He's going to be such a star.. i can tell

[@gabbyaboutbooks]

Love this for you guys. My grandparents had a parrot that lived 60 years! Such fond memories of Pancho, the Spanish talking parrot!

[@notsosilentmajority1]

I just found you r channel and hearing about your in-depth research reminded me of what I'm doing now. I am in the early research stage regarding parrots/birds and I have really spent an insane amount of time doing the research. As you said, these birds live a long time and I don't want to make a mistake or have any regrets. I have narrowed down my choices to a few different birds and Pionus is definitely one of them. I won't lie, the fact that they aren't usually good talkers is one thing that's a small negative, but usually birds that aren't the most talkative are also quieter overall most of the time. I know that even species' that are known for talking, are still no guarantee to talk for anyone but I still am hanging onto that hope for now. Regardless of which species, it seems that males are usually the better talkers so you have a fair chance of your bird talking a bit. You have done a great job with your boy and I'm looking forward to catching up on your videos. Congratulations. Liked and subbed. 🦜👍

Awww, welcome Yuki to the family!! His color is so pretty. 😊 Would to see how your reno goes! 🎉

[@pippa_and_petrie]

Congratulations on your new life with Yuki 🧡🧡🦜🦜. He is precious and you are doing so well being bird parents 🥰🥰❤️

[@ndi2301]

Thanks for this video! Everything from your research, reasons for buying him, and actually being able to find one feel like the same experiences I had. I found and bought a 5 month old white cap named Jiminy, about 1 month ago. Pretty amazing how consistent their behaviors are. Yuki sounds just like mine. They're wonderful birds. Wishing you all the best!

[@TayAndBrock]

That's amazing! Ours had a sibling. Did you get Jiminy in Southern california by chance?

[@davidsavage6227]

What a fantastic species. Enjoyed your video. My baby pionus taught himself potty. I just had to tell him how awesome he is and that was it. One thing I have noticed is that my Pionus does not like loud noises. If so turn on the TV or have a conversation on the phone, he will let me know. What a little gem:

[@TayAndBrock]

Ours also doesn't like loud noises!

Very cool!!

[@TayAndBrock]

Thank you!!

[@irismunoz6449]

I am extremely happy that slowly but surely I see more and more people doing pionus videos...I can't wait to own one soon!! There's not enough videos on them 😢

[@TayAndBrock]

i agree! we had a hard time getting info about them

[@RoxaneJ14]

YES, we want all the reno content !! I'm not too into birds but my best friend is so I've collected some basic knowledge over the years of interacting/pet sitting hers. Can't wait to see how you're gonna develop this relaitonship as you have with the girls. I didn't understand, are his feathers cut at the moment ?

[@BuildYourTribePodcast]

His "flight" feathers are cut, currently. We wanted him to be fully fledged (meaning that they allow his feathers to grow out when he's born and never cut them), but the breeder cut them for his safety. We will now allow him to grow them back out, and once he does, he'll be able to fly!

[@mustafasheikh9426]

Can you mention which breeders you were able to find in the US because I am looking for a pianos parrot, either a bronze winged, Maximillian, or dusky. Than you!

[@TerryfromFL]

I had a Whitecap, named Radio. I hadn’t been to get her wings normal wings clipped and the wind caught her and took her. By the time I found her it was too late. Now, I only have a male Eclectus. He is such a beaut💚💚💚💚

[@lolicortes1072]

Hola.estoy en España. Barcelona Es estupendo este lorito. Son muy listos Yo tengo uno de dos años, os quería hacer una pregunta , en la cabeza blanca tiene algunas plumas verdes todavía,, es normal?? . Cuando tendrá toda la cabeza blanca?? Muchas gracias ❤

[@BuildYourTribePodcast]

sí, es normal que tengan algo de verde en la cabeza durante los primeros años. Una vez que alcanzan la madurez, su cabeza debe ser completamente blanca, pero cada ave es diferente.

[@dl7596]

I would have liked to see your night time cage and shower stand and known what brand and size of pellets you are feeding.

[@brockjohnson3575]

Yuki’s nighttime cage is a much smaller cage (about 2.5 feet tall x 1.5 feet wide x 1.5 feet deep). The shower stand has 3 large suction cups and a rougher, nail-file-like perch so that it’s easier for him to grip. His pellets are medium size, we used to give him large pellets (because he prefers them) but he would waste a lot more by breaking them in half and dropping them lol Hope that helps!

[@dl7596]

@@brockjohnson3575 Thank you for the reply. When I referred this video to my daughter, she said she'd already watched it. Also, she envied your large open space for the parrot playground. Her sweet baby WCPionus will be weaned and going home with her in a couple of weeks.

[@aidewimber6455]

Thank you for sharing your video.. I Love Pionus parrots but I live in Vancouver, BC.. Canada and can't seem to find one here. can you send me the email address of the person you bought Yuki from? Greetings!

[@TayAndBrock]

We got him from a local bird store. sorry!

[@laurabirtch2828]

He is so cute. I have to know if you got him from Omar’s?

[@TayAndBrock]

Yup! (:
