[@hannahstevenson7228]

also for inexperienced bird owners (or visitors to bird houses), don't forget that if they don't trust that your hand is stable then they'll test it with their beak like Cody was a few times. I've seen a lot of people pull their hands away thinking it was a bite but in reality the poor bird was about the step up and was then confused! haha

[@MARLENEMCCOHEN]

Yeah that will happen a lot!!!

[@vultureboy1675]

ive never seen anywhere how to troubleshoot if your bird has stepped up onto your finger and then bites it while perching there. they used to be just putting their beak on my finger but it had turned into a bite what do you do in that situation

[@xolpix8683]

Hannah Stevenson thank you I am getting a bird this December and this was helpful to know

[@ghostbovods2188]

That’s really confusing with my bird she mostly bites but sometimes I let her and she steps or she bites

[@fallenstar4908]

Hannah Stevenson yeah but mine opens my mouth when I get close

[@outlinegm]

Haha when Picasso's on your shoulder he doesn't take his eyes off you. I can imagine in his little birdy head he's saying to you "Are you thinking about me? I know you are. Just look at how beautiful I am. I knew there was a reason you chose me. It's because I'm gorgeous. Go on, give me a kiss and tell me how great I am. I know you can't resist this hunk of love."

[@MARLENEMCCOHEN]

+Outlinegm well all of that is most likely true💖💜🐦

[@outlinegm]

He's a little stunner. I'd never heard of his breed until I saw your videos but they seem to be so chilled.

[@MARLENEMCCOHEN]

That is exactly what I would like to think he is thinking...lol

[@madisonbyrne5851]

When Picasso gets put in the cage Picasso- what is this?! Why am I back in here? Bring me out human! I command you!

[@RekhaKumari]

I\'m not sure but ,if anyone else is searching for how to teach your parrot to talk try Hopandar Amazing Parrot Helper ( search on google ) ? Ive heard some interesting things about it and my mate got amazing success with it.

[@sadelewis5161]

when i rescued ronald he hadnt been out of the cage or touched in 14 years so when i tried to put my hand in he would flip out, so each day i just sat beside his cage with my hand inside the cage it took about 2 weeks but one day he just stepped on ❤ and i managed to bring him out of his cage and after that he changed and became tame and loving really quick, i got flapped at abd bite a few times befor the but perservering was the best thing ive ever done, he has a lovely free happy life now with lots of love and he brings me so much joy, so to anyone who thinks this is never going to happen my parrot hates me just be patient they will come around, and its so worth it xx

[@MARLENEMCCOHEN]

One rule for having a bird... ALWAYS TURN OFF THE FAN

[@erensarlar4096]

Dhashini Pira i feel like there is a story behind this

[@RWTHRLL]

Dhashini Pira it’s my number one pet peeve! When my mum comes in and turns the fans on I get so pissed because it’s the birds time out and she just put them in danger

[@Illogzt]

I'm so thankful, that people like you exist. I believe so many parrots have now a better life because their owners watched your videos before adopting them or giving them up for adoption. Thank, thank, thank you Soooo much! I'm always happy to see experienced parrot owners who give helpful advice and people who build big costume avaries for not much money.

[@ericastier1646]

I think Picasso has realized that your behavior talking to a camera is weird and he is trying to communicate with you to see if you are allright. You said a million words.

[@dovidzeiler596]

It was a day later after giving my bird lots of attention, there was SO much progression. THANK YOU!

[@faithlauren2132]

I just got my African grey a few days ago! He hasn't been handled in about six years, he came out of his cage two days ago (we got him Monday) and will take treats from my hand! Yesterday he let me pet his head, he still doesn't want to step up if I offer my hand but he doesn't mind it being near him!

[@roboman34]

Just read or / on your mobile phone , and let the bird come to you to see wot you doing , and have a treat / in secret to show the bird to have on your shoulder .....good luck .

[@glowarcup6287]

Faith Lauren so Faith where are you at now 9 months later with your grey. We just got one on Fri Sat he came out of his cage and will let us hand feed him. But no touch. He is singing and making his noises. Last night when he went inside to eat we closed the door. He ate then put his head down and let us pet his head. It was sooo rewarding. Can't wait for more engagement . So exciting. Like yours Jake was neglected after his daddy died 2 years ago.

