Thanks for having us!! Always love hanging with the SharynZoo Crew!

We are so HONORED to have you 💕😘💕

Hi Jaimee-leigh, I'm curious as to the specific reason why you like to always be the one giving the treat. Is it to solidify good recall for free flight? We are currently on a harness until my grey's wings grow out and at the moment we had been giving treats to people to give to him when he steps up onto them. But we can change this based on reasoning! The why will help.TIA!

[@sharynzoo]

@@gastonthegrey5803 my advice to you is to go over to @birdtricksofficial on Instagram or BirdTricks on KZbin and ask the question under one of her videos 💕😘💕 I don't think she's looking at the comments here because she has to take care of her own comments under her own videos on her Channel 💕 It's a great question!

[@gastonthegrey5803]

No worries, thank you Sharyn!

[@BirdTricks]

@@gastonthegrey5803 if your bird learns every human = treats, they will associate everyone with food and think going to people is something that results in that. So when you don’t want that behavior or someone else doesn’t want it, you’re in trouble for creating the expectation.

Just adopted a 23 yr old African Grey. We are trying everyday to do the Noun Experience. She usually takes 2 times to see something new before she calms and accepts. She has her very first vet visit tomorrow and have worked with her new travel crate for a week. She now goes in and out herself. So hoping it all helps her tomorrow. We are also trying to get her to fly inside the house.

[@sharynzoo]

Congratulations 🎉 And thank you so much for adopting 💕😘💕 You're doing a wonderful job! She is very lucky to have you 💕

[@yellowpalms]

Omg two of my favourite favourites together , Sharyn is the most beautiful soul to grace my life. Her love of her animal family to the love of her own family . It’s been a tough year for her and this helps for her to feel the love of others. Xxx

Thank you for the video. My Charlie is terrified of any toy bigger than a food bowl. Any tips on best way to introduce the bigger toys. Thank you

[@sharynzoo]

Call do me a favor and contact birdtricks directly so they can answer your question I really don't know the proper answer to that but they would 💕

[@galipengoose1]

Looks like the babe loves the kisses. And thanks to you the conure is coming around. The brat likes the hippie better than me. Oh well I got this.

[@sharynzoo]

Great news about the bird coming around! Work with the bird more by yourself. Try to form your own bond with the bird without the hippie around 😉

[@aubrey_hash255]

I have a quaker and two budgies and I soon might have a mustache parakeet so excited 😁

Quakers are wonderful 💕 I love budgies! I'm so excited for you to get your mustache 🎉

Mynewly acquired African Grey Is crazy scared of me. He was a breeder that came from a hoarding situation. How can i get him used to me and know that i wont hurt him. He beats himsef up trying to het away from me.

[@taragriffith25]

Do you think if I live by a train station, if I get a bird - would it be scared of the train noises every day? I am looking at an apartment right next to a train track and I'm worried - I don't want my bird to get scared and die when I'm not there from a train or something crazy like that.

[@sharynzoo]

@@taragriffith25 unfortunately I don't have the answer to that you would have to message BirdTricks directly to get this answer. You can message them on Instagram instagram.com/birdtricksofficial?igsh=bjB3cHpicHR2d2t4

We have an African Grey Timneh that we adopted. She is very fearful of being touched. She likes getting kisses on the beak and getting on our arm, finger, shoulder, etc, but if we try to touch her, she freaks out. What do you recommend we do? Thank you!

[@sharynzoo]

Hi... This is Sharyn of The Sharyn Zoo. I would recommend that you contact BirdTricks directly on KZbin or Instagram. I don't know the correct way of training. I have 29 birds and I just sit with them in a quiet place and work with them very slowly. Sometimes I wrap them in a towel so they feel safe & comfy and talk to them very softly. I very slowly start petting their heads. Eventually they realize my hand is not a threat. My African Grey was wonderful, but never liked me petting her. Just like you, she would let me give her kisses and hang out with me, but the petting was not for her. All birds are different. I hope your Grey comes around in time. But if not, just respect her boundaries 💕
