what to do with bird bluffing?

[@janleekelley1545]

Pet only the head and neck. Petting anywhere else will create a hormonal bird.

[@poms_beats]

Yes! Thanks for saying this lol

[@kimholowell9245]

My bird is the exact same color and he won’t let me pet him. This is helpful!! Wow!! How old was he in the video?

[@birdclawslife4027]

Claw was only 5 months old in this video. Now he is 3 months to become 2 years old. Is yours boy or girl?

[@kimholowell9245]

@@birdclawslife4027 Thanks so much for getting back. Mine is 5 months old!! ☺️

[@kimholowell9245]

I’m not sure if a boy or girl!!

[@birdclawslife4027]

I am not 100%sure about Claw a boy or girl yet. I bought Vicky from different breeder with DNA test to be female . Now Vicky is over 2 years old with clear ring at the neck , proving to be a boy. I just have to wait and see until Claw over 2 years old . You can see my other videos to see the difference and their change when growing up .

[@birdclawslife4027]

Wow, that is similar age when Claw came to be with us. Bluffing is something we went through and still going through occasionally.

[@kenyajimenez891]

This is almost the exact process I did with my baby indian ringnecks now there cuddly beast there addicted to them

[@arsheen1649]

what'd you do omg my indian ringneck is so aggressive it doesn't let me touch it at all costs

[@kenyajimenez891]

And try target training u can look it up online for parrots it works wonders for aggressive birds

[@birdclawslife4027]

How old is yours ? I found that if you have him or her young like months old easier to train . Claw is no longer so aggressive ant more . However our new one Bubble still not allowing us to be close to him . We had him when he was almost 2. Maybe more time can solve it.

[@whyflyingturtles519]

This is exactly how my bird is acting now and it’s been going on for 3 months ever since I got him. I’ll have to try this when I get home but thank you much this video really helped me get an idea about what to do about this bluffing stage since he’s been drawing blood. He’s the same color and was about 5 months when we got him, now he’s 7 months and the behavior continues. If u had anymore advice that would be really helpful! Thank you!

[@birdclawslife4027]

Glad to hear that this video helped you ! 5 month old is a good time to start . When we had Claw he was 4 months old. I figure it out that patience and more time with each other to build the trust are the keys . Try as much as hand feeding as you can .

[@abhilashamaheshwari8439]

Hi..My ringneck is 1.5 years old and he does this..when I try to touch his head or feathers..Do u think at this age I can train him for this?

[@birdclawslife4027]

@@abhilashamaheshwari8439 Yes you still can train him at this age,but it will be harder than from younger age. It needs lots of patience and hand feeding.

[@birdclawslife4027]

@abhilashamaheshwari8439 yes you can still train him . It will take long time .

Is it weird that I'm sitting here preening the new feather sheaths off of my severely cross beaked Americana hen watching this?

[@mikalmos369]

I have full confidence in my ability with all kinds of birds, but I have to admit I'm not sure my patients could handle the whole Bluff stage with a ringneck not knowing how long it's going to go on even though they seem to be one of the most personable and charismatic birds out there once you get past that part. I've known people that said it went on for just a couple of months and others that said it went on for a year

[@birdclawslife4027]

It goes on for years . Now it has been 5 years Claw being with us . Still a bit bluff but much better and I can even hold him and Pat him now .

[@ingela_injeela]

Nice progress. Patience pays off. (But why the annoying music?)

[@anupmasrivastav3742]

He is so small and so cute...

[@birdclawslife4027]

Yes he was , now he is a big boy

[@H34RTS4BRI]

Hi i just wanted to tell u that..u shouldn't pet in the middle of the bird it can cause them confusion they might think that ur mating with it since that's where they normally yk for further information search google:) so pls don't pet in between

[@WormHome]

It’s ok with baby birds, they haven’t reached sexual maturity and therefore don’t perceive it that way.

[@hanielmekawicollections7742]

[@birdclawslife4027]

That is the very right way to get along with your birds. Vicky now has been with us for 3months. She spent her last two years in the small cage . Now she will come to have dinner with us with distance 10cm. That is quite big progress. Building trust does take time.

[@nebraskacovington3615]

@@marilyn4850 actually got worse . She got used to me not trying to pick her up and giving her space. Her door was always open so she took to attacking me and anyone that entered the living room. We sought a vet and he said she was too wild to be worked with and was miserable. She went to a person with a huge aviary where the birds are all "wild"

I was going to buy one, how often do they go through this?

[@birdclawslife4027]

I had three Ringneck so far. Claw did this and after our patient hand feeding now it is much better but still does from time to time, especially if we do an unexpected touch him . Vicky and Bubble not have this issue .

This shows how much a bluffing bird needs something to chew and bite. Wood would be a better choice.
