Thanks, you too! 💕
Anny np 😄
Thank you 😁
Hi I recently bought a alexandrine but I don’t know is it old or young the guy sold me the parrot told its 16 weeks old can I get any help from you thanks
There are several components to house training a parrot. One place I discovered that successfully combines these is the Parrot Ploy Plan (google it if you're interested) definately the most incredible resource that I have ever heard of.Check out the great info .
You asking if he was quick learner
And him bobbing his head
Was so cute
interesting points ,if anyone else wants to uncover how do you train a parrot try Parrot ploy plan (do a google search ) ? Ive heard some incredible things about it and my buddy got excellent results with it.
My first thought: wow, his tail is super long.
Two minutes in: omg, it fell off!!!!
supernovabay true AF
Me too. 😂
Lol
@@sunshine5668 once you're parrot or macaw loses his feathers, you can use the feathers as decorations for headdress 😊
He's so excited his tail feather fell out
hahahahahah
We know
🤣🤣🤣🤣
His head spins are so fun- what a clever, beautiful boy!
4.48 : he turns round on the perch on his own 🤣
Totally! You can see him looking up at Jessi like "Excuse me... I thought I had trained you to give me a treat every time I turn. I guess we're going to have to keep working on this behavior."
Haha! Hes so smart and does so much begging! It's so hard not to reward him for offering a behavior without me asking first (which just leads to impatience and frustration).
Nothing more glorious would ever be captured on camera than Zapper's tail feather falling off!
🤣😂 agree
Jessy, the fact that you not only realize when you've made even a tiny mistake but you always say so. Then you take all the pressure off and finish with a huge reward. Lovely to see you with your critters!
He's like "stop talking i want to touch the stick!!"
So cute, even if he doesn't, we appreciate the explanations!
Oh my gosh. What a good boy. How cute and smart he is.
He sounds like a little Pokémon. I love him so much. 🥰🥰🥰
He's was so eagerly looking at the hand that gave him treats
Every time it came near him.
Jesse I’ve been wanting to say that watching your videos these last few years motivated me to give my animals in a lab at my university the best care I can when I started working with them this semester. It made me eager to learn about their personalities and bodies :)
He's just like my bird, loves treats but I don't think any actually ends up in their mouths
Actually the nut shell falls off and he eats the inside of it, I think
Kemosabe in bird form!! :) I could listen to those little chirps all day. :D I love these videos and if I ever have parakeets again I would try training. :) - Heidi
That was so awesome to watch a whole training session like that. Definitely would enjoy seeing that with other animals.
Looks like him and you are having a great training day, so cute! I love how healthy your birds are, so engaged and understood by you.
I love how excited he is. Why does he spin his head around like that when he's excited?
It's basically just how some parrots express their excitement, and get some of that energy out. Like a dog that chases their tail when they get excited. ^_^
@@TheCassafrassTree Thank you!
When his tail feather just flopped out
Who would've thought the tail would just molt off during a video XD pretty cool to see molting happen live! Usually a parrot owner just takes about it, I didn't know it happens so suddenly like that.
What a jam-packed episode! Thank you for sharing Zapper with us. I love all the little noises he makes and how clear he communicates.
He sounds like Kemosabe.
I'd love to hear them having a conversation
Ya
He's absolutely gorgeous and so intelligent! It was almost like he instinctively knew what you wanted him to do.
Absolutely love it, Jessi. I'd say my only complaint would be how he's biting the stick rather then just touching it because it could accidentally get you aggression on cue but it doesn't look like it's a problem for you but it is something for viewers that want to try touch training to be aware of. Be very aware of how your bird is touching the stick, you totally can get over-stimulation and aggression and several emotions on cue so be very aware of how your bird is feeling when they touch the stick and try your best to not let them bite the stick. It helps to hold it out of the bird's reach and then bring it in just within their reach. I'm pretty sure Birdtricks TH-cam Channel had a bird touching it with their tongue, too funny!
Loved meeting Zapper, I haven't seen him yet! He's such a great training student, I'm a little jealous!
Zapper is such a good and talented boy! I wish new hires at my job were as easy to train, lol.
Just got a 8 months old today , I'm letting him settle on his new environment and human. But I'll be visiting your tutorials a lot. I've had parrots all kinds but it's always good to know the specifics for each species. Thanks for the tutorial
At the end he was like "will you stop moving please I am doing dangerous stuff here, human !"
He heard you talking about turning around so he jettisoned that huge tail feather to become more maneuverable.
4:55 "Where's my treat?!?"
I love how she throws in random facts about how to do something or about the animal
What a cutie! He's so into you and playing new games! 💕
He is so precious. Zapper is very cute! You are an excellent bird trainer. I have a cockateil & a Canary Winged Parakeet. 🖤🕊️
His engaged and happy sounded are wonderful
Good Job, Zapper and Jesse.
He's STUNNING. Beautiful colors.
Beautiful name, unique.