[@KimberleyRauchelle]

You are excellent you speak well you don't speak too fast you are clear I like your style and you are great not to have any music in the background thank you I've just got two new birds and I'm very interested in your style thank you

[@PT84]

My mom is a bird whisperer. She rescues birds and eventually they all stand on her shoulder and talk to her.

[@MARLENEMCCOHEN]

I love your mom!!!

[@keeks9429]

i love how you explain things, ive watched a lot of videos like this, but yours is by far the clearest and most understandable, you always do such a great job

[@bluscraps]

we call their 'cage' a ONE BIRDROOM CONDO. just sounds better. i dont ever want my grey to feel 'caged'. thanks for the great advice. just subscribed.

[@cookiechaina1238]

Today I brought home a baby budgie from a breeder. His name is Akoni and he is so beautiful. Akoni is about a month and a half or so old, and has been hand fed. If you’re considering a breeder and a pet store, the breeder is definitely worth it. Within 2 hours of Akoni being in his cage, he let me pet him. He doesn’t move much haha, but that is expected. I’m super excited for him to get used to his environment and be chirping all day. When it comes to his training, I do have experience as a dog trainer, which I’m glad about because my patients is pretty strong with things like this. I’m really excited to see where these next few years go with Akoni.

[@mackenziezeitlin7497]

Thank you so much. For educating all of us. I am getting a bird because of you. Thanks so much

[@Etherealswxn]

Thank you for this video!!! I'm getting a new bird in 2 weeks and I want to be as prepared as possible

[@lailas3301]

Kclaempress Did you end up getting your bird? What types is it?

[@MARLENEMCCOHEN]

You're welcome!! Keep us updated!!

[@Will0w_0n.F0urs]

Teach them free flight. So you can take them out and fly them. Get a bird harness first then gradually teach it to come back. This is the best bird owner to me not someone who keeps them in the house all day like this chic in this video.

[@parrotchop8472]

@@Will0w_0n.F0urs seriously??? Not everyone can take there birds to be free flighted. Mine arnt because there are too many bigger birds in my area. Free flying is amazing and whoever does it is inspiring but its not always possible.

[@elisabethschubart6614]

Lol, I'm showing my bird this video.

[@GamesAndShips]

I don't have a birdy friend yet, I hope to have a cockatiel when I have the space for one, but I have to say that I have loved watching your videos. Your love and passion for birds is so heart warming, I can tell you love them with everything you have and it is so sweet. I hope to learn everything I can so one day I can be a good bird owner. :D

[@ladyguerlain3707]

Isn’t she stunning?? 🤩

[@tessabentley1863]

I am getting my Quaker Parrot tomorrow and I thoroughly enjoyed your video - its given me some confidence to be the best parrot owner I can possibly be!

[@lorithorpe5332]

Awesome job on this one Marlene!❤ I especially love the "hands on" approach videos like this one. I'm sure many of your followers would agree that this type of video aids in their learning far better than one where a person just sits or stands in front of a camera and only TALKS through the steps. in a private message you mentioned this video might not apply to me since Santina and I are past these stages. However true this might be, think of Lisa and her bird Simba. This video is also great for retraining from the start if a situation like Lisa's comes up. I 💘 that you really truly listen to us on the parrot station and engagednotcaged then bring our questions, fears and concerns over to KZbin and allow us the joy of seeing you and your beautiful birds while answering all of our questions. AWESOME❤AWESOME❤AWESOME!!!! P.S. check your private message for a picture of what I looked like after waiting up til 3a.m. for this video. Hahaha

[@tsaiian3040]

[@MARLENEMCCOHEN]

Hello Tsai Ian Thank you so much for watching!! It really means a lot!!

[@BarbaraDelGiudice]

Hi, Marlene, Picasso is so adorable! I'm so sorry he flew away. I hope he comes home some day or that someone that has him realizes he is your bird and you are reunited!!! After getting to know you so much more and you birds, I feel so sad but happy, when watching you with Picasso!!! Love, big hugs, prayers. Barb, Baby, Beenie :)

[@cheese4200]

It’s so sad! I miss Picasso so much! He’s such a little angel.

[@shannonlee290]

Beautiful video !! Thank you for looking out for the feathered friends !!

