I have Touché now and he is so special to me! I adopted him shortly after he came home from Jamileigh’s. His wings are perfectly grown out and he zooms and twists and turns in and out of rooms! He loves his flock of Caiques, an Eclectus and a Cockatiel. He’s picked up several phrases too. I enjoy seeing these videos of him because I can now see what Jamie worked with him on. He hasn’t forgotten anything! ❤️

@NormalBirdLady lol I’ve had him for almost two years now (I think🤔). He wants to love my new Eclectus (his first best friend/Eclectus passed away last October. He was on another BirdTricks video called “This Eclectus HATES men!”). Niko was amazing and Whiskey (my new boy) is also just amazing! Touché was so unbelievably excited to see Whiskey because he thought it was Niko. It broke my heart because clearly Touché was missing his friend sooooo much but Whiskey and Touché have a “careful” bond🤣. It’s a love-hate relationship. You can catch up with Touché at touche_indyboy on IG. I’m not on there a lot but you can see what he’s been up to😁

Seeing Touché being so enthusiastic when Lefty arrived reminds me of my own indian ringneck Leo. I realized that ringnecks get more enthusiastic when they are jealous. I got two ringnecks myself and my girl Maya used to be a super scared bird but overcame her fear by watching Leo getting treats and being jealous because of that. Leo will push Maya away to train and get treats from me, too.

Touche shows us that a little healthy competition can go a long way in motivational training sessions.

Oh man thank goodness you clarified this was a video from two years ago!! I saw this and was like WTF THEY BOTH ARE BACK?!? Nooooo!!!! Lol

Aww his little noises are adorable 🥰 I’d say a bit of both. Ricco is definitely curious of everything, but still cautious .

I remember from a different video they tend to be more vocal when heightened, and noticed with the uncomfortable hand over him he started using his voice. I admire the bond though still, because even though he was uncomfortable he obviously still trusts you.

Touche is sure making an extreme effort to do better than Lefty !

On the surface: Calm, collected, helping all, trying to train. Beneath: "I love Capri... I love Capri... It's going to be okay, I love my family... I'll just have to wait or I may pop... Can I just get five minutes of alone time with this bird to desensitize??" At least, those are like the moments I have as my kids come "meandering" around during training or me trying to work in general... Love them, just want to stay focused sometimes! It's like the invasion of the bathroom when they were smaller... Potty time was precious when it could be had lol

He made that first peep and my Sunny jumped out of his skin LMAO

I loved this Ringneck Parrot 🦜! Interesting to watch your Training Session. I loved the little one too! Both are so cute!!! I love the Ringneck’s sounds n when he speaks. I enjoyed watching…!!!!!!! God bless you for loving them..🙏🙏🦜🙏🦜🙏

My ringneck is curious, but very cautious about anything new... so takes a lot longer to get him comfortable. He’s a gentle soul compared to my greencheek.

You are so amazing with these guys!

aw that unwanted by human in the title hits me in the gut all the time lol

The noise he makes sounds like "Yeah, why do you ask?" in my language, so this video just got funnier.

I see that curiosity vs. Confidence thing with my sun conure. He is willing to fly just about anywhere but once he gets there it's a different story. He likes to fly to people that are walking around, however he doesn't particularly like all of us in the house..so once he flew to my son, landed and bit immediately.

The little tippy taps on the counter from their feet 🥺😍

That was cute to see both birds on the counter. I noticed at times that they were both slipping and sliding.

My cockatiel is not afraid of anything… My Indian ringneck, on the other hand, is afraid of everything LOL. He’s very curious but he will fly away the second he gets suspicious. Even though I’ve had him since he was a baby, he is very suspicious and it takes a lot to gain his trust. I work with him on all the things that trigger him in hopes to desensitize him. So to answer your question, yes I agree!

It genuinely warms my heart to see how far lefty has come 🥲 I have been following your videos, reading, studying up, visiting with birds for the last year and my heart was and still is really set on an Indian ringneck. However I feel like it is possible a Quaker parrot may be more suited to me at this point in my life and my living situation and personality. But I just can’t decide!! Haha. I have been working with this blue Quaker parrot at a local petshop/aviary that my heart has sorta pointed me in the direction of but I have a breeder I’ve spoken to about getting a ringneck hatchling in the spring. I just can’t decide haha. Maybe I’ll get both 😅

You such a good mom and bird trainer

Ive gotta remember..”no birdtricks videos when i’m trying to leave”. I get sucked in every time and now i’m gonna be late, again!

i want an indian ringneck just because they make the cutest sounds lol

I agree-- they always act super confident, but I've found they're usually not. They love to get into stuff, but their usual knee-jerk reaction to new stuff, or quick movements, is usually to lunge first and then explore after it's determined it's not a threat. I think that's part of what the "bluffing" stage is that people talk about.

