Josh Cook is an Australian avian behaviourist also known as a bird whisperer. In this video he shows you how to train your bird to fly away and come back.
I did not mean it like this, but you must understand my point. I'm not going to "lock my bird in a cage" , but I will def. need some help in the free flight
@@yahyakarim6412 The Byrd might not come back if terrorised by something and was not properly trained on how to react to new situations, little by little! The rookie bird often doesn't even know how to come back. Several people were able to teach their bird how to fly just because they were lucky and their birds were particularly keen. Even some dogs don't come back if not properly trained!
Just so everyone knows, baby macaws are some of the easiest birds to train for free flight. Even so, there is a LOT that can go wrong if you don't know what you're doing. I hope everyone takes this as a snapshot of one person's process for training his birds rather than a "how to" guide. Please don't attempt this yourself without an experienced mentor or there is a very good chance you will lose your bird.
I really hope this guy recorded a lot more and the TV people edited this down ad absurdum. DONT LISTEN TO THIS. you must train them to come back to you dependably, train them to descend which is more difficult than you might think)and train out any bad habits like flying to other people.
I think its also worth noting that its probably worth building up slowly rather than just going straight from aviary to outside, test your bird in a hundred different places getting progressively more open if possible before attempting to do free-flight, and also establish the recall until its perfect in every situation and play around with different distances angles, corners, obstacles, other people and even other animals if its safe, before training with your bird always check its level of motivation to respond to your calls, if the bird is acting disinterested or isn't reacting at all to your calls call it a day and return the bird to its routine and try again when it is more interested or hungry... Its as much about learning to read a birds behaviour as it is about training it to do something, you cannot train a bird that is not motivated
Can u help me giving tips,I want to buy a Macao but scare after growing up it ll fly in outdoor my 2L ll fly indeed 😅, can v find trainers for surviving their flying not for return
LOVE your aviary! I will absolutely do this to mine for extra shade (cooler temps) and cover which will help avoid any issues with Red Hawks that I see/hear daily on our ranch.
Its not a freeflight trained so it never going tobe a freeflight trained bruh macaw and sunconure are the best freeflight so next time better to listen before you do something
Man, would I love to do this and my birds have come back when they accidentally flew off, but I can't. I just imagine a sharp-shinned hawk swooping down and taking a slow moving and unsuspecting meal in front of my face. Or worse, he gets lost and someone finds him and keeps him in a cage for the rest of his life. I can't imagine the torment of never knowing.
poppy pop she means really small birds can be victims to hawks, crows, ravens etc. During free flight. So flying small birds might have high risk of putting them in preditorual danger.
it's definitely possible, however, its riskier than flying a bigger bird like an amazon or a cockatoo, or better yet a macaw. Try looking into harness training your bird. Since they are smaller, they don't need as much exercise as larger birds(it's science, look it up!). The harness still lets them go outside, fly around a little bit, and explore.
I had one just like this. I found him in my yard wondering around drunk. Apparently he go a hold of some booze somewhere. He was really sick for a few days. I named him Bonaroo. Nursed him back to health. Old Bonaroo was with us for a bout 4 years my little half-wit grandson taught him how to play the piano. In the summer of 2015 he met his match after my wife accidentally shut him up in the car door ! I always told her to make sure he was in the car before you close the door. She don't listen for sh*t. He liked to go for rides in the country.I sure miss old bonaroo.
I had a Jendaya conure for 14 years he died the day I had a major stroke. But anyway loved him to pieces smart as can be he flew freely outside I would but his cage outside he would get up on my finger rand I would say one, two three and he would fly a bit and wouldi say bye,bye Pierre and he would come back. strong bond ❤ loved him so much as I know he did me very affectionate parrot he went everywhere with me with never having his flight feathers trimmed
I haven't property trained my tiel but she never actually flew, just stayed on me I always get nervous when she puts her crest down and starts bobbing her head, the only time she flew was when she missed her landing and freaked out.
I am about to get a new bird called Monty and Pineapple and they are sort of trained already but we might need to re train it so I’m super nervous 😬 to let him free fly he can already free fly but he can still fly away so we are gonna try and train him
If you establish a good relationship between you and your bird that should never be the case. If you are THAT worried your bird won't come back then do what most falconers do and put a tracker on your bird. That way if your bird gets distracted or chases something down, you have the track. Enjoy spending thousands but hey atleast you'll find your bird.
@@lilkittyanime Not true: you may establish a great relationship with your bird, but if it gets scared and/or doesn't know how to dive down from a tree to you, or thinks there's something dangerous at ground level, it will never come back! Part of the training must be to get your bird used to all noises, animals, people, vehicles, smells of the flying area.
@@andream.464 Well I thought thats a part of developing a good trust bond, showing your bird that you can always be trusted and that you are its safety. Sacking your birds out to noises, people, animals, and especially showing them how to fly down from objects is the best trust exercise. Your absolutely right birds are prey animals and if they get into a scenario they might be too distracted to even listen to you. It happens to the best of people they are still wild animals they don't have what humans and domesticated animals have made over 1000 years and even they sometimes run away. Big birds i recommend a tracker, small birds are too easy pray so just free fly them indoors or aviary , or with a flight harness😊. Thanks for your input I didnt mean to sound rude
