I had the chance to interact with the very young caique once, and it was the most social attention seeking bird I've ever seen in my life. It was squeaking and reaching out to every single person that got close to it trying to be picked up and held, and when someone would hold it the bird would absolutely fall in love. When the bird was set down you could see it panic as it wanted to be picked up again.
These little guys have to be the funniest and most entertaining of all the parrots
I have a 1 year old male caique...Finnegan. Love his playfulness but he can switch to aggression in a second!! Still love him, though.
They're a lot of fun, just have to watch (like all birds) that they don't get too heightened!
@@BirdTricks Agreed!!
Same with mine! She's a female but she has quick mood changes :)
@@seatherny_y same!
My make ciaque has been biting me all of a sudden. He is 2.5 years old. It maybe do hormones, I think. 😪🤔
I was a dog person for all my life. Until I got a caique. I adore him. He gives as much love as he requires. My little buddy.
Awww 😊
My Caique is a rescue. Almost 8 years old now. They also love to destroy all your furniture even tho he has a lot of toys in his cage and his own tree full of toys.
They demand a lot of attention and survwillance while playing. Stil love him so much. This is his forever home 🦜💞
They are stunning!
Our caique girl has So. Much. Energy. We have an entire room set up for her, including multiple ceiling perches, lots of toys, etc, and she uses every piece. She also bonded with both my wife and I, so you're spot on with their social nature. She gives plenty of warning before she bites, but if I miss too many signals, she'll sometimes draw blood. That said, she's the perfect bird for our household.
Good to know!
Have you though about filling her beak..?
@@adriangilbert8330 why would they do that?
@@saspurillie they would do that to mitigate an issue. Namely, having blood drawn. Alongside patience and training it’s a proven method via my own experience, experience of so called experts & cross referenced research.
You nailed it! People can't even understand the energy of these little guys unless you experience it!❤
So true! It's also what makes them so loveable!
I got a 7 years old male caique at $1200, he was label as an aggressive bird. After few months he was being very evil with every body, he was absolutely controlling the house. I decided return the bird but realize, who will love him like that?... and changed my mind deciding be more patient, every time he turned evil, I put a towell on him and put him on my chest walking with him as a baby, calming him, talking and loving him more ... I learn to manage his emotions. Mylo is living 8 years more with us, we found out no body can sleep when he is out of his cage. That turn his black side and he attack very very bad. He is part of the family, he is cute most of the time, dance very well, bond with one of the family at the time and being annoying follow them like a shadow for all the house !!
You need to be plenty of time to have a caique. My caique pull out his chest feathers when he spend to much time is his cage alone, he is smart bird, and he really think he is the boss of the house.
I'm too old to get one 😪. Recognition of limitations is best for bird owners.
@@StoneE4 I've seriously considered that as an item in my will. Maybe leaving some funds for care of my four budgies.
@@wessew6185 Definitely look into making provisions for them in your will.
I have cancer and anywhere from 0-36 years to live. When I get a chance to adopt a bird, I'm going to adopt an older bird in need of a loving home.
we got our little girl 4 days ago & after a couple of hesitant hours she got comfortable & was rolling around on me playing. training is planned but ill give her some time to adjust. She also just loves cuddles already & is happy just nuzzling into my beard & making cute sounds lol i think im in love haha =D
she is also awesome with our cat ! she just marches past him & doesn't care while he tries to smell her & just looks confused hahaha
As always a great video and you 100% nailed their personality. Your advice on their diet and limiting high sugar/fats is very helpful. Thank you!
We are lucky that our local pet store get a small handful of Caiques each season. Last February we walked in to find they had two baby white bellied Caique’s available so we bought one. We love our little man so much 🥰
BirdTricks - JamieLeigh! I am so glad you posted this. In September we have two baby White Bellied Caiques on the way, at first we were hestitant to watch your video thinking... "Oh man, she is going to say something to cause us to worry about our choice." These are our first birds, by the way. And the exact opposite is true, your overview has made us think even more of our choice. The Caique fits our lifestyle perfectly. And you are right about finding a Caique, we looked for quite a while, and have subscriptions on pet websites. It's not often that we see one. In fact I've never seen one in the rescues around here, and I live in a relatively large city in the United States. We will DEFINITELY be training Amari and Ilana (our male and female -- no relation) using your methods.
I wanted to say something about the pronunciation because I just had to explain it to my daughter a day ago.
Ca-i-que -- if anyone has a hard time remembering the I after the A, then just remember that "que" always makes a hard "K" sound in English. Or remember that if the I were not the third letter then we would pronounce it "See-ake." OK, maybe that doesn't really help anyone.
It should probably be spelt "Kay-ique". The "a" making a long "i" sound is indeed confusing. But that's just how English is. :)
Also, you sent us a cameo of widget for Jacqueline, she was so surprised! Sorry I forgot to record it. She didn't believe it was real at first, didn't even think you were talking to her and that I had just found some random video lol!
FYI everyone that is looking for a Caique breeder -- they are out there, there are a handful of reputable breeders. Hopefully in about 2-3 years time there will be another one in the midwest area!
I went through Shady Pines Aviary. She sells caiques and one other parrot breed. Her list starts on Jan 1st every year and I've heard people say she's the best caique breeder in the US. She also ships all over so location isn't an issue if you live in the US.
What's her price average?
I'll bet they challenge a prospective parent as to their fitness to adopt. The store I frequent, Sugarcreek Bird Farm in Ohio, requires two or three personal visits before allowing adoption of their parrots.
@@wessew6185 They don't. I have never met this woman face to face and I'm getting mine next week.
@@kiki29073 in total I think about 1.5k. Deposit is 200$ and like 120$ for the plane ticket and carrier.
Thank you so much, once again, for all your critical information about pet birds.
I adopted a white bellied caique about a month ago, who I named Niko. We don’t know the gender yet, but the DNA test results should come back in about 1-3 days. The rescue said the bird was about 2.5 years old at the time of adoption. I knew caiques were very energetic, playful, and clingy birds, but I didn’t understand how much until I got Niko. They are also very sweet and love to sit in my bed with me when I get home from school
Great video. I have had a caique for 14 years and he resembles many of your norms.
Interesting video, even after I’ve been owning a caique for years.
Mine has one significant exception, though: he does not easily accept male guests at home.
He immediately loves girls so much, that I have a hard time taking him off the girls’ shoulder.
He immediately hate boys so much, that I must keep him in the cage while the guests are around, otherwise he would try to pierce their skin.
Thank you so much I have bin researching all evening looking for a good bird for me and I think I’ve found the one
Thank you. This was fun
Honestly one of the coolest bird in my personal opinion
I am completely addicted to the two of your’s relationships, engagements, and interactions with these birds. Not only is it impressive seeing the level of commitment to the care, but the level of genuine love and affection for them has TOTALLY sucked me in, lol. So I have now gained another favorite channel to have rolling on the iPad, lol. Terrific and very interesting content!! Thanks!!! 👍🏻😎👍🏻
you need to talk to breeders of Caique as they are tree top dwellers and require a higher amount of fruit as they eat a lot of flowers and fruit and they have a digestive system that require a natural high sugar of fresh fruit. One of my favorite birds, I raised them for 15 years
Such a lovely video
My mother in law loved watching my Caique Sunday. She was in our livingroom and right next to the TV. And my mother in law said she missed all her programs because she’d watch Sunday. She said she was constant motion. And she’s ALWAYS loved loved her toys. And she definitely prefers me to anyone, BUT, she will go happily to my husband and son and daughter. She loves everyone. She’s very funny and super smart. And we love her so so so so much! She loves going outside too. And will actually shower in the sprinklers. She loves to nibble on everything that we are eating, so you have to remember that your plate is HER plate too. Lol. I can’t recommend them enough. They’re beaks can inflict a nasty bite, but they aren’t usually bitey and definitely nothing like a bite from a bigger bird. I have a severe Macaw too and he’s never bitten me as hard as he can, ive only gotten a warning bite. But even then, his bite is much worse. And he’s a lot louder. And he is really the epitome of the one person bird. He likes me PERIOD. If you are looking to get a parrot. Find a Caique. You won’t be sorry. Jamie, do you think the black headed caiques personalities are different than the white bellied or the same? I’ve heard they are different.