A little bit funny too because in Dutch dialect that's what we call the tv remote 😄 but still, very beautiful name
I am adopting a baby lovebird from a rescue soon! I'm very excited, and I'm going to try and teach her the circle motion and recall!
I like this parrot ! Easy and friendly !!!
omg when he accepts the almond at the end. I love this video, it's great to see content where it seems people truly care about the animals well being, and engagement. Great content, made my day
These are just so heart warming. Jessi, your passion for animals is infectious in the best way.
I like how both of your cloth's color match
He loves making you happy!
AHHH I love his little boops!!
You are sooooo amazing ♥️ I have an Alexandrine Parakeet & I've been sick worried about how much he was molting .. I found your channel last night & I've been binge watching your videos ever since!!! & I have to say, you're my saviour 🤗
Thanks a lot 🙏🏾
Zapper is so lovely!!Such a quick learner!
That was amazing! Was so much fun to watch!
it's been forever since I've seen zapper good to see him doing well
I could watch her train ALL SAY! What I wouldn't have gemucen for this kind of animal behavior retaining availability when I was college age 30 years ago. I could have made my life's passion my work as well. She is dauntless in her cheerful efforts, creativity and true connection with all sorts of animals.
Beautiful bird. Adorable sounds.
They r very adorable.. I love them so much.. I have a pair since they were little .. They r very affectionate..💖💖💖
Tail feather: POP!
I love how talkative Zapper is.
I'm in love with he laser pew pew sounds
Zapper and Kemosabe make the cutest sounds. They're interestingly similar
He's a beautiful bird. I own both Alex's and ringnecks and although I love both my Alex's really capture my heart.
At 4:45 when she is talking zapper moves 360° hoping for treat. Poor noi 😂😂😂😂😭😓😂
Been waiting for one of your uploads animal wonders!
Well that was just delightful!
What a smart bird! Great job!
Great job in training Jessi....Zapper is so adorable too:) Thanks so much:)
2:00 bye bye feather:)
Wow, I’m so proud of Zapper!
They are smart, there are a lot of those beautiful birds here in amsterdam, I allways hear them when biking through or outside of the city. If you arrange food on the balcony, you can see them from very close!
I also have an alexandrine parakeet who died in 29 March 2021 this week and he lived with us for 4 years I love him alot
How
@@lightofeyezz He stuck an iron stuff in his throat by which he didn't eat or drink for one day for which he died the next day
he's so smart! what a good boy.
so adorable!!
I had an alexendrine parakeet but in india it's illegal to keep them so I took it to ELA foundation and they freed him, it's good for him that he is in the jungle right now but I miss him a lot, he was like my small brother and his name was "ok", he was a 2 year old, zapper reminds me of him
Great job by both of you!
I love the cute sounds he makes.
It's cool seeing someone using some of the tactics birdtricks uses
Oh my god. The little chirps he makes through out... 🥰😍😍🥰💞💞💞
As a kid I had a parrot which looked like urs and I tell him to do a trick without forcing it or giving it a treat as a reward cause we took good care of it
He's so smart!
Such a pretty bird! Sweetness!
This video is awesome please post more vids on birds and training sessions with them!
This guy is awesome.
He's so good! And very pretty as well
Zapper is a darling little man!!!
His little chatter is so cute 🥰❤
7:32 - YES YES GIB MOR SEED
birb makes birb soundies
1:58 Nobody:
Bird: time to commit tail feather delete
His tail is crazy!! How do you find a travel carrier and even a cage that he can fit in comfortably without damaging his tail?
You put the perch up closer to one end of the carrier haha. It's also quite flexible
yooss zapper is my favourite
I have owned a cockatiel previously, and after about 3 wonderful years with her she passed away. It’s been 3 years since she passed and I think I’m ready to offer a home to another bird. I have been thinking about what bird would be suitable for me, I have a lot of space and a lot of free time, so I have been thinking about getting a Hahn’s or Illiger’s macaw. I’ve also been thinking of an Alexandrine Parakeet. Does anyone have suggestions?
i’m getting a rescue parrot soon and when they sent the picture i was like isn’t that an indian ringneck but the i noticed the marking on the wing and the long tail
I also had one. But he died 3 days ago. He was 27 years old and lived a very happy life. He used to talk a lot.
Nobody:
Not a single soul:
Zapper: "You spin me right round, baby, right round
Like a record, baby, right round, round, round"
Gorgeous bird
He's so CUTE!
Aye I’m early. Love your videos they help me so much ❤️❤️
What a smart boy 😍
How do you tell when it's time to stop the training session to end on a good note? Are there any signs to look for?
Hi what food do Alexandrine parrots like this most as their treats?
Love your work, I have a green cheek conure and would love to start teaching him some tricks, what’s a good treat I can give him to encourage him?
*_CUUUUUUUUUUTE!!!!!!_*
I really love animals too... I really wish i could be like you too😊
Can we see more of the conures?
I have also like that parrot and he was one year old and he will give me shake hand and also he will talk
He’s so cute and smart! >3
