[@estie_birbs281]

I've none stop commented on Caroline videos about proper training and the hormonal stress she is putting her birds. And instead of reading the advise she makes another video about how she deals with "Haters". Glory is 100% trainable its just Caroline that is messing up the training (she even made a video saying she was getting rid of glory! after only a month of having her!) Honesty I feel bad for glory, having an owner that is more interested in views than the well being of her birds) I don't hate Caroline I have just lost all faith in her as a "Professional parrot trainer"(as she calls herself)

[@MrJdubz100]

Years later and Carolin has learned nothing.

[@Reyairia]

I actually had unsubscribed from Caroline because I was getting frustrated at the way she treated Glory; it was very obvious Glory thought and behaved Caroline as her mate, but instead of realizing this, Caroline just decided Glory was too aggressive and blamed her behavior on Glory's previous owner, implying he was abusive towards Glory when he was not. On one hand, it was somewhat understandable; Caroline's other parrots did not show hormonal behavior towards humans, only other parrots, so Caroline was inexperienced with a bird that found humans sexually attractive. On the other hand, she made a video saying she was going to sell Glory despite the fact that the bird was given to her for free! by someone who trusted her to give her a good life. I said as much in several of her videos and as a final straw. I don't know if she just missed my comment because I was the only one or if she just wasn't listening and had made her mind up (a bad habit of hers) but here we are. And I don't even own birds (yet), I just had watched enough videos from around birdtube to figure out that hey, if a bird constantly wants to be on you, gets aggressively jealous of other birds, and screams when you are absent - yeah that bird most likely thinks you're her mate. I'm glad Caroline decided not to sell Glory (which would have DEVASTATED her) and finally listened that Glory was not a problem bird, she was just getting the wrong signals.

[@RiverCrystal]

Wow, thanks for sharing. Have never watched any of Caroline's videos, so the background info helps me see the bigger picture.

[@Nicky1026]

I had seen a video of hers where marlene visited her house and I was surprised at the chaos/easily was able to observe she was petting her bird in all the wrong ways. I'm also surprised that considering all the birds that she has that she wouldn't know these things, its shocking and scary to realize people have all these parrots but don't actually know that they require 12 hours of sleep or to not give them soft warm foods (I felt like these were basics) and for someone to own the number of parrots she does I would've expected more experience.

[@unicornwizhez4115]

I’ve seen a couple of her videos and despite her own “human training” even I don’t think parrots are really her thing :/ whether she wants it to be or not. Until consorting with bird tricks, at times it seems like she has had no prior experience or research before or during having them and has just been winging it the whole time. And honestly.. just her in general bugs me I remember her video titled people trying to steal my macaw and it was her macaw flying up into a tree her pretending he wasn’t hers and trying to coax the other people into getting him down like.. why? 🤦‍♀️

[@Bullen_3]

@@unicornwizhez4115 I agree. For one thing she has no clue on parrot body language and has 2 of the largest beaks of the parrot world basically in her face a lot of the time. And she communicates to all 3 of her macaws that she is their mate. And often she shoves them together when they don't want to be near each other. It's a recipe for disaster. As a matter fact Glory bit a hole in Love's beak,when she put them together in a crate. It is baffling that she didn't know any better,when she saw how aggressive Glory was, and knew she was used to being by herself with the other ppl for so many years. I really feel like you need to be prepared and have the right type of personality to keep parrots esp large parrots. And she doesn't have it.

Sometimes with a language barrier too many words is simply too many words. Would be better to not over explain. You have a willing heartfelt client who only wants to do what’s best. Maybe you just say 1. 12 hours of sleep, 2. Correct diet. 3. Don’t pet your bird like this. 4 we will show you what we want in target practice with our bird. 5. set her up for success. Do it indoors, make sure bird is hungry. Not ok to blame student for not understanding unclear over explained directions. You said bird was tired so wait. When the student doesn’t understand it is always laid at the feet of the teacher. The teachers job is to figure out what the student is understanding and help them. You did great by waiting to regroup.

27 for Macaw parrots is young-ish middle age. They can live upwards of 60-80 years, though it is common that most pass away around the 50 mark. 27 years for say, a conure of any kind is typically older. So it depends on the parrot for the age limit.

Wow, so helpful. I do have a question. Is her screaming good job to loud another reason why her bird screams too wanting attention or mimicking her? Just curious.

[@outoftime7740]

Glory was locked up in her cage, behind a closed door for a very long time. Her previous owner didn't give the bird any attention. So this bird stayed in her cage, in her own room, behind a closed door and she screamed for attention. When Carolin picked her up, she has been screaming uncontrollably and constantly since that day. That's all Glory knows how to do. Glory is now afraid of losing Carolin. So she is jealous of even humans. I don't believe it's hormonal. This bird is very scarred and going to take a miracle to fix. Glory would be fine if Carolin had only one bird, Glory and if Carolin could give her all her time.. But that's not gonna happen. Carolin has 5 other birds.

