I've almost watched all ur vids! I love the fact that you treat your birds like you would treat a child. I hope i get a budgie soon. I am making notes on all ur vids to show them! Kermet and Ducky are my favourite (don't tell the others!)
@@emmaa1686 not yet, my parents were so close to getting one when something happened where we couldn't get one. We are planning to get a dog instead, but I still love her vidoes
@@riya.reynolds aww birds are so cool tho lol i have three and in 1 day i taught one to spin and give kisses and the day before target trainer her she is so clever im so lucky 😍
Thanks Elle! I never did say that after watching this video months ago. I took it a step further today. Usual fetch reps.. then I added a perch a foot away from table. Did a few flight from table to perch. Then I went back to the fetching. Few fetch reps, then I simply moved behind the perch and signaled my hand.. and yay!! Now my conure is flying it to my hand. Simple! Thanks again Elle!
I've had my birds for a year they are still terrified of me :< trying to train my bird Jack (Since my other bird is pregnant so she won't get out of the box) he is still rlly scared of me ;w;
@@sso_pancake6430 Yes I put my finger in front of Jack a few times he won't get on he just stares at it and then he starts glaring at me , he let's me pet him now nothing else he'll only eat from my hand (He won't eat from the palm of my hand) and he'll let me pet him not a single thing else
i have been trying to find a video like this for so long now! im geting two parakeets soon and i have been studing so much and now evrytime i study about them i go to your channel.keep posting!
I'm teaching my cockatiel Connie how to fetch and she knows how to do it now! Well Connie doesn't like millet but she loves food especially fruit so I give her blackberries and she can fetch now! Thanks again Elle your a good trainer! And tamer
I have a question. So I have a budgie, I’ve had her for 7-8 weeks now or so, and I’m letting her out everyday. But she’s not a fan of it, she ONLY wants to sit on me, or a perch that I hold. I need to be very close to her and always have my hand close to her if she’s on a table or my bed or any object in my room. If I’m not close enough she will fly over to me under my hair and sit there. ,or sit in my shirt. Do you have any techniques to help my budgie fly around more? I don’t clip her wings or anything, but I guess some budgies just aren’t a fan of it? Please help me find out why she doesn’t like it..
She’s probably either a more chill budgie, or a still a bit nervous. Once she gets more accustomed to her surroundings, she’ll probably fly around more. If this doesn’t happen, look at what your feeding her. If you’re over feeding her, under feeding her, or feeding her fatty foods (like seeds), she might not want to exercise much. If none of these are the case, then look at her poop. If it looks weird compared to other budgie’s poop, take her to the vet. If none of these are the case, she’s probably just a calmer bird
Another good video. I do think you should explain the concept of using a bridge especially in the initial steps of learning. Once the bird knows what you want, as ducky does here, it's no longer really needed but I continue to tell my bird 'good!' whenever he does what I ask, even if he doesn't get a treat every time.
Yes!! Thank you for this! I am really wanting to teach Louie a trick, but each time I try he gets really mad at me because I won’t give him the treat right away 😂 Maybe this will help, it’s a bit different than other vids I watched, but it just depends on Mr. Angry’s mood 🤣😆
Lol 😂🤣 try to say “good” or something like that right when Louie completes the action, that way he will learn that every time you say it he’ll get a treat. Something not specific to teaching a bird to fetch but helpful for training in general. I hope he takes to this trick 🤞
Great explanation! And Haha omg Ducky is such a cute tiely, I was thinking that when she was just eating the millet and then when I saw her fetch the ball I almost died 🤣 she’s adorable ! VERY smart too!
Great job teaching a bird! I never thought about trying that. Birds are so smart! kind of reminds me of teaching my labs to retrieve. Love it!!! Good job Ducky!💖🐥👏😊
It can be helpful if you’ve never tamed a bird to clip her wings in the beginning until she’s more comfortable with you. The key thing is that you’re not chasing her around the room if she tries to fly away from you, because that breaks a lot of trust and causes stress for your bird. However, you can definitely tame her without clipping her wings but it would take more time and patience. I personally have never clipped a birds wings and would recommend avoiding it if possible. Either way, you’d want to make sure you give her lots of treats like millet to build trust. To teach her to step up, encourage her by putting the treat on the other side of your hand so she has to step up or at least lean over your hand to reach it, then build from there. I will be doing a video on taming in the future :)
@@ElleAndTheBirds thank you! Im just getting nervous because i dont want to clip her wings because i feel its a very traumatic experience for a little birb, but i feel id have to the second she starts learning to fly again.
Quinnist qq you can take your tiel to the vet or a pet store to get it done. Flight is actually a very good thing for birds, but I get it if you need to clip until your bond is established.
I’m finally seeing this! I’ve been wanting to see it but I have been sick and really slacking my TH-cam life 😂 Great vid!! Can’t wait for Rico to learn after some practice!
Parakeet Life for safety reasons I don’t want to give out the name of the pet store in a comment (I live close to it) but if you have insta can I dm you?