[@fatimaj8687]

Very helpful I love it thx

[@evanlipps1372]

I feel like this is an informational channel for someone who wants a bigger bird like an African gray, a mustache parakeet, or a bigger bird like that. Now that doesn't mean that this isn't the only channel but Marlene is one of the many channels who knows a lot about birds. Edit: I am thinking about getting a bird so a channel like this or other channels that have good info on what bird is best for someone

[@GlamBeautyTV]

I just brought home my rescue Severe Macaw. This is super useful! Thank you so much!

[@sethsingletary5539]

Parrot whispers realy helped me choose a new bird

[@Danijones4571]

I don't think birds are for everyone, as a bird person myself I know what's involved in having a bird and how difficult it can be sometimes. Please be careful when considering a bird as a pet.

[@fallenstar4908]

Rio Hemmings thank you. I got a bird and even if it was a mistake I will give him a better life than sending him down a hell hole

[@Digitalforward]

[@jomurray7400]

Great advise Marlene. THANK YOU💞

[@zsuzsmoux6109]

This was so helpful! I'm getting a bird soon and this answered so many questions. Thank you so much!!

[@Dunkleosteus3691]

My budgie, Dollar, now only likes the improvised perch I made for her which puts her just above and to the left of my head when I'm sitting at my desk, working on my computer. Otherwise, she (its a female) tends to just find some place like under a chair or table where she apparently "thinks" she's hiding. When she's on her perch and wants my attention, she now comes down and gets onto my hand even when I'm typing on the keyboard. If I don't respond, she begins pulling the hairs on the back of my hand until I do what she wants (usually, she wants to ride my hand to the TV so she can watch it). It's taken 60 days to get this far, for weeks I thought she might never adapt to living outside the cage at the pet shop.

[@MARLENEMCCOHEN]

It is so great that you came that far!!

[@Dunkleosteus3691]

Thanks Marlene. We both know this is a two way learning process and both the person and the bird have to learn from each other. It will be interesting to see how Dollar handles flying after she molts. I think she's going to be a bit longer before that happens. I'm sorry that the pet shop clips the wings of their birds, I definitely prefer birds that can fly around the apartment. Until then, she's learning to ask for a ride and even walks to near where she wants to be lifted up and starts chirping. Tonight she even walked by herself to the bedroom because I was "late" taking her to her cage for night time. :-)

[@stefanielostshadowhunteral2420]

Watching this in advance for taking my first large parrot home in a few weeks - so excited !

[@kiddkat92]

Just what I needed. I find myself getting frustrated at times with our progress. I always make time to take my amazon out on a daily basis. She's not comfortable with hands so I have a hard time getting her out with my arm/hand as a perch, but she loves to come out & hang on top of her cage. Rare & a BIG treat for me when Memín decides to step down or fly off her cage. That's the only time she trusts me enough to offer her my hand as a perch. I'm so glad I found your channel! & love that you point out different types of engagement. Although I find myself wanting more in response/bonding, I know it's important to give it time. Glad I found this oldie but goodie Vid 💚💛🐦💚💛

[@Skypuppy490]

I recently rescued a cockatiel 2 days ago. Clearly never been touched, no information on the gender or age. I'm excited to build a relationship with a much needed rescue bird

[@MARLENEMCCOHEN]

Awesome!! let us know how it turns out!!

[@RWTHRLL]

Riley Jay hey as an owner of 4 cockatiels, all of which were rescued from different homes. I would definitely recommend just sitting near them and giving them some space, then try placing your finger on their chest until they hop on, if they try running maybe try putting food in your hand

[@dudemorris7769]

Thankfully my 14 year old bird who was never out of his cage, ever, before coming to live with me, has never bit me. He gives me kisses & within 3 weeks had picked up my voice and always loves giving kisses & still hates stepping up & being in his cage. From the time I get home, regardless of what time unless it’s dark, his cage is unlocked & he’s interacted with & has become a cherished family member in less than 6 months.

[@jesperjee]

Wow, Cody is a really beautiful bird!

[@ThisBeautifulRomance]

What type of bird would you recommend for someone who's never had one but wants a good devoted relationship with one?

[@oliviahernandez6]

ThisBeautifulRomance Stay away from Macaws, Cockatoos, Amazon's and similar. They live to be at least 80 years old, are loud, and definitely not for beginners. Pet stores say that Budgies live 5-7 years, but with the right environment they can live 15-20. You can get a budgie for 20 dollars at your local pet store, but they won't always bond with you. I have a Myers Parrot, and while they can be argumentative, they're relatively quiet and easy going. (Most of the time). And whenever possible, #adoptdontshop.

