crazy acrobatic caiques

this video shows the acrobatic stunts a 4 month old baby caique will do for attention. with appearances of our pet Dixie, (Great billed parrots), and 3 younger caique babies which are not quite weaned yet. One of the younger caiques also performs a summersault on her perch if you watch closely.

Lots of prior videos of yours that I need to get caught up on. Love the surfing around the cage - AND this is the first time I have heard Dixie talk! Hurrah!! She really was enjoying watching that baby!

@momkat201 LOL....I had forgotten about this video. Look how sweet Dixie was acting with this baby!! She doesn't pay that much attention to them now. She was just a baby in this video!!

The Caique is so cute! I am guessing this isn't normal Caique behaviour. How do you pronounce Caique? I'd pronounce it the same as Cake

caiques often will do carazy stunts like this, but I have never seen one do this particular stunt. they all seem to come up with their own acrobatic stunt all their own. it is hillarious and so entertaining!!

That Caique is so cute! Nani never does that back thing, you have a unique baby there. My favorite part is the GB parrot's commentary. hahaha

isn't she the funniest little acrobat? she really messes up her feathers doing this....but she thinks she is so smart when she does it!! She has a new home now and a new friend also. I am interested to see if she teaches her buddy how to do this back scooting little trick!! Our GB loves talking to the babies. She talks to them in the same tone that I talk to them....it's funny!!

Love this video. Caiques never seem to get bored, and always find ways to entertain themselves! I never tire of watching their antics.

SO cute! Just met my first caique at a bird sanctuary today and fell totally in love! Played and had snacks and cuddled for 3 hours straight!

Thanks for sharing!

Caiques seem so much fun! I love the games they invent like yours scooting along the cage floor on his back.

I have a poor-man's Caique, a Pineapple Green Cheek. See him and my White-Wing on my channel!