Good question!!
White bellied are commonly known to be less likely to be "aggressive" but like all birds in my experience...They're all UNIQUE and no one bird is the same. Our white bellied is more bark than bite 100% She's only ever bitten my fiance to the point of blood and that was 100% not her intention to bite my fiance while her breaking up a fight with our other birds. If anything that's been the biggest downside is that caiques have a really really hard time getting along with other birds because other birds are not used to how caiques play or do not want to play how a caique wants to play like rolling around and wrestling. On top of that they are not as territorial as quakers are but definitely have the same lack of fear in their own "territory" or "home" towards other birds no matter their size.
Ours def has different relationships with each person in our house. She's most bonded to my boyfriend and will do anything for him, has a more playful relationship with my roommate and her and I are like business only haha.
She learns the best with me- I honestly just train her like I've trained every dog I've ever owned. She can identify 4 colors, touch nose and finger, dance, shake hands, recall, will fly to spots on demand- etc. Like you say she learned extremely fast and I was so surprised to find her so focused!
Omg I love these types of videos! Do you think you could do it with Quakers 😍😆😅
I’ve noticed my caique when he starts to get too heightened he’ll sort of do that puffing of feathers a lot more often and randomly start to groom even if it’s just for a split second. Doug will also EYE PIN, common way to notice if a bit is too heightened, or he starts to try to regurgitate on me. Many ways to notice if he’s getting a little bit too into what he’s doing.
Love this
Im steve in uk aww cute bird .i got a cockatiel shes loving loves cuddles lays on my chest shoulder .always sits on knee and arm very friendly bird
I’m going to be getting a really big cage for my birds I’m so excited!
I’m also getting a big cage, I saved a lotta money for it in America dollars it must be more than $120
@@excaliber8794 Errr.... with the prices of cages right now it is exceptionally more than $120 for a very large cage. At least a name brand cage that is. I saw rusty used cages going for $150-200 -- and they were maybe 36x24x36 size cages -- a good size but not HUGE. You can't even find a macaw sized cage with the proper bar spacing. (7/8 or less -- though I say 5/8 is better based on all my research and my own measurements.)
The one cage, that is huge and not an aviary, that I did find was on the order of $800-1500 depending on model. But you can't buy them, they are completely out of stock right now due to all the shipping problems.
I won't mention how much the bird itself costs -- the recent interest in birds due to COVID has driven the prices up. Let's just say the bird is far more expensive than a nice LARGE cage.
Umm
@@the._.birdss_6181 ig a cage that is very expensive to me isn’t big enough for my cockatiel
Excellent. The larger the better.
I’ve had mine for 5 years now she’s an absolute doll can be a handful but I’ve been around parrots most of my life only negative is she likes to be part of my phone conversations
Caiques are our favorite parrot. Our Pepper is a doll
Hi Widget I love you!!! 🥰😍❤ OMG she is my spirit bird! Thank you so much for all your information, I will have a caique one day. But I will have all the time and energy and love to give when I do! Without your videos I would have WAY underestimated the task and just got one not knowing!! You're amazing..love from Ohio!!! ❤❤❤
Ohio also.
Sugarcreekbirdfarm over near Dayton is a fun place to shop and visit. Their in-house caique will readily come to anyone who wants the association.
Hi. Love your videos.
How much time out of the cage ,pe day,do they need or is ok?
And, any trouble having them with you outside of the house and spesial ting to be avare of then, do and dont's ?
