KIWI from New Zealand

KIWI from New Zealand

This is Alexandrine parrot. His name is Kiwi because he is green and was born in New Zealand. He was born on the 6th of September 2023. I picked him up on the 23rd of December 2023.
His favorite treats are popcorn and walnuts. I am teaching him to say " Hello Kiwi " and " Give me a treat treat "

    What treat do you give kiwi? My Alexandrine doesn't seem to be interested in treats.

    Number one is walnuts. He just loves them, but I have to make sure that he doesn't eat too many. Otherwise, he also loves watermelon seeds, sunflower seeds, and almonds. And he hates pumpkin seeds. ( green one) . I'm not sure why your alexandrine doesn't like treats. 🤔 only the way is if you overfeeding. If my Kiwi eat too much, he has no any interest in any seed or nuts. But this happened only a few times since I got him. Maybe 3-4 times

    More time you spend with your bird, more will trust you. Every day after work I am spending 3 hours with my Kiwi. Saturday and Sunday, 4 -5 hours. He is always sitting on my shoulders. It doesn't matter what I do, cleaning,cooking, eating, computer or phone, watching TV...etc. if he is not happy , he will tell me straight the way , like this afternoon. He can get so angry but no more biting. He just screams and tells me to leave him alone.. He trusts me too much and never hurt me again. He is a good boy now. But I have to say , the first 2 months with him it wasn't as sweet as I thought before I bought him. 🙂🦜.

    thanks for the reply..my bird loves sitting on my shoulder but she'll bites my ear..she's 5 months old..when she's on my hand she will bite my finger..i don't understand her behaviour because she does'nt looks scared or mad..just calmly preening and suddenly bites...hopefully she will stop biting

    @@mamubig5313 when she bites you. There is some reason why. For example, my Kiwi used to bite me when i had only one light on in my room, or when he didn't sleep well the night before or when he didn't eat in the morning much just a little bit, or for example alexandrine hormone period it took him 3 weeks he was so aggressive, maybe next time when she try to bite you just look around and think what is wrong, it could be you did some fast movement and she got scared or some noises from outside, Kiwi was scared of some noises coming from my garden like screaming birds, or from the street like loud motorbikes, cars, walking and talking people on the street.... maybe she has some health issue. i don't know, it's hard to say from me. When she is on your shoulder, give her some treat like a little piece of walnuts, talk to her a good girl, good girl. this is what i did with my Kiwi

    Yep. the same as my one. In the beginning, when i got him. I couldn't even touch him. He gave nasty bites to my fingers on my hands and bit me in the ear. My fingers were bleeding many times, but I can say that after 3 months, we are good friends now. He is doing the same to my partner because she is not spending enough time with him. Yes, his beak is massive and powerful. Just be careful when he is closer to your eyes. He bit me under my eye once.

    Hi. Yes, I read about that 20 years ago. I never had any issues with my Cockatiels and Eastern Rosellas in my life. I was doing the same with both. I am sure it is going to be the same with my Kiwi. He would be sick already. I think it depends on how you are feeding your parrot and his diet. Healthy diet healthy bird 🦜

    Yes, he is beautiful! I was going to buy Indian ring neck, but here in Auckland are banned . You can't keep them. Then, I decided for Alexandrine parrot . A bigger version of Indian ring neck. He is awesome, and I have so much fun. He is over 4 months old. Still too young for his ring.

    Well. I hope Kiwi is a male. I really wanted male because they are better talker. He is getting a day, 15 min talking training. I didn't want to do any DNA because you needed 3-4 feathers with blood, and I didn't want to hurt my Kiwi baby. But if it is a female , I am still happy. 🦜

    Kiwi will do anything for his treats. ( sunflower seeds or walnuts ) . You have to always make sure that your parrot is getting his treats. The best time for training is before feeding when your parrot is hungry. I feed my parrot twice a day, in the morning and evening. It took me over 3 weeks. Every day, 10-15 minutes.
