@nips4u1 when i first git my indian ringneck the bird didnt want to be stepping up but a found a good corner of my house and told it to step up because it doesnt have anywhere to go
I wish you can help me in real life with my lovebird :[ It gets on my shoulder if it wants to but never my fingers. Therefore I can't really pet it since its scared of my fingers. I was told it was handfed and friendly but the pet seller didn't say it was tamed........
You will also notice the head is not plucked because it is not able to pluck it's own head. That bird probably had an owner who died and she is rehabilitatinig it into a better state. You can see the bird is very smart and seems like the type who needs lots of attention.
That is a bird who plucked itself. It is not her fault. She is probably a rescue for the bird or she would not be taking the time to work with it. Cockatoos are well known for plucking if they get lonely and stressed out. They can also self mutilate for no reason known cutting deep holes into themselves when they are very stressed out. They are called velcro birds because they depend on their human for all stimulation and when the human cannot provide it they pluck.
i use to pet an parrot. i was crazy to even try. but my parrot was weird. she loved me and it was funny when i pet her cause everytime my mom got near her , she would get pissed very bad, my mom thought it was funny , but she stoped messing with the bird because she said the bird could have a heart atteck,, and we got rid of the parrot to my older sister and i died of some kind of bird cancer
@weloveketamine Why is everyone yelling about that SHE have done something to the parrot instead of listen to the people that knows? I wondered at first too why the bird had very little feathers but then I read the comments and understood. Learn to read before you write or just don't comment at all!
The bird shown with the plucked feathers is an umbrella cockatoo, when these birds pluck their feathers its usually because of stress or loosing a mate. Most likely she got this bird from an abusive owner or someone else because I couldn't imagine her mistreating her birds. She seems like a nice lady.
i cant stand looking at that bird. not that i think it is ugly or anything just i find it sad that you haven't got her to the vet for her plucking problem
@MrHobbyenthusiast put a little cone over her neck to stop her plucking problem. i don't doubt that she may have had a bad owner before but that is a problem end of
For those who are wondering, this bird was obviously at some point either abused or neglected. Parrots in such a situation will pluck their feathers. It is a form of "Bird dementia" or insanity. Basically, a bird that is abused or neglected will go insane and pluck it's feathers.
@mattxr2i you're right and wrong at the same time. Birds do pluck out of depression, fear and stress. But this bird has a dissorder, its hereditary to these types of birds. Look it up. doesnt mean he's unhappy or was treated bad, he just has an illness.
What happened to that bird? I think it was a result of an experiment with beta ray radiation :B It obviously plucked itself like some parrots do when they feel neglected what the fuck do you think happened?!
This woman is obviously nursing it back to health. How do I know this? I read the description; try it sometime before asking stupid questions.
@seewat try unsalted sunflower seeds. I have a lovebird and he loves them. They're a bit smaller than a parakeet and he has no trouble with them, so your parakeet will probably like them.

