Woah!! This was absolutely delightful, you should definitely do more of these.

Loved this video so much! 😍🦜

Ecuador's yelling is so funny, when there's a quiet moment and then suddenly "EEK EEK EEK!"

Joy is an absolute Joy! She just shows so much enthusiasm and I know that that comes from having an amazing bond with Jessi!

My blue and gold macaw that I am adopting was trained as a baby but still needs free flight training, thank you though! I can use it for later. Im so excited

That was great...don't often see someone working with an untrained bird...good job!

Your enthusiasm is just wonderful!!

I think Ecuador has you trained! When he squawks, you give him food. Works every time! hahaha! I love you and all the animals (especially the birds).

One of my old rats Cass knew the circle trick, but I called it ‘spin’. His treat bag had a very thick crinkly plastic so he got used to that sound meaning he’d get a reward. I had a cold and was digging for a cough drop out of the bag when I looked over to find him spinning frantic circles on the carpet. He heard the cough drop bag and thought we were working on tricks 😂😍

Omg, Ecuador is a genius!!!!😘 good boy, such a quick learner!!!

Birds are such amazingly aware creatures they really crave new experiences, in a good relationship the human provides it with new and stimulating mysteries, in a sense the human and bird are mutual pets to eachother or more so than most pets and if the human is ready to learn their bird the bird is often eager to learn their human.

Your videos are so amazing Thanks a lot 😊

that was amazing, this lady is really good at training birds. She taught that bird who had no prior training 3 separate tricks in like 5 minutes.

Thank you for sharing this! Not only was it really interesting to see a first session, Ecuador did so well! Would love to see updates on his progress ^_^

Target training in particular is extremely useful for species that could be dangerous if they have a strong feed response. Like target training komodos for feeding time so they can be safely handled for vetting and whatnot in zoos. Anything can be trained with the right technique, from ants to fish, lizards to birds, mice to elephants! Patience is the key to success

This was very neat! I've trained my eclectus to turn on command, recall to me, and fly to her cage. Right now I'm working on refining a behavior to turn off light switches and just starting to teach her to turn the other way. I've tried teaching wave, but after a few failed step-ups, she just gets frustrated and stops even trying, so I figured I'd wait for a while on that one lol

There is so much professional advice on dogs and cats but very little on parrots and in my opinion parrots are difficult because they are so different from the other pets we keep. Parrots are naturally very dependant on their flock and have such strong instincts that we can easily make mistakes with them or misunderstand them. Love your channel and everything you do for the animals. Thank you.

Hi! Animalwonders I have notifications on so I got this video right away :) I have a question, my 2 budgies that are kinda tamed but they are scared of fruit and vegetables, Do you have any tips on this behalf?

@animalwondersmontana

5 жыл бұрын

What do they enjoy eating? Most budgies eat a seed mix or small pellets. Try chopping the produce very small and mixing it in with the food they like to eat. Go for a gradual lean into it. Texture is usually the most important determining factor for if a bird likes a food or not. Try moistening their pellets and mixing in the little tops of broccoli and cauliflower that's the same size as their pellets. Or sprout their seed mix so the texture changes from crunchy to soft and then mix in broccoli bits and finely diced apple.

My rats twirl when ever they want treats. It is heart melting how eagerly they spin around and look at me expectantly.

Both of my birds just flew up and picked me. We live out in the desert, and our yard is like an oasis. We have lots of wild birds in the yard. I have a ringneck and a budgie. Both showed up at different times. The ringneck came like 3 or 4 years ago, and the budgie a month ago. They landed here, and here they are. The ringneck likes to crawl all over me, but he won't let fingers near him. He's just started letting me pet his toe, while he's on my finger. He'll take food from between finger tips, but not off of a flat hand.

I was wondering if parrots tend to imitate the noise of clicker after a while. I have a refuge for parrot and would love to start training them but I’m afraid that they will start to make the clicking noise after and drive each other crazy XD have you had that problem?

there's 2 "genus" (major subspecies) of conures: Aratinga and Pyrhurra. Aratinga includes Sun and Jenday (like Ecuador) among others, and they are slightly larger, as well as much louder and much "flashier" in coloring. Pyrhurra conures, like the Green Cheek Conure, are smaller and have much softer voices, and tend to predominantly green in coloration. if noise isn't an issue, Aratingas genus conures are absolutely gorgeous. Pyrhurra genus conures are much "gentler" in volume, if you live somewhere like an apartment. that said; quietER is not the same as straight up quiet! Pyrhurras (and basically any small parrot, really) can be plenty loud when they feel like it!

Is Willow safe to use for birds/animals? I remember learning in college that Asprin (acetylsalicylic acid) comes from Willows (Salix). Not sure if it's all species though.

Always end training on a good note!
