Just so everyone knows, baby macaws are some of the easiest birds to train for free flight. Even so, there is a LOT that can go wrong if you don't know what you're doing. I hope everyone takes this as a snapshot of one person's process for training his birds rather than a "how to" guide. Please don't attempt this yourself without an experienced mentor or there is a very good chance you will lose your bird.
@TheRyano4ever6 жыл бұрын
I think its also worth noting that its probably worth building up slowly rather than just going straight from aviary to outside, test your bird in a hundred different places getting progressively more open if possible before attempting to do free-flight, and also establish the recall until its perfect in every situation and play around with different distances angles, corners, obstacles, other people and even other animals if its safe, before training with your bird always check its level of motivation to respond to your calls, if the bird is acting disinterested or isn't reacting at all to your calls call it a day and return the bird to its routine and try again when it is more interested or hungry... Its as much about learning to read a birds behaviour as it is about training it to do something, you cannot train a bird that is not motivated

it's definitely possible, however, its riskier than flying a bigger bird like an amazon or a cockatoo, or better yet a macaw. Try looking into harness training your bird. Since they are smaller, they don't need as much exercise as larger birds(it's science, look it up!). The harness still lets them go outside, fly around a little bit, and explore.

@simplesimp96642 жыл бұрын
Yes it’s possible however, it’s gonna take much longer, not just because they are so used to not flying outdoors that they will be very uncomfortable with it and scared. They will also need a slower pace so their body can be strong enough. Free flight birds require a lot of strength not to be stolen by the wind and to be able to do more than a few seconds of flight. I’d estimate over a year of training. But that also depends on the bird as it’s own being. Birds can be fast or slow to the idea but it depends more on your birds personality more than the breed sometimes.

@chadley252 жыл бұрын
One thing to keep in mind is that just because WE call it a "cage" doesn't mean a bird views it or thinks of it that way. To them, it's a home, a sanctuary -- not a prison. My Amazon parrot routinely flies very willingly back to her cage when she's loose in the house (which is often). Just as you're happy to return home after being out "in the wild," a bird feels quite similarly about returning to THEIR home. (Of course, this presumes it's a sufficiently sized cage for the species and that the bird actually is allowed to be outside of the cage regularly!)

You can, but it’s gonna take a year or more and will be extremely dangerous because of their size crows and most birds will attack them.