IT SEEMS THAT SHE LOVE BIRDS BUT WITH A PARROT LOOKING LIKE THAT...THAT PARROT PROBABLY GOT RESCUED OR SOMETHING!!! SHE WOULDN'T HURT A PARROT!!! EVER.
I thought the bird was just molting. It happens at a certain point in a young cockatoo's life, their feathers fall out so they can grow bigger stronger ones... maybe im wrong, im no expert >.>
I am so happy that atleast someone replied.... Actually I love birds (Parrots especially), I m up for all the hard work but my history with bites scares me...My little green parrot once bit me so hard that my bone could be seen in that finger joint of mine.... and the worst thing is that u cant have revenge on them...They are so cute...:P
I am really afraid of parrot bites...I have been bitten so many times.... I had a green parrot and was quite smaller than that parrot in the video.... and he bit hard... I wonder how bad would that big parrot bite....probably chop the finger apart...
ya ive noticed that to,i have a ringneck aswell even tho it it hurts when he bites my bros english budgie bite me while i tryed to clip his wings and it hurt worse than my ringneck
@DannyDeVitoLover thats not from plucking, thats a heriditary disorder birds can get. He was ill at one point, does not mean he was treated bad or he is unhappy, he has a disorder.
@schlaznger The bird is molting. Its a natural occurrence in which they loose and regrow a large majority of their feathers. It's like how our skin cells have completely been replaced after some time, they just rush through it in a very short period with small feather loss throughout the years
koochmonkey i have the answer your bird isnt getting enough attention that day or at all greys umbrella cockatoos and other parrots need alot of attention you need to train her to step up search how to train a parrot to step up on youtube and it shows how my bird used to do that untill i gave alot of attention but not to much then they did the right stuff well theres your answer
my parrot puts his head down so i can pet him but do cant get on my finger because whenever i put my hand near it to get on, he just put his head down. what do i do? please respond, i have a aferican grey parrot
From all of the videos I've watched from expertvillage, my guess is that the cockatoo is a rescued parrot. Missy was a traumatized bird who plucked her own feathers. She now seems very happy and content. I haven't seen a single training clip that I didn't agree with. So with all of this valuable knowledge, Missy's feather plucking ~isn't~ because of any neglect of her current home or handlers! For those who don't know, her feathers will grow back, even without a vet. She's now in good hands!
my budgie likes to get touched all the time, then i come near him with my finger, he turns his head to get scratched. I can lie my nose over his head and he just sits there in half sleep :)
whats with all this US military talk? what the fuck does that have to do with parrot training? if you wanna argue about politics and rights, fuck off somewhere else and do it.
You should NEVER wave your hands around, or move fast like that around a bird. See the way she reacts? They see this as a threat. This bird has a serious problem, or has had one. This is why they pluck their feathers. This is one reason we don't suggest people new to birds get a Cockatoo. They require a lot of attention, and if they don't get it, they will do things like pluck or mutilate themselves. It is sad, and a hard habit to break once it starts.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
i agree dude this is a good vid..but probably best to have a well balanced bird on display whilst your doin it..this kinda like a tourist attraction video for iraq...sure the place sounds nice and warm..but look at the fuckin state of it
Dont talk about a place that has been demolished&dominated by the US to look the way it looks now when you dont know how beautiful it was before your ignorant narrowminded friends and family joined us military to destroy it for oil.
Jesus have mercy on the souls of the us military that murdered innocent ARAMAICS that lived in Iraq&caused muslims to murder many aramaics as well. Bahebak Aramaic Suryoyos the first christians to ever follow jesus
thank you very much! <33 You made me smile. It's great to know there's still people who will stand up for other people. You're the best Minimoviesinc!
Lulu please forgive that i ever took foot in the middle east in wearing a U.S military uniform. Remember every one has souls and there are still good people in the U.S Army.
:D...Well, thanks! And yeah, newjersey02, I believe there are many soldiers that are good, and I think it's wrong to generalise in any case. I don't balme the US soldiers anyway, it's the politicians and the corporate giants who control them who are at fault.
my bird only likes seed and millets - i have tried leaving treats of all kinds, but he avoids them at all cost. can u help with this behavior? i know he would enjoy them if he would try them.
Have you tried sharing them with him? Sometimes when they see you eat them, it helps. Also, you could try making it smaller, such as chop things up. Sometimes the size of some foods are threatening. It depends on the type of bird too. You should join my parrot help group on Yahoo Groups. It is also called Parrot Flock. I am starting a parrot help podcast this month as well, and will announce it there.
She is a feather plucker, which is due to emotional problems from a variety of reasons. It is common with Cockatoos, as they require a lot of attention. If they don't get it, they either scream or pluck, & many times do both. It is really sad to see, and a hard habit to break them from doing.
To those asking, this 'too plucks, it is sometimes due to a skin problem they pull feathers, or due to stress, boredom or loneliness.
Most of the rescue birds i deal with have plucking problems. Some, you can cure with enrichment, some with a bath under the shower head or a running tap daily to clean the skin, and some need special treatment from a vet to cure it. Once a bird plucks, it's a very hard behavior to stop.
Very good vid though, most birds prefer cheek petting to body petting.
You have to be very gentle when petting a birds head because birds have things called pin feathers and when you pet the bird wrong, the pin feather poke that back of the birds head. This can feel like shoving a peice of plastic into the back of the birds skull. Without knowing it, you could be causing your bird pain.
I did this with my parent reared ringneck it took a few weeks to get really close but now he's really cuddly with me and doesn't like any one else, yes it's time comsuming and you need to have a lot of patience but definitely worth it, that's true love for you!!
it actually plucks its own feathers she should really mention that the bird is a plucker rather than kind of ignoring it like this is my naked bird lets touch it...lol

You should NEVER wave your hands around, or move fast like that around a bird. See the way she reacts? They see this as a threat. This bird has a serious problem, or has had one. This is why they pluck their feathers. This is one reason we don't suggest people new to birds get a Cockatoo. They require a lot of attention, and if they don't get it, they will do things like pluck or mutilate themselves. It is sad, and a hard habit to break once it starts.

Dont talk about a place that has been demolished&dominated by the US to look the way it looks now when you dont know how beautiful it was before your ignorant narrowminded friends and family joined us military to destroy it for oil.
Jesus have mercy on the souls of the us military that murdered innocent ARAMAICS that lived in Iraq&caused muslims to murder many aramaics as well. Bahebak Aramaic Suryoyos the first christians to ever follow jesus
Learn some respect, jerk.

Lulu please forgive that i ever took foot in the middle east in wearing a U.S military uniform. Remember every one has souls and there are still good people in the U.S Army.

:D...Well, thanks! And yeah, newjersey02, I believe there are many soldiers that are good, and I think it's wrong to generalise in any case. I don't balme the US soldiers anyway, it's the politicians and the corporate giants who control them who are at fault.

my bird only likes seed and millets - i have tried leaving treats of all kinds, but he avoids them at all cost. can u help with this behavior? i know he would enjoy them if he would try them.
girlyprincess04 3 years ago
Have you tried sharing them with him? Sometimes when they see you eat them, it helps. Also, you could try making it smaller, such as chop things up. Sometimes the size of some foods are threatening. It depends on the type of bird too. You should join my parrot help group on Yahoo Groups. It is also called Parrot Flock. I am starting a parrot help podcast this month as well, and will announce it there.

Feather plucking is from boredom or sadness is similar to the human behavior of "cutting". It means the bird had some emotional trauma in the past.

She is a feather plucker, which is due to emotional problems from a variety of reasons. It is common with Cockatoos, as they require a lot of attention. If they don't get it, they either scream or pluck, & many times do both. It is really sad to see, and a hard habit to break them from doing.

To those asking, this 'too plucks, it is sometimes due to a skin problem they pull feathers, or due to stress, boredom or loneliness.
Most of the rescue birds i deal with have plucking problems. Some, you can cure with enrichment, some with a bath under the shower head or a running tap daily to clean the skin, and some need special treatment from a vet to cure it. Once a bird plucks, it's a very hard behavior to stop.
Very good vid though, most birds prefer cheek petting to body petting.

It's probably molting, they loose most of their feathers every once in a while.

No, it is plucking. Molting is never that severe.

did someone shave your bird?

You have to be very gentle when petting a birds head because birds have things called pin feathers and when you pet the bird wrong, the pin feather poke that back of the birds head. This can feel like shoving a peice of plastic into the back of the birds skull. Without knowing it, you could be causing your bird pain.
