  • Please consider removing this video from youtube. It shows poor handling methods that others might copy. Forcing the bird to fly in windy conditions when it clearly doesn't want to is not good and it looks like you lost the bird after forcing it to fly. Both are really bad for those of us who try to show people how to do it right. There are a number of us who successfully fly our birds and we encourage you to join us and learn with us and possibly avoid losing this bird. Chris Biro

  • Well?? Did the bird return?

    I have a Blue Gold as well as an African Grey and there is NO WAY I'd ever let them fly outside! If they decided NOT to come back, they don't have the skills to make it on their own. So why take the chance!

  • did he ever return?!

  • Id get it this looks ccoooooll fly bidy very pretty!

  • 0:30 Houson, we got a problem..

  • ur shitty ownership is probs why shes plucking.

  • Guess you decided you didn't want him anymore. Dumbass .  Mean and selfish and ignorant.

  • @thunderclankittypet I have no idea what the vet actually advised you to do compared to how you took what was suggested. Just because it is a vet offering training advice does not mean it is good training advice being offered. I applaud your vet for encouraging people to keep flighted parrots. The main thing people reading this need to know is that there is a safer and friendlier way to train pet parrots to fly outdoors. This video only shows how not to do it. As do your comments. Chris

  • @thunderclankittypet Yes ignorant people sometimes get lucky with their birds but that does not mean the approach they used should be followed by other people. There are principles that can be followed to help minimize the risks when training a parrot to fly outdoors. Though I would prefer this video be removed from youtube by the owner of the video because it shows poor handling skills and practices it also shows how not to do it as well as people's negative reactions to this approach. Chris.

  • He looks depressed, and probably did NOT want to fly, however you were SCARING your bird. It was obvious that the first time you tried to make your bird fly, and it clung on, that it wanted to stay with it's "Mother/Father" and not take off. No wonder your bird plucks himself, and he doesn't know how to take care of himself if he did fly off. Think of so many things going wrong. I reported this video for Animal Abuse, please, other viewers, do the same.

  • my god man. Your bird landed on the ground hundreds of yards away. Way to mistreat him. No wonder he plucks himself bald.