How old is that bird. Seems to be a baby since you're hand feeding it but it's pretty big. I have a 3 month old he is now fully feathered but not that big...yet. he seems to free fly fine in the house and respond to my calls but outside not so much...easily distracted
Yes it’s possible however, it’s gonna take much longer, not just because they are so used to not flying outdoors that they will be very uncomfortable with it and scared. They will also need a slower pace so their body can be strong enough. Free flight birds require a lot of strength not to be stolen by the wind and to be able to do more than a few seconds of flight. I’d estimate over a year of training. But that also depends on the bird as it’s own being. Birds can be fast or slow to the idea but it depends more on your birds personality more than the breed sometimes.
I just saw something that inspired me to get a bird, this was the first video I found when I entered a search. I’ve always held a distaste for bird owners because a vast majority locked up like a genie in a bottle. I’ve always felt a connection with birds and if I were to be reincarnated as one I would be pretty bummed and confused about living spending my existence locked in a cage unsure why your arms have these pretty feathers on them???
One thing to keep in mind is that just because WE call it a "cage" doesn't mean a bird views it or thinks of it that way. To them, it's a home, a sanctuary -- not a prison. My Amazon parrot routinely flies very willingly back to her cage when she's loose in the house (which is often). Just as you're happy to return home after being out "in the wild," a bird feels quite similarly about returning to THEIR home. (Of course, this presumes it's a sufficiently sized cage for the species and that the bird actually is allowed to be outside of the cage regularly!)
Food isn’t the best way because they start to expect treats for everything and start to only listen to treats. It’s best to try without and then get your bird a nice snack or refill their chop bowl and pellet bowl but not the seed bowl. That way they get their nutrients in. It encourages better health and free good behavior.
most likely yes, depending on what part of your country you live in you can find birds that look like pet birds flying around, in some cases they could be peoples lost birds which is sad but if there is a lot of them in a group they are wild.
When I was a kid I had a magpie. One day he flew out of an open window. But then he came back in. A year later he ate some stuff he shouldnt have and died.
I would advise to free flight the Galah only since he/she is a bigger bird and usually can defend against predator attacks. A budgie needs a flock to escape predators. Best to just put a harness around the bugger, they don't even need that much of exercise.
Free flying budgies is actually discouraged by a lot of parrot trainers I’ve met. They have to be super fit before going out and well trained. You have to have work outs for your budgie to be able to fly without being taken by wind or animals. You can, but it’s gonna take a year or more and will be extremely dangerous because of their size crows and most birds will attack them.
That’s if you’re trying to teach them to make sounds, or trying to train them to talk. This is a simple, recognizable command. I would recommend a very specific pattern of whistles so they don’t fly off to random whistles.
1. You gotta train the bird 2. Never force your bird to fly like this guy did you can't just throw your bird. "they get to choose if they want to fly or not and thats the beauty of free flight" we all just saw you throw it off the balcony like a baseball
If your bird does not know how to fly and you chuck them out your balcony, it would be a sad sight.( Just like a balloon filled with red liquid thrown into a jungle )
@@heehee407 He’s actually very right? The purpose is so your bird will enjoy it. You can tell the macaw didn’t enjoy the toss and was uncomfortable with it. Even had their mouth open which is a sigh that it was too hot or too difficult for the macaw.
@@annamaiaroli8848 A cockatiel is likely to become prey to a bigger predator bird in the area, also if you tiel spots a predator bird it may shit itself and fly away. A harness is the best way for smaller birds.
Yep just be hyper vigilant about predators. I fly an Albino Quaker most days of the week, never had a problem but I end the session as soon as I get any hint of a predator.
When I move out to the country I do plan on getting another parrot ana when I do I plan on free flying them. A cage is no place for a bird it’s a waste of life to them IMHO
So? Birds bite. She's telling him that she wants more food, or isn't in the mood for pets. What you really should be talking about is how he handles the bite. Pushing his hand towards the her beak tells her that 1) he acknowledged the bite 2) that biting harder will get her nowhere It's a great tactic.
Somehow I got here ... Humm he is definitely not a bird whisperer or a behaviourist. There is thing called thin ice, he is getting away with it through blind luck, not methodology or understanding. It is rather a misuse of trust. Anyway back to my lovelies.

You have to have work outs for your budgie to be able to fly without being taken by wind or animals.

For budgies I'd get a large aviary, free flight inside or harness.
They're too small for free flight. Xx
I heard you shouldnt teach them to whistle unless that already know how to say words
True?
That’s if you’re trying to teach them to make sounds, or trying to train them to talk. This is a simple, recognizable command. I would recommend a very specific pattern of whistles so they don’t fly off to random whistles.

Ill check out your vid, thanks. Hopefully, you didn't miss too many details as this idiot did.
You really did not go over how you get a bird to fly to you that first time after doing the whistle/food step. Bad tutorial.
