2020-11-09 18:00:03 +0000 UTC View PostHalo (morning, mom!)
I send little clips to Halo's mom special for her sometimes like this. The trick to getting them to explore more foods is by making it more baby formula related. This could mean making it a warmer temperature or mushy like the formula (even puree it) or by actually combining it with some formula ...

Construction Update!
The building ended up needing more back fill as well which I forgot to mention in this update. I am hoping to put a type of porch off the side of it as well so I can move the aviaries outside in the nicer months.

2020-11-02 18:00:00 +0000 UTC View PostHalo | toy playing
With baby birds, they naturally want to test their beak strength on things. This is ok, as long as it's the right things! Providing a variety of toys from the start is super important so they are open to all sorts of colors and textures to try with. Getting Halo to play with toys while I was pres...

Our cameras are being funky so we had to break this into two videos! Thank you all for your questions this month!

Capri wanted Halo so badly on her lap... (notice the use of distraction and misdirection)

Harness training was a big deal to Kim for her macaw Halo. Harness training is easiest when birds are young so its just a way of life. Its a great method for being able to take your bird on outside walks with you and get it used to the noises and breezes and all the things.

2020-10-17 17:00:00 +0000 UTC View PostHalo | ep. 3 outdoors
Safely desensitizing your young birds to the outdoors is awesome to do early on because then when they do get out (even if accidentally) they won't be overwhelmed with one hundred "first" experiences at once.
2020-10-15 17:00:06 +0000 UTC View PostTasty Tuesday (A batch and a half!)
Normally I double my recipe in my cookbook for my seasonal feeding system... sometimes even triple (whoaaaaa) but this time the store only had enough for me to do a normal batch... and a half. So that's what I did. Also, I realize the timing difference but this was my summer batch for the summer ...

Hey guys! I made a new POWER PAUSE video and although it's long I am hoping it shows enough detail of what to do (as well as what not to do) that people can understand the concept enough to use it successfully.

Halo (bath time!)
When you bathe your bird early on in their lives, they will like it... it's natural for young birds to enjoy it because its in their instincts to bathe! The hard part is making sure throughout their life water is never used as punishment or made to be unenjoyable, and it's important to bathe ofte...
