Haha hard work is an understatement. I have an ex breeder ( 15 years as a breeder) who is also a special needs and man oh man..although he is spoiled rotten, sometimes I sit back and wonder what I got myself into with him. But I am his forever home and he will never know what it's like to have his cage closed up, or to be outside in a breeding pen again.

@@blamekatie Thank you. He had a less than stellar life. When he was a hatchling he was "tossed" or fell out of his nesting box which severely broke his leg. It healed twisted so he walks like a "pimp" lol. He was at the breeding facility for over 15 years, but because he couldn't get anything chicks from him, he was eventually retired and sent to an actual Parrot rescue, where he sat for another four years. Parrot rescues are great however they are so overwhelmed with parrots and birds, that simple things such as toys and human contact is limited. So he sat in a noisy room full of cockatoos with no human contact and no toys. Those that were interested, would put the effort in to gain his trust, and then abandon him because he wasn't "pretty" and because he was a special need. So when I was told about him, it was very unexpected and drove almost 2 hours to go visit him. I sat with him for the entire day and just kinda hung out. I saw something in Nemo that other people didn't. I knew it was hard enough for normal birds to get adopted, but a special needs breeder? What chance did he honestly have? So I took the plunge. Twice a week for about one and a half months, I drove 2 hours there and home to go visit him. He's really a goofball, even though he won't let me touch him at all, but with so many people failing him, i can understand why its difficult to get his trust. I had to teach him how to play with toys and now his cage is full of them. His cage is never locked up. I fought for him by having in house inspections and post-screenings, because nobody else ever fought for him. Now he is happy, he has a huge cage in my bedroom where i spend most of my time doing college things. And he is never home alone, even if im not there. Because he has to have his wings clipped ( medical reasons) we take him to the park where he loves to watch the little kids play and talk to him, stretch himself in the sun..so yes..he definitely has a good life now.. even though I can pet or touch him much LOL.

Thank you for sharing this video. Jamieleigh, your calm, soft voice and demeanor and slow approach without pushing the issue is why the bird was more receptive to you. Dave, why did you leave your cap on? Your presence was intimidating and assertive, and the cap just intensified her fears. Hopefully he will not feed the bird the egg diet too often. It's not a good idea to feed egg and soft foods to a hormonal parrot, which can exacerbate hormonal surges. It's nice to know that the bird is given a chance for a quality of life.

Rio is a gorgeous full size female B&G with perfect feathering and long tail with no damage. She's very well taken care of and preens herself beautifully. Gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous! I went and read Rio's bio that you posted and her leg band should have a serial number on it, as all breeder's are required to band every bird born in their aviary in most States. These are also recorded and submitted to the local health department or State wildlife association that most States require be registered and pay a county tax, ($10) year, so they know how many wild bird's are being bred in captivity. This should give her age and breeder information. There's no way I would have believed she was 2 year's old as many B&G's under 3 still have baby bird mannerisms for the majority of their interactions with other's. I don't know why I'm even typing this since you've been doing this forever and know this stuff. The band on her leg is what made me think of it since my B&G was banded from her Florida breeder, all the birds were, and documented with the county even coming out and doing inspections to ensure the bird's were well cared for and the aviary was hygienic. This gentleman had several mated bird's listed as on the extinct list & would take in rescues for rehabilitation & worked with the Govt on maintaining population of exotic birds, especially one's that were listed as critical in nature. I'm sure most of the breeder's that do leg band's are also required to maintain records on their bird's.

I have a breeder male African grey who is 20 years of age, who was a breeder for 15 years and stuck at a sanctuary for almost 4 years before adopting him. And although he isn't cuddly, or allows us to touch him ( without screaming and growling and flopping around, never really bites) he really isn't aggressive at all and is the sweetest boy and I provide him such a good life. He never even knew how to play with toys until I showed him how, and now he gets a lot of toys, and a warm place to sleep and a lot of attention. When breeder birds do go to parrot rescues ( certified ones) such as the one i went through, there is a huge process involved to make sure the house is the right place for any bird. I went through in-home inspections, and two months of visitations twice a week to spend time with my Grey where i just sat with him and talked for hours. I even had to do post screenings with the parrot rescue to ensure he was being cared for.

After a few days we realized he was extremely hormonal with me, in particular. We've had him about six weeks now and while his behaviors have calmed down quite a bit, he's now more comfortable straying away from his cage and has started trying to nest under his cage, under our bed and has built nests out of our clothes on the ground. I feel bad for him and I feel like I can't spend time with my bird without triggering him.

Yeah, it can take years of work with dogs like that & even then you don't end up with a typical dog at the end. I've had one like that for the past 10 years and it's only the past few years that he's started to act more like a "normal" dog. It is a lot of work, I found a lot of techniques Bird Tricks use to grain trust & communicate with parrots translate very well to dogs, it's why I started watching them.

I think all animals, even humans, really crave interactions as equals. We may not realize it, and even have habits of pushing for inequality, but when we get it, we just crave more. I think she's a bit nervous about Dave's hat, but I didn't see him try to interact without it so can't be sure. She really just seems so happy to have someone understand her and speak her language. It's really incredible to watch both your interactions with these birds that have gone misunderstood for so long. = D Omg watching her eat the seasonal food with egg!!! That look! She's soooo into that. xD

I love the way birds smell too. Sometimes I just want to smoosh my nose in them and take deep breaths. People think I’m weird that way. But mmmm.

I liked that but I do do more than sniff. I Inhale their entire being. We should come up with a title for it before others. Sniffing is good but I just sniff. Hmmmm where to start

I've heard about hormonal tea for birds, but can't seem to find much reliable info on it anywhere. Anyone have any info to share? As in does it work, is it safe, does it help?
