Great video as always, very helpful How about another DIY (kinda...) on what bird-safe materials to use for making bird toys/perches at home

[@obligatorywhiteboardcat]

The birds were probably so confused 😂

Scout Le Wolf - Newt: doing every trick he knows trying to get that treat!

[@PatchworkDragon]

Two questions: 1. How do I differentiate who the "click" is for? If everyone knows that it means a treat is coming, I'm going to have to hand out a round of treats with every click. I have two dogs and two birds, so how do I work with only one at a time? 2. I have a Quaker that can and will mimic almost anything. In your experience, is he going to start clicking to demand treats? Or just randomly, thereby confusing everyone else?

[@highpointdogtraining]

Katy Highwind To answer question 1, a common practice is to either only use the clicker when you are working with one animal at a time, so only train with the other animals out of the room, or to get a few different clickers that sound slightly different (like from different brands) and have each individual have its own clicker

[@rosiegirl2485]

I am sorry...I giggled when reading your comment...its funny that your quacker mimicks the clicker for treats! I guess we would do the same thing if we were birds!

[@mollymcbride1942]

Again, a good book to clarify everything on clicker training is Reaching the Animal Mind by Karen Pryor, worked wonders for the horses

Your beautiful and a talented bird trainer. Thank you for your very clear precise instruction videos.

[@erhanalankus]

It was nice watching the birds interact with you :)

[@averiegracebenson4782]

I just found your channel! I'm going to be getting my very first bird, a blue parrotlet in a few days and wanted to be prepared. I'm very glad I found it and your videos are incredibly helpful. Thank you!

[@marishasveganworld2240]

Yay! Amazing video! I love your training videos! We need more people like you to give these fluffy creatures the happy life they deserve! 💚💚💚

[@mariannerivard3792]

I enjoyed your video on clickers. I really love your walls.

Loved this video. I thought it was just me nit being able to push the clicker correctly. Mine is difficult and loud!

[@elliekennedyy]

i know you care about birds and i really like your channel!!! i was wondering if you could make a video about jacob feder (i think that’s his name anyway) I’m 90% sure he abuses animals and stages “rescues” for views and i haven’t seen any videos on it!! he did this with two lovebirds which i am pretty sure he killed (or at least led them to their death) thanks!! i am going to comment this on as many bird channels because it makes me really upset!

[@carysspicer1438]

My parrotlet has only been living with us for two days. She’s very active and chats lots. She won’t come to our hand very quickly but once we get her out she’s very comfortable. My question is she’s only two months old so is she too young to start clicker training her? If she’s ok to get started I’ll wait in till she’s a bit more used to living in our house. Thanks!

[@heatherheath9980]

I’m in love with your shirt

[@ֆքǟռ-m5g]

Thank you 🥰🌹🕊

[@FeatherBeautiful]

This is so weird. KZbin is not making me see your videos. I oddly came across it and was surprised you started posting again 😅 I'll definitely have the bell notification on! That being said, the video is great as always! I don't use clickers but I guess i'll give it a try! Some people seem to find a lot of success with it :)

[@tt-co9ut]

My sun conure Scooby is 3 years old, can I start clicker training him? He is hand tame and very cuddly. He is fully flighted and flies to me on cue.

[@konstantinosparaskevopoulo1490]

You are amazing

[@echob00mer]

Hi, this is unrelated to training clickers, but I was wondering: how do you feel about keeping a single lovebird as opposed to a pair? Is it cruel to leave one alone when (if 😬) I go to work 30-40 hours a week, or would it be okay if I set it up properly?

[@senboc]

How often do they poop? And is there a way to train them to go in their cage kinda like a litter box?

[@kalynnkallweit7940]

yes, you can train a bird to poop in a specific place.. but it requires a lot of patience, close observation, and timing. you time how long between your birds poops, and repeatedly put them wherever you want them to be when they poop.. then, when they popp in the appropriate place you reward them. repeat.. over and over and over ..and over.. and over...... and over...

