  • Your videos are great, do pet stores sell clickers? i've recently adopted a galah, i think he is in his junior years, will i still be able to train him?

  • Yep, normally Petco or Petsmart sell them for under $2. And you can train any bird, no matter the age.

  • Should I keep my african grey hungry before training sessions? I wonder if she'll get really fat for learning more and more words. How often should I train her during the day?

  • It's good to work before your bird's normal meals like before you give it breakfast, before lunch and before it's dinner so it is more motivated. But if you don't want to do that, just keep it on a healthy diet (veggies, fruit and organic pellets) and give only treats (seeds, nuts) for training sessions.

    3 sessions a day is good.

  • What should I give my bird for treats during training sessions?

  • Depends on what it prefers. All my birds have different favorite treats so just put different kinds out and see what it likes best.