Thanks ✌💖
Every thing you said is true, I have 4 of them and they are great birds.
Four?! You must be as crazy as your flock! 😄
Hi! I’m a new bird owner, like 3 days new and I’m learning a lot from your videos. We rescued 2 Conures, a 2yr old male Black Capped and a 1yr old female Green Cheek. The previous owners let them mate so I’m sure there’s a lot of hormonal behavior between both of them. I know their environment is still new to them but what can we do to get them to trust us and stop biting us? They’ll fly over and land on us but then they start biting. Also what’s the best way to go about changing their diet? They were fed seed mix and only seed mix bird feed. Thank you!!
Status update
Thank you for this information! I had been considering a caique as my second bird if and when everything with my baby IRN got settled, it sounds like my only concern is whether someone is around frequently enough. It would still be a year or two before I'm ready to add to my budding flock, plenty of time to consider.
Also, thank you to those who mentioned Shady Pines Aviary! Local availability of caiques is not the best, and it looks like they also breed birds in the Brotogeris family. One of my most beloved childhood pets was a grey-cheeked parakeet (Brotogeris pyrrhoptera) named Roscoe, and while they're not available these days due to their threatened population status, it still makes me happy to see others close to his kind doing well.
I could not find a Caique when I considered them. I also didn't know they were high energy. Interesting information. 🦜
What is your seasonal feeding system made out of? And any specific treats that you use for training?
We have two caiques, male and female, white and black. At the end of the day they lay on my chest and sleep under the covers. (Only supervised of course and we never sleep with them in bet, they have their sleeping cage). They also guard me when I sleep and will rub ALL THE TIME on my shirt.
Hey! Could you tell me what cage do you use for widget?
Thanks so. Ugh for the info
Taking my cockatiel to the vet today. Wish us luck ❤️❤️

Hello Jamie Leigh ! I have a little question. First a big big subscribe to your channel and a like on your video i left youuu because you inspire me so much and your videos teach me so many things!! So i have a one year old senegal parrot. i got him from a moroccan bird shop with a very wild behaviour and so let him out the cage to teach him like you do. And he did, i succeeded in taming him and he is so adorable, but lately HE IS BEEN OBSSESSED WITH MIRRORS !! Every time i let him out he will fly to the window. And so one day he stopped singing! And i am afraid he became sad, what should i do?? Thank you so much for your help.
Love my 6 month old pineapple cinnamon green cheek conure
Wonderfull Parrots...
Very nice

Amazing video!! I do have a few questions tho..
Are there any major differences in owning a female or male caique?? Can females, like cockatiels, also lay unfertilised eggs? How can you tell them apart? Is there any diffference in personality, appearance, or vocals?
"The Animal Company" in San Francisco sells caiques and they are in great shape, tame and loving. They also have other birds and supplies.
Wow very amazing
I love my 2 year old Yoshi, WBC. Hormones twice a year. Mostly sweet but chooses violence whenever she wants. So much energy!
Bird breeder in New Jersey called bird paradise normally has them and their well socialized an they reslly seem to know what thier doing with birds got my pineapple cinnamon green cheek conure there a few months ago and I couldn't be happier with her my Ellie a sweetheart
Great video, I just love these little rascals!
Would you still consider caiques to be good starter birds, I wonder? There are many out there who say they’re not good beginner birds and since I’m close to getting me a pair those many voices that say otherwise concern me a little. I know they’re challenging birds and I’ll do everything I can to give them a good life but I worry about not being able to due to my lack of experience.
That's a hard one to answer, since there are so many variables. I've seen people have great success with them as 1st birds... and others fail miserably... Like all parrots, it's all about the education first!
honestly😬no. they can be SO agressive and are SUPER hard to read. to the point where sometimes they literally wont give any body language that there angry and they will bite
@@addisonschultz8275 Thanks for letting me know! Do you speak from your own experience owning caiques?
