Cressi looking at her tail with the tracker on is so cute and funny. Proper grey “what the heck is this?” Reaction. I love her. ❤️

[@GraceT]

When jamieleigh mentioned they were expensive, I was thinking maybe $200-$300. But no- the price starts at $1300 😭

[@Whateverhasbeenmynameforyears]

If you frame your chapters differently they will be added to your progress bar on your video and be integrated. You might look into that feature. :)

[@Allen-by6ci]

Did Jamieleigh just call me a nerd? Wait... I'm ok with that..

[@bkm2797]

Wow, this was fascinating and I always wondered about the details. So educational, and appreciate Marshall's willingness to sit with Dave and answer questions. Thank you!

Hello from South Africa Birdtricks:) I just want to say that my lorikeet Picasso and I have benefitted so much from your vids, wisdom and experience! I love your on point, non sensational channel and I always refer to you if I need trustworthy advice! Rare breed in social media! I live in South Africa close to Durban and I would love to connect with any free flyers around my neck of the jungle:) Hugs from vicky and picasso♡

[@babechiaoling]

Thank you so much for sharing this useful information, is it possible to have videos for teach people how to use Telemetry?

Love your videos ❤️

[@Lisaysusamigos]

I have a question, with the tail assembly, what size clip could you give Jinx? I have a blue-throated macaw and I am in doubt, because it is smaller than the araruna and I don't know what size to take, if the large or medium size. About gps

[@inaselmays6692]

How long will the bird tricks package be available? Really looking forward to getting one(hopefully)! 😁

[@elicohencohen]

Very good video! That's working as a same way to Falconry?

[@courtneymorris7709]

Whats a good brand for telemetry for a green cheek conure? I can't find any on the jnternet.

[@GraceT]

Is mike’s falconry supplies where you can purchase the telemetry kit?

[@tiffanythompson6178]

Haha, poor Cressie. She didn't care for that tracker at all! Kinda looked like a dog chasing it's tail. She is so cute!

[@lamiaaabdelkawy3937]

Love you❤️❤️❤️

[@JackieChui0629]

One thing I concern about tail mount is if the feather came off when free flying

[@briv5588]

Quick question cause I really need it 😅. For a budgie, do you have to force your bird out of the cage on the first week or do they have to come out willingly with you?? Because if you’re not supposed to force them out, i don’t know how I would do it because if I were to stick my hand it the cage, or even just put treats near my bird, it goes crazy, so the only way I would be able to get it out would be by forcing them out. I’m scared I’m just gonna have my bird grow up terrified of me.

[@Akx2515]

All these questions are answered IN the video peeps.

[@cometfalconry]

You just gotta do falconry lmao We use that same telemetry and weighing ideas and a lot of other stuff lol

[@langBurk]

do i use gps on eclectus?

[@keerthimohan2370]

Is telemetry suitable for pacific parrotlets bird .

[@miguelangelgalindo3124]

What is the radio frequency they work, because a frequency that is legal in some regions to use it may be illegal in other parts of the world and you can get in real trouble.

[@syedali251]

where i can buy GPS I am based in London UK

[@darkshadow4250]

Are these devices water and dust proof?

[@ghost_of_sparta644]

Can an African gray parrot use a GPS or the bird is too small ?

[@parkerhasnolife9243]

Hey i was wondering if I got a GPS unit for my Scarlet Macaw if it would chew off its tail feather? And if it did how bad does the damage look, And will it grow back? So many questions LOL, Please let me know!

[@Akx2515]

All feathers grow back (usually…) it just takes a long time.

[@dawnmalcolm1961]

Is there anything comfortable enough to leave on all of the time, just in case of an accidental escape? What about ankle bands like they use with homing and racing pigeons?

[@larskossen570]

anklebands on pigeons only show on computer where they haven been when they come back. Think you need something to locate your bird when lost. I fly my harris hawk with a 20 gram gps on his leg, bird weighs 680 grams when hunting and doesn't mind the gps.

