Жыл бұрын

We finally got Apollo in his harness, He even went outside, talked and told us when he wanted to go back, then we took the harness off; all without any panic attacks!!! Unfortunately he freaked out after putting the harness on the next morning, so we are back to working on putting it on comfortably.
Apollo is our 2 1/2 year-old African Grey parrot we've had since December 2020.
Founder of Shrock and renowned GLASS connoisseur.

i’m sure he wants to stay longer outside, to feel the sun on his feathers. One minute outside and rapidly inside is nothing. Of course he will enjoy the sun and the fresh air also - like we do.

@@olgaknowsbestofficial he enjoys mimicking humans. that's what parrots do. and since he can talk, he can better interact with his owners, which is good, since parrots are very social. he's still a bird, just one that has been taught to listen to and talk like humans. nothing sinister here.

Not only does he get fresh air and sunshine, but he’ll now know what HOME looks like in case he ever gets loose. Many birds are lost from an open door and can’t find their way home because they don’t know what it looks like.

We love him though and he's spoiled rotten, grouchy and grumpiness included.

@@olgaknowsbestofficial Umm, Olga, this is filmed in America. That's an African Grey Parrot. African. Okay? If they "put him outside" he would die from starvation or predators because he is a.) on the wrong continent to survive on his own and b.) a hand raised bird that has no concept of living outside. If he were a Cardinal, Mockingbird, or Blue Jay it might be different and I would agree that those wild Native birds should be free. Not a tropical, hand reared bird, that has lived his whole life in captivity. That would be the equivalent of dropping a human toddler off in the African Congo, where the parrots are from, and say "good luck kid!"

The best way to do it is to let him chill on the porch for a little while a few times a week so that for a couple weeks so he can get used to being outside again, and then take him to the yard for an extended amount of time here and there. Eventually you can take him around the block a couple times a week so he can get used to leaving the house and then anywhere. Just gradually becoming a traveling burd , I think giving him too much too quick might actually do the opposite of what your trying to teach because it can overwhelm him.. just some advice, I hope you read this cuz I care about that brilliant bird and want him to be outside and enjoy the fresh air wind sun trees people other birds and the world

That was overwhelming for Apollo having spent months inside before this little trip to the garden. He clearly shows uncomfort being outside while handling all the unkowns. His instinct or knowledge tells him that he can expect danger from above and particularly from below. The way he is peeping around says it all...and then the roaring noises from every where plus completely unknown sounds hitting his ears.. .the short while outside must have been shocking for him. No wonder that he refused to take pistachios and started to bite every now and then.

teach the parrot to come to you when you blow a whistle with some very characteristic sound and then offer it food, since when birds are not seen, they call each other with sounds. In this case, if the parrot gets lost in a wooded area, it is very easy for it to blow the whistle and fly to where the whistle is (especially if it also feels hungry).

I remember this process with my big ole greenwing macaw, and let me tell you…you got it easier than me my friend 😂. Mine has four times the bite pressure of a pit bull dog, and three times the beak size of a grey. She shreds untreated 2x4 boards for fun. She hated and was overstimulated by the harness too, although she likes to go outside. She gets hyper the same way over it. We decided it was easier to just build her a covered aviary on the back of the house. The bottom is thick concrete pavers, the bottom of the sides is metal panels (sometimes used as roofing) screwed on to wood framework covered in PVC pipe slip covers (treated wood so it doesn’t rot, but covered in one of those thick white pvc pipes to cover the dangerous wood not safe to be chewed). The upper part of the cage is made of dog kennel panels including the top of the cage. This made the cage tall enough by putting the kennel on top of metal walls. They are powder coated and thick enough to keep her from breaking it, and everything dangerous is kept out. We put a metal roof on it made of the same panels. There’s no outside door so no one can get in. We take her into the cage through a secondary door inside the house that we butted the cage up against. We usually only put her out there if we are home anyway, but it’s definitely safe enough that she can be in it while we’re not home. We have all manner of creatures around our house because we live in a forested area and nothing ever gets her. If foxes, coyotes, cats, dogs, hawks, etc can’t get into this cage-nothing can. They’ve tried and failed.

Apollo Did so well... My grey is always kinda nervous when being outside, but thats just how greys are.. Always seeing threats everywhere. As long as you know, when the bird starts to be overwhelmed, is everything fine... I saw how your hands shook :D .. Taking the harness off of them is the worst part ever, I was never looking forward to do that after any of our walks... my fingers still hurt :D

They say that with cats and dogs you might wanna let them be with a harness also inside for some time, to let them get used to it. Birds are different sure but maybe being fussy about taking it off means he needs to adjust to it

You can tell he was really taking things in and then quickly assessed that 'outdoors' is just too dangerous. I like how he says "Glass" (wanting to get back to his window). I also like how quickly you realized that: 1) he doesn't want to be near the ground outside and 2) he wanted to go back into the house.

Yay! So nice! When we first took our African Gray outside, Jac flew away and never returned. He spoke English, German, French, and knew many songs, which i played outside for months hoping to lure him back. We put for in the roof and posted signs and everything. We live in Florida. I think he flew to Haiti for the Lady bird Action. Best wishes to you two and all the lovelies.

It is, they have worked long hours with Apollo. They have put lots of hard work and it shows. Apollo is so smart. My daughter stood and said her name Holly over and over. Until one day she pulled up out front in her car, got out and my Parrot said, Holly! Whose Holly...lol. They hear us even when we think they dont..lol

I used to let my Blue Fronted Amazon go outside a lot, he always loved it. Back when I lived in California, I drove him down to Dana Point Harbor and just walked around with him sitting on my hand. He would say hello to ppl as they walked by staring at him. A Seagull was sitting on a post nearby. He spread his wings and flapped them a couple times, which did freak my bird (Travis) out a bit, but I reassured him that all was well and that was it. Other than that, we had a great time.