[@kalynnkallweit7940]

how often they poop depends on what kind of bird you have really. my budgies poop about every 10-15 minutes. larger birds poop less often, but ya know.. larger..

[@senboc]

@@kalynnkallweit7940 ohhh so sorta like a dog but more frequent

[@TheSasukefang]

@@senboc more similar to a hamster

[@angelinabotto3908]

great video! i am taking home an indian ringneck on friday and was wondering where you got the clickers?

[@scoopdoodlepop89]

Hi @flocktalk, I have a question kind of unrelated to the video but I’m just wondering...for a regular diet I know I should not give seed but I also feel like giving them vegetables 24/7nis wrong😂😅 so I’m just wondering what you give your guys as a regular diet? I hear millet but I’m just not sure. Thank you so much and I really enjoy your videos👌👍

[@FlockTalk]

A well balanced pellet! I recommend TOPs, caitec oven fresh bites, and golden feast golden obles (the ingredients are solid but I’ve never been able to get a bird to eat them so I’m conflicted on that stance). More easily available brands I’d suggest would be Roudybush or Harrison’s.

[@paulabergfort6586]

How did you teach your Bird top Shake no?

[@bibipassali3157]

Can you help me pls????? My bird Kiwi doesn’t pay attention when I try to tame her what can I do ??????

[@gamehunter83]

Do a budgie and a parrotlet live in the same cage? Thanks from Turkey.

[@THEE.apples]

Nope

[@skiangel3962]

I use Snapple Caps!!!

[@stevealvear7052]

Hello excellent videos , quick question what’s the first thing that one should do after bringing a parrolet home ? Some videos I’ve looked at say leave them in the cage for a week others say to get them out right away and start traing. You have great videos looking forward to some advice thanks !

[@bibipassali2208]

I have i problem with my bird Rio he doesn't pay attention to me when I tame him ,when I call him and when i talk to him what can I do ??

[@inu-vu]

love your vids!! thank you for uploading :)))

[@cookienoodles]

Does all this tricks work with agapornis?

[@tahminanargis9637]

Can u make a video about how to train/tame a very aggressive lovebird?(i have a very aggressive peach faced lovebird that bites me alot)

[@rosenita9300]

so cool👍👍👍👍

[@toblerone8797]

I have Tourette’s syndrome and already make a lot of different noises including clicking noises, would this confuse my birds while training them with a clicker?

[@FlockTalk]

Not necessarily, they’re smart enough to notice different tones and understand the situation. Using words or cues that signify when you start training (let’s go!, direct to perch) and end the session (all done! Provide a toy or move to different location) could also help clarify that communication. The more reinforcement history they have with the clicker the easier it will be for them to differentiate between you and the clicker. If they never get a reinforcer for sounds you make and exclusively get rewards for sounds the clicker makes they’ll stop responding to the sounds you make, only focusing on the clicker. If you do decide to use a clicker and are finding some communication problems you can always try different bridge devices and find what works best for you! A softer whistle, foot tapping on the floor, a chipper “good!” Or “yes!” Can all function just as well so long as the sounds/tones/ volumes are consistent

[@quaternion4565]

Why not use an app to make clicking sound

[@starletd6819]

Because you want to be able to have it in your hand and click as soon as they do the behavior and with a phone, it may be more inconvenient and have more of a delay in between

[@amiraligh6493]

you should try guitar you hand will give u an advantage

[@Miidha]

Nice video, again!💛 No clicker question How do you learn your bird to stay off your earrings, piercing and necklace? I already lost an earring and broke 1 silver necklace Greetings from Belgium, europe

[@sir.periwinkleton262]

The brand is Coastal Train Right! searching that should have it pop up!

[@MuhammadKhan-te3ed]

Can I do make a clicker for my bird at home because I cant go to the pet shop and my parents wont allow me to order à clicker for my bird.