I have question! I am getting my first bird in a few weeks. I am getting a pink bourkie (pink parakeet) and wondering for the bird cages what should be the best bar spacing for the birds cage! Can someone please help me!!!!
I’ve tamed my bird winter but she does fly away form me if I make a load noise or sudden movements with her on my She doesn’t play with toys :P She’s a budgie and chirps with me sometimes (I’ve tamed her brother also a budgie and he never Chirps with me) So I’ve become very happy spending time with winter :D
Hi there! Love your videos. They are so informative! Question: when I train my bird do I have to give her a treat everything or eventually she'll learn without?
Great video! You and Ducky are Adorable!! So happy to meet you ❤

My bird.. steps on the ball and flies to the treat and he does a flip for the treat 😂🙃
Nice intro, thanks for sharing

Nice training

How brilliant! I just got a cockatiel but it’s not trained yet. Any tips for taming a cockatiel?
Thank you sooooo much my bird van do this so well thank you so much
Hello , I’m looking into adopting a cockatiel and I’m only finding very high prices :( how much did ducky cost?
Parakeet Life she was hand fed and cost $125. I know that because I still have the card that said she was reserved :)
Live Laugh Birds thank you so much! Do you happen to know what that place was called?
Parakeet Life it was just my local independent pet store, and it was 4 years ago. Do you have any bird rescues/shelters near you?
Parakeet Life for safety reasons I don’t want to give out the name of the pet store in a comment (I live close to it) but if you have insta can I dm you?
Live Laugh Birds oh I actually don’t have insta 😣 sorry . But it’s crazy that we live in the same area ! Also I have not gone to look at any pet stores yet I’m just looking online .
Wowwwww great video.
Aww cute I need to teach my bird that love your video have a nice day and how was school
Thanks so much! School was good today :)
is it normal for some breeds of birds to have black or stipped beaks?? I found cockatiels on craigslist but they all but only 2 have black beaks.
My bird is in love with mango's when I say that she's had enough mangos he starts making noises😂😅
0:48 ducky be flexing
That helped my daughters budgie birds and my son"s budgie
Ducky is such a good bird!You two are a match made in heaven ❤ BTW , Could you please do a video on how to introduce new toys to birds??
When I started to train by bird this trick it started chewing the ball.
What should I do?
is a light plastic ball with a bell insite also good?? And is this still posible if the bird is one year.
I have question! I am getting my first bird in a few weeks. I am getting a pink bourkie (pink parakeet) and wondering for the bird cages what should be the best bar spacing for the birds cage! Can someone please help me!!!!
This is a trick i need for my bird
Helpful thanks
I’ve tamed my bird winter but she does fly away form me if I make a load noise or sudden movements with her on my
She doesn’t play with toys :P
She’s a budgie and chirps with me sometimes (I’ve tamed her brother also a budgie and he never Chirps with me)
So I’ve become very happy spending time with winter :D
do i have a birb? no.
am i going to watch this video all the way through anyway? *yes. yes, absolutely.*
Elle when you pick up the ball ducky actually waved! Did you see it she thought you were doing a wave 😂！？
she also did eagle wing
My cockatiel is 2 months old can i train him this trick or no?
I want to try this with Pecky. Thank you for that ☺️
#Pecky np! If Pecky learned to fetch that would be adorable!!! 😍
Does chew sticks work for training? My birds loves sticks rather than food.
What kind of food is this do you give them. I have 5 bird 3 big and 2. Small I want to let them learn like your bird ?😍😚🥰
What is the treat you are using
Hi there! Love your videos. They are so informative! Question: when I train my bird do I have to give her a treat everything or eventually she'll learn without?
Pls give the link of wicker ball in amazon india
I subbed ❤️ This is so cool👍 Amazing video☺️ I LOVE DUCKY😍