I actually adopted a pair and they're close to sexual maturity. It's starting to show in the male but as of now he never really bit without showing prior signs and they're both pretty tame compared to what I've heard so far, especially the female one. The biggest problem I have so far is that the male one is VERY territorial and doesn't let any stranger close to the cage without threatening to bite or dive bomb them so I have to be careful in that regard. He has no problem with letting me close though and I can handle him without any issues. However, what can be considered true is that the male one gets in those weird raptor moods in which his eyes flare red, he constricts his pupils and ruffles his feathers and shows aggressive behaviour, usually towards his mate... either he attacks her or shows mating behaviour, like regurgitating with her or trying to jump her. There's enough space for her to get away though and she never got hurt by him. It's definitely triggered by hormones and can seemingly happen out of nowhere. I ignore him during those moods - good thing is it's very easy to spot when he gets like that.
Now that I have some experiences with owning caiques I agree that they're not good starter birds and a lot of thought and research has to be done before getting them. I did that and I'd say I'm doing fairly well with them but these are birds that definitely need to be properly handled and trained. I love them to death and will keep them until the very end but it's no wonder they get rehomed often after hitting sexual maturity.
I rescued a 2 year old caique, from a very miserable condition. He was infested with mites, had severe discolouration on his feathers (mostly due to a bad diet).
He has been with me for half a year now. Completely accepted me as his ‘daddy’. Surprisingly, he has no interest in my other birds, and loves to be alone with me.
While he is extremely tame, cuddly and intelligent, he is also very, very needy and he specifically wants me (and not my family members). This sometimes makes me extremely stressed when I’m working a job as well, but I love him so much, and I’m happy he has found his forever home with me.
100% everything of this. I have 2 of this crazy birds and yes there crazyness can go from playfull to agressiv in 1 sec.
What do you give them for treat when you train them?
Cool I never knew it was said like that cai-que
It felt appropriate to watch this one at Caique speed👌
🤣
Hello dear all,
I haven't been watching so much of your movies reason is i still see your face of when you lost your amazing Toucan which i shall not name.
But, i am currently underway to home a baby Caique. And of course the best way to study and know about a bird is you.
With regards the diet, do you have list of what to feed (eventually when my baby grows) and a feeding time table please?
Have you got a video like this for a sun conoure???
Jaimeleigh wanna cracker? Sorry. I just think you've been loving parrots so long you are starting to look like one :P that's a compliment BTW :) Thank you for your work I purchased a few of your books. I especially love the Electus Diet Book. Hard copy ;)
I just got my WB Caique girl shipped to me. I waited so long for her arrival and I am so disappointed. She is flighty and does not step up and I have to chase her around the cage to get her out. The breeder obviously hand fed her and did not spend any quality time with her. I am not new to birds and I am now questioning if I want to keep this bird and continue trying to do anything with her. She runs to the back of the cage when I try to hold her, it is like she is terrified of human hands. I realize she just got shipped and thrown in different environment but I think she should not be afraid of human hands since she was hand fed. She was obviously not abundance weaned. The breeder said they do not teach commands as far as stepping up but that is part of the weaning process IMO. The breeder also told me in order to interact with her I have to chase her around the cage to hold her and hold her up against my chest and scratch her head so she gets use to me but when I do this she tries to get away. Very frustrating to pay this much for a bird that I cannot even handle and enjoy :( Any tips?
Just at a pet store today and they had a white belly.....biting my watch band, sunglasses, climbing all over,onto my hat, nibbled my ear, stuck his full beak into my ear....
Little spazz....
Nothing official, but i think i might have got me a new little buddy...🤦♂️🤣
Do you guys sell pre-made chop?
My 21 yr old caique, Peewee, is my buddy for life! He is a bit of a bully, now in his older age, but we keep it in check. (SOMETIMES the hormones get the better of him, so we try to be on top of it.) He has his favorite peeps, and others he tolerates. Regardless, he is my baby bird, and I love him!
