@vyxynbabe -- not sure if this will allow, but i am going to try to post some links for you here. this may not be perfect, but it's for our pets (not professionals), and still very nicely done! the video mentions written instructions by trainer Tani Robar, so i have included the link to that in case you need them...

@vyxynbabe
thank you--glad you enjoyed :) will pm you--not enough room here to say all.

re: turn-around... there are some existing videos on youtube--one is by a kid, which makes it very endearing. plus, it will motivate you to do at least as well as a kid ;)

in that video, the lure is used over the head, while some of the big trainers will place the lure under the perch. you will have to determine what works best for your bird. note the video mentions written instructions by trainer Tani Robar.

also, Barbara Heidenreich, has some written instructions on goodbird.com

good luck! please post when you are successful :)

I love your channel, we are going to start to train our indian ringneck, and are adopting a rosebreasted cockatoo as soon as hes weaned, What I like about your training videos is that you don't just show the trick in its perfection leaving viewer to question..thats awesome but how do you teach that? Love the step by step it will be sooo helpfull. If you can could you possiably consider a video on teaching a bird to do one spin ( circle) for a treat? Ive seen it but they never tell you how to teach it. Thank you !!!!

Didn't have time to search site a lot: how old is Bobo? She is lovely! Ours is 6 yrs old but totally an indoor bird. Flies all over the house when out of cage. Use to "glide" around corners when he was clipped (when we first got him). Amazing footage of bike ride.

NIce videos of the grey parrots diving cursus!

I have two of them myself... One hates water, the other loves water:)

Hi. Bo the parrot's owner here.

I let his wings grow out to let him fly, but he didn't. He does not seem to want to. The wing movement you referred to means I want to go there. If he was trying to fly he could have.

Thanks for the comment! Love your channel.

sorry i cannot accept the vid responce, i need the vid to be responded by part two

to enoxkahraman -

oh dear!

do you have an avian vet in your area? that would be a last resort, but you should have one ready in case. you should go back to the breeder or store first, as they would know the bird best.

but if you can't get to the breeder or store, or if they can't help, you will need to bring it to a vet. did whoever you got it from guarantee that the bird would be healthy? you should be aware that cockatiels are very susceptible to intestinal parasites, so you need to make sure yours is healthy.

however, not eating when going to a new home is also fairly common -- esp with young birds.

no matter what -- check with the breeder or store asap.

where did you buy the bird? that is who needs to help you!! cockatiels will do that, but are you sure your bird is completely weaned? if a parrot is young, when they go to a new home, they sometimes revert and need hand-feeding. your breeder or store needs to help you through this.  try to find something the bird really loves -- milllet is usually perfect for cockatiels -- do you have any millet? that will get it eating something at least.