The 2 parrots together training chaos, welcome to my normal training situation! lol Was nice to see it here, stops me being so hard on myself when my training fails to make much progress because of it :) I've got 2 hyperactive lorikeets from a bad home, too scared to leave their cage, not bonded, but use each other for security. Training for me has to be done on the large cage door & pumice perch attached to the door, so that it can be just outside the cage for training, but still give them an easy escape back into the cage as needed, so that I can get them to agree to come out to train. Each of my sessions is the same as that 2 birds session, both fighting over who gets to train, grabbing the touch stick & treats (I use a syringe of fruit juice, which means they can hold it in their beaks & refuse to release even when no more treat is coming out), so same chaos as in the video every session, except add on top of that, that mine have only very limited spaces to sit/stand for training & scream at each other if the other one takes their space (so imagine if Lefty & Touche refused to be anywhere but on that perch & wouldn't let the other on the perch while they were training), with the most timid/abused one (that is therefore by far the hardest to train) being the dominate one in that. So we do step up sideways sliding off the perch onto my hand & repeat & repeat & repeat. I've got the other one now actually stepping up properly, but that's as far as we've got. I'm trying to work on "stay" as I move my hand while the bird is on it, & we can do that a little, conditional to my hand returning to the exact same spot, but anything beyond that is really too much for them & we're back in the cage (timid one tends to throw a screaming tantrum at my hand for me daring to move it first) Anyway, yeh, nice to see my training situation on video :) & I really don't think there's any good work arounds for mine, other than time & building confidence & trust. Breakthrough though, yesterday my timid one decided to let me touch her head :))))))) & we've just done it again now too! Pretty sure she's got some hormonal stuff going on with that, she was playing with my hand like lorries play with each other & eyes dilating/relaxing dilating, but I'll work on that later, meanwhile I'm just sticking to touching only her head & enjoying that she's FINALLY letting me touch her :))

I agree, I'm working with an albino right now. She is very curious but she has PTSD of hands because what the pervious owners did.

Hey, I need advice. My two budgies that I got about a week ago recently started eating millet from my hand. I let them eat several times before trying to move onto stepping up. Both of them refused, so I tried to use a small wooden perch and get them to step up, but they were scared of it. I'm not really sure how to get them to do this. Was there a step I missed? Do I just keep trying a few times a day?

Will you ever do a lovebird video? I would love that :)

Where do you buy those stands like the one Lefty is on?

Touché is so cute!... His training videos are just as cute because he's trying to go along with you & it's funny to see whenever he goofs up--literally. Do you plan on breeding him?...

what is your best food treat for taming mine is picky seeds eating only. mine is untamed and im trying lol

I think one of their main predators were snakes so your hand reminds him instinctively of a snake ready to strike.

I was wondering if parrolets are a good beginner bird? I was thinking either budgies or parrolets.

He's adorable! What happened to his poor tail?

Touche really is keen for the target stick. What if you cup your hand over the end of the target stick and see if he will touch it..click and praise as you do. It might work.

My cockatoo LOVES scrambled eggs. She gets her own cockatoo omelet just fer her.

How are lefty and Touche doing?

I think my 16 month old Ringneck is head shy because he was taken from the nest, placed in a plastic tub with other babies and any interaction began with a hand overhead and grabbed. Every. Single. Time. For the last year, every couple of weeks, as he suggles in my hair, he will invite me to scratch his head and the back of his neck. Our success is based on trust and invitation. But then I'm not on a time limit.. Understand this may be something that you cannot fix in a few weeks and allow yourself that. You've done so much already! Kudos!

I blend shell with egg.

Hey please make some regular shorts with jinxi and others goofing with u

When can you start teaching your bird tricks?

I was wondering about that yesterday. Like whether or not the camera and the fact that they can hear and see the lens constantly adjusting to stay in focus was making it difficult to train them. Maybe there’s a way to a-fix a camera to some glasses that isn’t to clunky or uncomfortable for you, so you cold get the shots of their body language cues from your literal perspective, and shorten training time in one go. All I can think of is Google Glass, and I'm not sure those ever really caught on.

I have one, my buddy Soda. He's extremely timid. 90% quiet Amd might be slightly blind? Lol I manage to have em rest on me but still extremely timid. He won't take anything from my hand .

Is this an old video? I thought she had lefty and touché a long time ago. I’m confused. Also, does she sell her natural feed mix? I would like to buy some. I know I can just make some myself, but it would be easier to just buy it.

I read that about Ringnecks before I got mine. That they are not food motivated. I tried fresh strawberry first treat for training. Never had an issue. I also started trust training with a simple "boop" on the beak. Just one, at random. If your bird is running from you, first try something scrumptious in the food dish. 1-2 bites only. Continue with scrumptious goodness from the end of a finger or flat hand, moving it from fingertip to palm. A little farther in after each success. This could take days or weeks, if he's terrified of hands. I'm no trainer, just a few years with birds. Luck!

Try the technique from this video, but with your body instead of hand, so stand there at a distance till he relaxes, then I guess click or tell him he's a good boy (my lorikeets really love being given verbal praise as a reward & don't have to be close to do that), other option is to step back as a reward when he calms for you. Then after a few minutes, take another step forward & repeat as many times as he's comfortable with, then leave, then do it again later. I had to feed & change the water for my rescues at night to begin with, cause they were so stressed about me near them, shouldn't take that long for him to get used to you if you do the hand thing from this video with your whole body though, maybe a couple of weeks of multiple times a day training before you can put food into the cage without distress

Today while we were training he took a few treats after the click well but the last one instead of taking the treat he bit down striking my hand. I’m still learning a lot about this particular type of bird. I’m not sure if I missed a type of distinct body language that would have warned me he was over it. Not sure…. I stopped the training immediately after that and let him have his space. Any ideas?

Breeder or rescue? There is a lot to consider but remember that no two birds are the same. You could get a ringneck that is super sweet and hand tamed or they could say it is but then it's aggressive. Are you willing to work through those difficult times (ringneck puberty can be challenging) or will you be scared of getting bit. I am sure you will make the best decision and wish you luck!