[@gimja686]

ThisBeautifulRomance i would recommend a conure they are usaully fun and playful or cuddly. or even a parakeet, a lot of people think they cant have a good relationship or bond with it like a iigger bird but they are both wonderful

[@lukelowry4853]

Gimja Animates is an Indian ringneck ok??????

[@Ms.Microcurie]

From what I've read, no to the Indian ring neck. I have intermediate experience, and I'd say either a conure or Senegal would be okay. My conures are okay behavior-wise for the most part. One has never bit me out of anger or fear while the other is cage aggressive and moody. They are both noisy and destructive. One is needy while the other is pretty independent. I've had them going on 6 years now and love them both but this video is spot on, so think hard on your decision to get one.

[@DivyaSharma-fb1go]

ThisBeautifulRomance i would say start off with a parakeet

[@ashachavan8048]

When I get my bird out he just fly to the top of my study table and just sit..... Never play or move just sitting... 😔😔

How do I get my conure to like/dance to music

[@MARLENEMCCOHEN]

Dance with him, you will find out pretty fast, some birds, like to dance some don't. George my African Grey wasn't a dancer he was a singer, Picasso doesn't dance either but all my other birds do.

[@dianacruz3831]

DoctorSockpuppetFilms I barely got a dusky conure and all it does is dance to music 🎼 u should try putting music that has rhythm

[@masamohammed6373]

Marelene I would appreciate it if you answered me how to get untamed bird back into his cage?!

[@LILAC2CARB]

Masa Mohammed hi I'm not sure if you got your answer but what I use to do for my bird was get a perch (tree branch) and get him on it and just put my hand or a book above his head this helps prevent him from flying off the perch you have them on I also worked a technique where I played with the toys in my birds cage or his food in his food bowl he would get into the cage by himself. But when they figure out that you're using this as a tactic they stop doing it lol!

[@masamohammed6373]

+Lilac Carb am suffering with taming my cockatiel once he is out of the cage there is no power on earth that can put him back in😂😂he flies everywhere and I run after him until I catch him last time I spent about 45 min trying to get him in the cage nothing seem to work with him

Great insights Marlene! Thanks so much for your advocacy for exotic birds....they are so amazing, intelligent, aware, and devoted! Who knew? But we need to keep trying to ensure they all have the best lives possible since they are unable to fulfill their lives in the wild and naturally...interact with your parrots!!

Is it right that an African Grey only has 1 friend that changes his cage, feeds them, and has time with them?

[@ammarmallah9554]

Jade the horned bird if you mean bonding then its different with each one because my uncle had one that would bite and wouldnt accept treats from anyone except my uncle but my friend who has one is okay with being petted and touched and given treats

Ma'am I have a female alexandrine parrot about 5-6 months old. I love her so much, but she bites very badly my hand or finger or whatever I take near her. She's with me for about a month but is still the same. Everyday she bleeds my hand with her bite. What should I do? And one more thing, when I give her anything to eat, even a small gram, she takes it very peacefully without attacking my fingers! I really don't understand why is she so much afraid of me! 😥😢

Are mirror s bad or are they ok

[@garbanzo12]

If you put a mirror in your bird's cage it will most likely get frustrated because his reflection doesn't interact with him then he will become aggressive.

[@troyrichardson2635]

Love your videos, personally I've probably watched and rewatched too many of them. In this case, I brought home a new bird and wanted to watch this video again because it's 100% good advise. PLEASE keep doing what you do, I just wanted to extend some gratitude for the excellent parront tips. You are awesome, also I hope Picasso is okay, it was a little tear jerking to see Picasso again, such a sweet bird, I really hope he's doing okay. Much love!!

Very helpful, thank you. It is so difficult to know when you are a first time bird owner what to change and when you are pushing too hard for change and too lenient and creating bad habits. Very clear advice and explanation of why to do it. Thank you!

We just rescued 2 10 year old+ parrots (an African grey and Galah Cockatoo) and both of them have spent way too much time caged. They are very nervous and bitey and this is the first time ive had an older bird. This video and others of yours have helped tremendously!!! Keep up the great work!

Wonderful video. Such an important topic to have all birds to be able to come out of their cage every day.

Great information! IMO you should teach even more! I have taken classes at Parrot University, and I have learned more with this one video! Thank you for taking the time to help all of us be better Parrot Parents :-)