[@Akx2515]

Which one can I put on Alexandrine parakeet?

I think it's the telemetry only. As alexandrine weight only 200-300G

[@AyaadhAmeen]

Which one should I put to a budgie

[@nightfox4693]

I think all of them are going to be too heavy for the budgies.

[@HaiderAli-yz5bu]

What is the cost of GPS tracker and how to put clamp on feather of bird l need a GPS tracker for my macaw

[@Heyoo1400]

1300$

[@kiki29073]

They have to come up with the technology to make the gps unit smaller.

[@kunala6]

This is off Topic but has anyone ever had problem getting home owners insurance when you have parrots? My fiancée and I are moving and purchased a home in FL, I am not sure if this is just an issue in FL, but we called a few insurance company, a couple of big companies like Progressive. They asked if we have any pets, I have an Illiger's Macaw, because of him I was not eligible. I told them I can get pet insurance for him so they don't have to have him under home owner insurance they said no, I am ineligible just because I have him. Surprisingly they will accommodate dogs but not parrots. Right now he is at my parents, I don't think they have him under their home owners plan, and I don't want to call the company and have them cancel because of him. Any suggestions?

[@medea27]

You might have resolved this by now, but this doesn't sound right - if you are insuring your property it's normally the building and/or contents you're insuring against major damage/loss such as flood, fire, theft, etc. It might be different in Florida but that's pretty standard across the home & contents insurance industry - you're _not_ insuring yourselves or your pets, nor any damage _done_ by yourselves or your pets. Important details for your insurer are things like which suburb you live in, do you have a house alarm, do you live on a flood plain - it's irrelevant if you own a parrot because you can't claim for any damage done by a parrot, or a dog, or any pet. You mentioned pet insurance which is also completely separate because it's health insurance for your pets - not insuring the property. The only possible reason I can think of to ask about pets is if you have special structures that you're wanting to cover, like an aviary - but normally the insurer will just ask for additional premium to cover it, not use it as a reason to avoid taking your money! This sounds really dodgy to me, because having pets is irrelevant to most insurance policies - I'd check out comparisons online to see what's going on.

[@meltona2]

@@medea27Homeowners insurance always includes a liability component. They’re worried about the bird hurting someone and that someone suing.

[@furnfeathers]

What about budgies?

[@francescacavaliere7982]

Hi is it possible to have the telemetry 24/24?

[@BirdTricks]

It is designed to be used during planned outdoor flights. Not sure a bird would tolerate 24/7 and would most likely end up chewing on it. Battery life is also an issue and would need to be changed constantly.

can the hahns macaw use the gps instead of telemetry

[@BirdTricks]

For a Hahns Macaw you would want to go with telemetry. The GPS would be too heavy.

[@enakojic]

wait. why are daves ankles so skinny? no hate just confused 💕 17:40

[@Sakura0754]

I've heard people use apple air tags on a harness, any thoughts on these as an alternative?

Yeh was thinking bout it if u do do it please update

[@waseemagherdien3553]

Can Jamie make more videos

[@saykbg7095]

EARLY!

[@arbieb2405]

Actually....they are both telemetry. GPS is capable of keeping track of more than just location data while the smaller birds can only support location telemetry due to weight constraints....

What is price that gps

Update. Amazing service , I spoke to customer service in UK and they got back in touch , they spoke to directors and they have offered me a dummy unit they had spare . Really pleased and have made my purchase, can’t wait to try it. Having this fitted will make free flight a more relaxed experience for a newbie. I can’t bear the thought of loosing my wee one ❤😊

[@hilarysheppard3834]

Are you not worried about the health of your birds, these are wire less, so that means, they are being radiated, am shocked that you could even think about this stuff, to me it's a no no, just like a microwave, I have also noticed you have your phones in your back pocket of your jeans, i keep meaning to send a message, but now i feel it can be added on, These people who sell this stuff it's called money, they will liejust to get you to go along with it, when the birds start biting african greys suffer from electro sensitivity, they go crazy in flight if there are any emfs about please please STOP
