We remain responsible forever of what we have tame. dont forget it!!
dont buy bird, ADOPT!
Kiwi learned very well how to bring me back all her toys in my hand.
Kiwi me rapporte tout ses anneaux dans ma main ;)
first find a good treat that he likes.
I use millet or budgee seeds, since she having pellet as her daily food.
And then, there is several steps the bird should master to get to there.
1- Click when she touch/take the ring
2- drop the ring in my hand (I put my hand under)
3- put the ring in my hand
4- fetch the ring to put it in my hand
5- fetch any object to put in my hand
Do small sceance of training (~10 min) once a day (each step took me around 2-3 days to learn)
Bird have excellent memory, you dont need to practice everyday, he will remembber each step learned very well.
Do positive training, help the bird to have as many "successes" as possible. ,Reward each little increment along the way. It's much better to guide him to the right response than to have to correct the bird for a wrong one. If the bird does not do something right, try it again another way so that the bird can be rewarded for the correct moves. Never be negative (say NO) if the bird get stressed or distracted. Training teaches a bird discipline, and as you spend more time observing your bird and its reactions, you will understand it better, and the bird will at the same time also learn better how to respond to you and what pleases you.
