  • Birds most certainly DO have dominance, in the sense that they're very territorial, and the caique is moreso than most other species of parrot. The birds often spar vigorously with other members of their species, and may well be brawling in this video.

  • @gildarsleeve birds can be territorial but territorial doesnt equal dominance. If they were 'brawling' they would get hurt, and brawling is not something I allow. There is no way I would film parrots fighting just to put on youtube.

  • @gildarsleeve Birds do not have dominance in the same sense that humans, dogs, or cats do. Caiques are territorial, but territory, and dominance have nothing to do with this video. This is simply 2 birds playing. There is no 'brawl'. You must understand that a caiques way of playing is extremely different then other bird species.

  • they wrestle then they kiss!! very cute video. your caiques are beautiful!!

  • @rita191919 Thank you!

  • its obvious who has dominance. personally i think its time to start evening ths scores, the owner should of stepped in and told the dominant parrot off!

  • Birds don't have dominance.. if you knew next to anything about caiques you'd know this is natural play for them. If anything of the sort had gotten too rough I'd step in. Its PLAY. Hence the title of the video?

see all

  • This is natural. They aren't fighting at all. I've seen birds fight and they are most definitely not. Very pretty birds. :)

  • It definitely looks like a fight for dominance to me, not playing.

  • Yeah...they are definitely fighting.

  • supercute yellow trousers! anyone who thinks this is fighting clearly has not owned pet parrots before

  • @KempoKyushoMuayThai Caiques as babies cost around 1200 dollars. just for them. They do require alot of up keep. Mine total was around 1450 total. That includes the cage and toys but caiques need alot of toys. They also require alot of handling time. Its like they are on crack all the time they are very very time consuming. but they are worth it!

  • i love caiques! cheack out mine!

  • thanks for the posting, I had a caique for over seven years they're a handful!

  • about how much does it cost a month to keep one of these? ive been thinkin about gettin a Caique but i need to know the monthly cost. and how much were each of them?

    if yu could let me know thatd be great thx!
