about how long does it take for the bird to to ajust and feel comfortable around the new owner and new home?

And what can the owner do to make it feel more comfortable so it can adapt quicker?

[tattoonsblossom]

i am going to get my bird tested but i don't know if i should bring him in a cage or i should just let him ride on my shoulder like i always do when he comes with me to get food.

[bringslovetoyou]

2:25 lol the caique pooped

[yes4roblox]

At the end the Cuckatoo attacked the small parrot.

[LucyET]

Yes, agree with others. I don't think people should get blood from their parrot themselves by "cutting the nails or otherwise!" Yikes!! At the least, it's a good way to have your parrot get phobic of nail trimming.

[sophiayoon1004]

[olik52]

godd birds

[MinusG]

lols

"hi my * censor* is ..

[kuwait126]

this vedio is lame i cant see anything lame!

[fobxluva]

female lovebirds chew up paper and put it in their wings, unlike males. i have a lovebird who i just found out is a female. i dont want a female. theyre cranky and hormonal and loud.

[Kjelstad]

@fobxluva yes, that is a good way to sex lovebirds. I bonded with a female and she still bit everyone else.

[datsyhoehoe]

Your male Eclectic looks like he's sick

[kawaii2525]

@datsyhoehoe He's not. He's just probably a rehomed bird that may have had plucking issues or still does and is not severely plucking however. 

[Luucy8]

Does anyone know where i can buy a parrot in australia? Also, are parrots kept otuside in their cages or inside?

[AvgStop]

lol, the caique pooped during his close up 2:26

[lilshortyk6]

haha they stopped it as soon as the birds started fighting lol awwww

[karenctran]

Where do you buy a kieek? It's beautiful, but I can't find it on Google or pet stores. Thank you for all of these bird videos, expertvillage!:)

[NTZY1997]

What happened to the greens bird abdoman.

[Peekablue]

It looks like he's going through a moult and is regrowing those feathers to me.

[jcastellano822]

You can also sex normal gray cocketiels visually too I think.

[parrotflock]

Getting blood from cutting their nails is a horrible way to get the sample, since you don't want to draw blood if at all possible. The best way is through a vet taking a sample through a blood feather or some other means. If there is an accident with a blood feather, you can take the sample and immediately treat the problem to stop the bleeding. Losing blood is a serious problem with birds, and should be treated as such.

[RoseTsukiyomi]

Basically, its just a good idea to have the vet do it and only very experienced aviculturists should try the method mentioned in the video.

[SessaFrost]

I agree. you can traumatize your baby for weeks after taking a blood sample that way! My african grey took nearly 3 weeks to let me pet her again after we accidently clipped her nails a little on the short side with a grinder who's sensor was (at the time we discovered this) not picking up how close we were to her quick with her black nails. A blood feather would be the best way to go as for what blood feather, sometimes, my birds being active, I find a tail feather is the easiest for a sample.

[gretasophical]

@parrotflock I've heard that cornflower can stop bleeding with birds. That is, putting corn flower on the site of bleeding.

[fairfresh]

@gretasophical

Yes that is true

[nemmo13]

@parrotflock it is true, that is a cruel way to tell if you`re bird is male or female, not just because it hurts you`re bird, but because it discourages trust in you and you`re bird`s relationship....