[@j.7658]

@@outoftime7740 Giving her all the time the bird wants to have is no solution. There are just so many things to improve there and there IS a hormonal issue, nobody can deny it. It's definitely doable to make Carolin a good bird Trainer and Glory a bird without behavorial issues since it's very obvious, that Glory thinks that Carolin is her mate. After or if they solved that problem their situation will improve.

@@j.7658 The bird is almost 30 years old. Males and female birds will give you their food. It's nature for them to do this. If they care about the person or care about something they like.

NikkiPog4444 if it’s working for your birds then don’t change it necessarily - birds ideally need 12 hours of sleep but ours also go outside during the summer.

Also it seems this has been a lack of sleep issue for a long period of time so it’s having negative effects on Glory.

So, I have a question. You guys are obviously busy and your birds aren't out all the time. I work and don't currently have anyone at home to spend time with my IRN until I get home, so he's in his cage for 8 hours. We have really good training times when I'm home and have made progress. What I want to know is do you leave foraging for pellets in for your birds when you're gone, before you come home and can do training with them? My IRN isn't hormonal and willingly goes into his cage for his pellet dinner before bed, but I'm wondering if I should be putting foraging toys in there along with his breakfast (he's still not 100% comfortable with my hands, so I don't want to invade his space more than I have to right now) so he can forage while I'm at work and then we do training when I come home, dinner, bed. He's such a small bird and it doesn't take much to fill him up, so I want to make sure I leave enough in there to keep him entertained, but so he's not full when I come home and it's time to train. I think my question is really just: thoughts? Lol. You guys are awesome. Thanks for being you.

[@MrJdubz100]

Wish Carolin would have taken you seriously. She still does what she wants.

[@scarcly]

Is that Caroline? 😂

[@j.7658]

So I've been noticing that she touches and strokes her birds like EVERYWHERE, isn't it a trigger for hormonal behavior? Or is it different with her birds or something? Just asking because you guys didn't say anything about it when she did and it made me wonder.

[@Kiryuu3]

There's also a video where she's rubbing around Hope's vent and calls it a "butt massage"

[@j.7658]

@@Kiryuu3 Oh my... Like really? So glad that Jamie and Dave are there to help her, Oof...

[@Bundyburger09]

They do mention it in the earlier video

[@sallywhite7678]

@@Kiryuu3 She also does a “raspberry” into Hope’s butt, then kisses the bird there in one of her videos.🫢😮😝

I love your channel but this woman shouldn't be giving advice on how to care for birds and I'm afraid she's only doing this for the exposure... Caroline is extremely problematic and she puts her birds in dangerous situations for views. I'm sure she'll find a way to turn this into some drama... I'm just hoping she's doing this for the right reasons. 🐦🐥

My birds get 14 hours of sleep, no matter what. I don’t see much of any hormonal behaviour.

[@ConfidentCritters]

I learned something new myself. I have no set lights off time in the bird room right now since i am hand feeding a couple new babies ive been staying up later to do so. I will definitely start setting myself straight and get those lights off earlier! I switch to using chop for breakfast but i have to redo it now because the beet root turned everything purple and my birds are not loving the color. My macaw eats hers now as long as i put a fresh sweet potato in there lol but my sun conures... they arent liking the color. I got more fresh foods to make a new beet root free batch and see if the color change helps me out this time! Lol

[@rebeccasuraci7666]

Guys..... don’t Be shitty . What if she really is adhd? What if the info explosion is just overwhelming? Honestly I can relate. At least she is trying. If shes there, she obviously cares and is recognizing somethings not working. Jeez. I have adhd and am overwhelmed by lots of things like my parrots and I only hope if I ever have the good fortune to get assistance (maybe from Dave and Jamie) there will be some patience there. All I can say is you try having adhd .

[@rebeccasuraci7666]

To clarify this is not directed at Dave and Jamie. More so the comment section

[@wwllmcheng]

Bird on proper diet together with the owner being serious , focus , hardwork, discipline and patience should do it...

The adhd could not stop laughing there was no doubt no attention there but do think she will get it.love watching both channels

[@daisyp5148]

I need those books for my parrots too!! Where can I get them!! Also I know Caroline can do it!!!

[@WillBlueAnimalTraining]

i like training my bird and would love to help others do it one day but eeing this makes me like my job.

[@deesapp6765]

I have read and heard that Hyacinth Macaws are even tempered and called The Gentle Giant. Where's the hot pink?

[@macman6421]

I can understand Caroline's reaction at 13:40 where Glory jumped onto her as that is a first step in getting Glory to learn to fly. I have made many of the mistakes that Caroline has made myself so I would not judge her too harshly but I do hope Caroline later learnt that she needs to take the instruction more seriously and concentrate on what she is being told.

[@jennifersue5079]

I have come to believe that some parrot owners actually like the chaos of their crazy hormonal bird . It’s all a part of their “Schtick”. I guess you can lead a horse to water . Frustrating .

[@leluefran]

Imho that is no ADHD, this is textbook histrionic/cluster-b. Very charmingly chaotic, drama and projection of own neediness. Kind of endearing, but no German accent ;-)

[@nocilantro_gack]

Oh yeah she has ADHD...always distracted and compulsively disclosing...