Hello, i'm thinking about getting a Caique but i have some doubts.
I had 5 years of esperince with a cockatiel so it wouldn't be the first time parrot for me.
But i work 8 hours/day, at the moment this wouldn't be a problem because my parents recently retired so the parrot wouldn't be alone (in fact they interacted a lot with my cockatiel).
But i'm 25 and i plan to live with my girlfriend in the next 1-2 years.
So i'm worried that the parrot will be alone for too much time in the future...
My conure loves the floor and hanging upside down
if you harness train your birds, what size harness do caiques wear? i have a small from when i had a sun conure, and im wondering if itll fit one.
XS
Honestly, part of why I don't have "play time" with toys and my cockatoo, is that it goes from fun to unmanageable so fast. Cheeky gets heightened so easily, that I just stopped these types of interactions. Like you guys say, quality of time is more important than quantity lol. I let her have foot toys and hangout with me while chewing something, but if she gets to the point of chasing and body checking a toy I'm out. That's for her to do in the cage.
mine keeps on biting things around and on my hands, they dont hurt me with the bites but its annoying. although i feed them fresh veggie and TOP's mallets a littles of fresh nuts once a week
How big are they compared. Compared to say a cockatiel. And what is an average cost?
Thx for the great info ☺️ my dream bird is an African grey and I was wondering if I could do a video on there traits?
Check this video out 😀 th-cam.com/video/x8kagIt6-C8/w-d-xo.html
thx
How does owning a caique compare to owning say a high energy dog? I understand it would’ve a huge commitment of time and patience regardless. I have a cockatiel that I hand reared and so far, it’s been very rewarding and hasn’t taken up too much time, especially now that he/she is weaned. They’re perfectly happy to just chill with me all day when I’m working. But dogs are louder, messier, bigger and require a lot of attention and space to exercise yet I’ve heard all of those reasons used as reasons not to get a caique. I’m only wondering why they’re not more popular as pets, they just seem like flying puppies to me. You’ll have to excuse my ignorance on this, I’ve only kept budgies and a cockatiel and I appreciate caiques are different but are there any major drawbacks I’m missing?
What is the price range for one of these?
We own multiple caiques and theyre all playful in their own way. One likes to roll on her back while others like to crawl into pockets and hoods or hang upside down. They all really love other people and all of the family members. We live in Germany and I'd say it's actually not that hard to find caiques (at least if you're subscribed to bird magazines where people can put advertisements in)
Good to know! I'm in Germany, too, and wasn't really aware of caiques until I saw quite a few of them in a sanctuary (Vogelburg Weilrod) four years ago. Now that I've learned a bit more about them, they're one of the two most likely birds I'd consider (next to cockatiels) if I'd change from budgies to another type of parrot.
Hello do you have experience introducing adult caiques to each other? I have a 3 yr old girl and would like to find her a friend.
they are so damn cute!

@@BirdTricks love you guys and ur work
could you please talk about Hans or severe Macaws?
They are definitely not starter birds. And get rehomed ALOT due to aggression. They are smart playful very high energy. But most of them can be very aggressive at times
I have a true pair of cakes lol - I'm Scottish, but cah-eeks is the proper way to pronounce it lol. Mine are gorillas in feather form. I had six hand-reared babies that kept me on my toes. They are just a fabulous birds to have. I would certainly recommend them even as a first bird. I used to do the hop with two fingers with the babies and it seems it's hard-wired into them.
I got a 11 week old green cheek conure yesterday. I would like its nails to be trimmed, I know they're too long, but I fear it'd be too stressful to take her to grooming right away. How long should I wait?
My personal opinion is that it would be best to take her in as soon as possible because it's better for her overall wellbeing. They will be fearful of car rides afterwards but you should continue to take them on car rides to places that mean something good so cars aren't scary. In the long-term, invest in perches with a sanded side (not all the way around with sand because it can hurt their feet) so their nails can be trimmed as they grow out. I think initially, you should get her nails clipped and if the sand perches don't quite do it, you should take them in to be done professionally. Once again, this is just my opinion.
