Trick Training Requests!
Added 2024-05-28 14:00:02 +0000 UTCHey patrons,
I'm going to be continuing teaching my own flock tricks and documenting it for you in our 2024 edition of our BirdTricks Tuesday series. I'm looking for any specific requests from you guys on either tricks you want to see how to train, or specific species from my flock you want to see learn a particular trick. Please leave your requests in a comment on this post so I can hopefully work towards teaching you things that will benefit your birds!

How about tricks from Do More With Your Dog. You don't have to, but they give out trick titles to other animals than just dogs. Otherwise, I mainly love tricks with props. Fetch a tissue, the mail, put money in the piggy bank, put away color coded objects, skateboard, balance on a barrel roll, pull a rope, etc.

2024-05-30 00:17:38 +0000 UTCAre there a few tricks I can teach while the bird is in their cage? One of our birds loves my husband and viciously attacks me so I don't typically try to handle her. The few times I've asked her to touch the stick through the bars she's attacked the stick. She looks so sad when our other bird gets rewarded for treats. I've started giving her one or two treats in her pellet cup each time the other bird is finished training. I'm hoping she'll at least get the idea a treat/something positive can happen when I come by her cage.

2024-05-28 16:55:47 +0000 UTCI'm trying to go from the wave to like a high five with my parrotlet. I think you have done this with Blue?

Kathy Le
2024-05-28 14:49:12 +0000 UTCIβd like to learn husbandry stuff. Like eye drops, syringe meds, how to put cream on etc With more difficult birds Otherwise, Iβm still waiting for the backflip trick π€£
Li
2024-05-28 14:47:09 +0000 UTCYes! Was just about to ask the same - grooming if needed and veterinary care/check up
