How to Potty Train your Parrot | PARRONT TIP TUESDAY

[@gabriellav.e500]

My bird knows where the toilet is and whenever I head towards it he says “you have to go potty” 😂

[@dougswink3734]

That's awesome 😂 I really want a bird of my own. What kind do you have? Was looking at White Cockatoo

[@Alvaro-em1dj]

Doug Swink if its your first time, i wouldnt get a cockatoo

[@frankie1012]

🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@schleichgirllover2007]

Doug Swink yeah I wouldn’t recommend a cockatoo for your first bird, I would recommend a budgie or a cockatiel! I have both and I have an amazing experience with them, if you want any tips you are more than welcome to ask! :)

My bird saw that I clean her poo with a paper towel so if she ever sees a piece she goes and poos on it

[@orrixgirl]

What type of bird?? I rescued a pigeon years ago I found him on the streets of Dublin kids put an elastic band on the wing so it fell off from loss of blood supply poor bird still dreams of flying but he thinks he is a parrot he's gas with the cats who were kittens when we got him, he jumps on our huge Tom cat who lies back to let the pattot/pigeon Do his little I've attached you moves then scrapers so the cat can chase him when new ppl see them they think the cats about to eat the bird it gets rough but I've never seen dextors nails out ..I should try catch it on film but there sly about it sneaking to the kitchen when no one's looking for a role in the hay

[@Sebastian-oz1lj]

you are lucky one

[@punkyfeathers1639]

This is really great info! As a parent of 6 children and now a parent of feather babies it’s interesting how similar some of the techniques are in some cases. There’s a method of potty training young babies called elimination communication. You start right after birth. You pay attention to your baby’s cues that they show before eliminating. Then when they begin to show they are ready you hold them over a toilet or potty chair and say whatever words you use for peepee or poopy. This method is used all over the world.

[@prittyugly86]

I had a friend who wanted to do this to save money on diapers and it only lasted 2 days before my friend said it was too much cleaning up the poop

[@MagpieInGravesfield]

I’ve been watching so many of your videos lately, they’re so useful !! I’m planning on getting a cockatiel in the near future, I’m watching so many videos to be prepared and I really love everything you do, keep going !! :D

[@SosutKhalily]

you might wanna use a schedule when giving birds food. some birds get so spoiled that they eat 24 hours even when not hungry and as a result they poop too soon and all times. I have been told to remove my birds food for specific times to limit some birds from overeating. also, if your bird is so bored he would find only food to entertain even when not hungry. to limit this problem you should give him other activities to perform and other games to play and not making food everything to the bird.

[@parrotbirbqween672]

Mine too it pool on my head!!!

I enjoy watching your birds' body language when their vent is about to get busy!

[@mayhembeading3737]

I'm seriously watching this in the very real hope of potty training a chicken (or two). Will keep you posted.

Haha I tried to touch train a chicken not the smartest of ideas

[@claudettewatkins4237]

I really want a bird I don't indeed cleaning up after it but I am a little nervous since I live in an apartment an have 1 tween and a toddler that the mess could be too much this helped a lot knowing that I dont have to worry about poop everywhere if I train properly

[@user-cn4se7ui6j]

Lol that’s how I taught my dog except for actual talking 😂

Not certain about the points made but ,if anyone else is searching for parrot trainer try Pycanta Parrot Tips Protocol (Have a quick look on google cant remember the place now ) ? Ive heard some incredible things about it and my colleague got amazing results with it.

[@francisolivier4309]

good video marlene, jesey,, is so pretty. and you are so nice , like your shirt to xx

[@flomojo2u]

Great info! I figured this out by trial and error and initially it was tough not to react negatively when my lovebird would go on me, and he obviously didn’t know what to do if I got upset so I watched him and would set him down occasionally to see if he would go. Once he went I praised him and picked him up, and I would approximate the time when he was likely to need to go, setting him down and telling him to poop, then praising and picking him up once he went. It was hit or miss to start off, however he learned fairly quickly and so it’s been great since then. The biggest challenge is to try and do this when he’s on my shoulder since I can’t see when he goes and I get preoccupied and forget to set him down.