Can u get these types of birds in males
You are right, they love wet towels, they are very social, and most important, if you make them go to crazy you will pay it soon or later...they are small dinosaurs !!

I only have an Indian Ringneck baby at the moment, he’s almost a year old already and his personality is beginning to come out properly, I absolutely love it but he’s still fearful of hands other than when he wants treats, is there anything I can do or any videos recommended to watch by you guys? 🥰 x
By the way, you have al seriously been so helpful with the content and videos provided, along with a couple of patrons I’ve made friends with who have also been helpful 🥰 x
for anyone looking for a caique in the US try JC aviaries, I’ve had nothing but great experiences with them. I’m getting my caique next week from them. They’re in texas but they ship nation wide!
@birdtricks, we got a Indian ring neck since 3 years ago. We still have to hand feed him because he won’t learn how to eat. He is full grown and everytime we force him to eat, he throws up the food whatever he swallowed and looks horrible because he needs that baby food. What should I do for him to start eating ?
Doesn’t Birdtricks have information on "Diet Conversion"? That’s what you need to look up, or book a consultation with them.
Does anyone know of any reputable caique breeders in the US?
Please do a dove/pigeon video, care and so on! :D
They don’t own any doves. 🕊 It’s not really in their range of expertise.
@@spiritmatter1553 They made a video about dave bringing home a dove th-cam.com/video/MAzLq0SoRY/w-d-xo.html

He can be demanding and very high energy little Sene 😅🦜
They might have a small body but there is a BIG attitude that comes with it 😆🦜
U must get eclectus 😍
Hey Jamieleigh! Random question: I see a lot of bird breeders that put birds in one cage without any toys and I'm confused... Do they just occupy themselves with the other birds or not?
No, the breeders should also have toys in the cages, though the other birds do provide some enritchment. I wouldn't support breeders without toys in their cages
Hi I got my caique from shady pines too. She’s 8 and finally turned to the hormonal dark side lol
I have a white bellied Caique. Love that little guy sooo much. But he's a little monster sometimes.
Watching from Taipei, Taiwan. Joey is my black headed caique. He can play basketball, and put money in his piggy bank.
They're such amazing little trick trained parrots! I love hearing that Joey can do all that! Well done!
Several bird store staff and owners have discouraged me from getting a Caique because they say after a couple years that they get very aggressive and mean and are nothing like how they were fun and playful in the beginning. I don't really know what or who to believe. Any advice please?
I would advice get another species of parrot. I have one. He is 7 years and two months. I am having a hard time with him. He is very aggressive. He actually jumps on me to bite. Runs after me. Screams at me. I did train him. He is on no sugar. Veggies and pellets. He gets on me. I never force. I give him a choice. No signal and tears into me. They latch on. This is the worst he has ever been.
I don’t recommend a caique for first timer. I really would advice don’t get one.
I love my Caique but I can’t recommend them.
They become very hormonal at 5 years old. I wouldn’t even listen to advice from anyone who hasn’t worked with one that is younger than 5. I wouldn’t suggest them for a beginner at all. My most severe bite was not from my African Grey, it was my caique. They can be playful and fun, but they take a lot of training and reading body signals. I thought it would be similar to a conure, but not at all. I don’t regret getting my bird, even as I sit here with a newly pierced ear. When he was younger, he was great with kids and everyone. He still is pretty good with most people most of the time, but he has his moments that is not true at all. I am glad they are honest. It isn’t that a caique isn’t for anyone, but maybe get something else first. Almost all the videos, I see are of younger caiques. Since, they are smaller, the aggression is a little easier to handle, but I am glad my Rico isn’t my first, or even second bird.
since the pandemic, i have not seen them available anywhere.
It's a good idea, could you make a video about Amazon parrots ? And other species
They have videos on SO MANY types of birds. You should check out the other videos on their channel.