[@InnaVitamina777]

Thank you for the information. I wish you were around 18 years ago. I would have learned so much from you about my 18 year old mustache parrot named Mookie. He is bilingual and such a talker. I was shock when you said Picasso doesn't talk. I love love my Mookie. Everytime, I see Picasso, It's like seeing Mookie. Bless your Picasso. He is too cute...

People make fun if this vital isse... Shame on them...

[@micheleeddy129]

I have a Vinny named Lorenzo. Let's Vent - When Lorenzo did bird doo while playing with my husband, husband would say in a bird voice "mom had to poop", which was my clue to come clean up the bird doo. At the same time, I was working on training Lorenzo to fly to the swing perch over the kitchen sink to take care of business while out of the cage. The smart bird combined both efforts and started flying to the swing perch over the sink, doing his business and squawking 'mom, had to poop'. Not thrilled with my galah vocalizing, 'mom, had to poop' each time bird doo occurred, we change up the language... now it is 'vent mom vent'. Both husband and bird use this phrase to notify me of bird doo occurrences. While engaged out of his cage, the swing perch over the sink is always the favorite to retreat to for venting and singing 'vent mom vent', unless in direct play with my husband, wherever it occurs is 'fun' for both, as they each call out to me 'vent mom vent'. I come with the wipe and clean up the droppings, they 'giggle' and continue their play together, the rest of the time venting and squawking 'vent mom vent' takes place over the sink. @Marlene Mc'Cohen, if it was not for you, I would have never guessed birds could be potty trained. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge!

Great information! Just like potty training a child. Common sense, but I had to have someone let me know it's not that different than a child! Thank you for sharing this great information with us!

[@123rosebuds]

A practical video with very sensible teaching. Great!

[@gskibum]

I had a Halfmoon Conure for 26 years that pooped only 2-3 times per day. Potty training really wasn't even necessary with her. However the Blue Crown I have now must poo every 10 minutes. It's completely insane how much and how often this one poops!

[@Maraaha55]

enjoyed this thanks. this is pretty much exactly like house training a puppy. I should not really be surprised!

[@bobbybrown9505]

Great video! I am getting my first Sun Conure and this was something I was wondering about!! She comes home in about a month or so when she is completely weaned! So ecstatic!

[@givehimthemolkjosh2665]

I just posted a video on cockatiels, essentially the video was about pros vs cons and just common things with them. I'm linking this in the description because I don't know much about potty training myself and I knew you were the best person to explain ^^

[@isabeltheacegal3384]

If the birds can fly, or the cage is close enough, can they take themselves to potty or do you have to carry them every time? Asking because I want a budgie and these dudes poop every 15 minutes

[@O_O7z]

You have to clean up after budgies. Their poops are smaller so it's not a big deal. Just make sure to clean it up

[@bonniebabird]

I've watched so many of your videos and this question has been bugging me 'How do they not crap all over the house!??!' Thanks so much for clearing this up. The issue has prevented me from having any more birds, so maybe I can manage this training too!! namaste

[@orixxboy]

I felt attached last night, so I've been looking for my bird for ages, I finally found a great breeder here cos let's face it there's not many birds in Ireland, so I found a breeder laying started end of January I've searched for a rescue I offered to fly parrot rescue ppl to Ireland but all said I was two far away to be able to help.. And I've been hurt thinking young birds were home alone all day with no toys, it was upsetting and there was no birds it was an attempt at the shipping scam, not something I'd fall for as I've spoke to the best brid transport company in the world and he was prepared to help me get these rescues to Ireland... So excited I'd finally found a breeder for next season chick, and all I got was that's mean try rescue like it wasn't the first thing I tried, plus I live between Ireland and Bulgaria, I need a bird who can get used to long car trips so any birds I take care of will need papers to travel between the 2, I've a little farm there. But I just love that ppl assume that I didn't try that rirst.. So I did think I'd have to stick with the blue and gold and I wouldn't have minded but I've been offered a harlaquin cgick not even laid yet if this is my bird it will happen if the university has a better plan that wil happen first
