Nice to see you have a sleeping cage. My three all sleep in a small portable cage on sheepskin for almost 20 years. At sundown they cannot wait to go to bed.
What cute BHC's! I have two BHC boys. Routine is definitely a must for these guys. We have a similar routine as well. Sleeping cage, daytime cage area, playtime, training, etc.
We have a female Caique too! She also has a sister but a different species (conure) and we are concerned about keeping hormones in check to control any egg laying as they grow up. Our Caique is an "teen-ager" (3 and a half years old) and her sister is a baby or maybe you could consider her a "toddler". Our Caique gets up around 8:00 a.m. and goes to bed around 8:00 p.m. like clockwork. At night she jumps in her cage and gets on her "bed" perch and calls for us to come and "tuck her in". It's adorable! Thanks for sharing the video!
OMG that is so cute that she wants you to tuck her in! Hormones can get crazy in caiques, sleep is so important for them. Thats an amazing routine you have. How does she go with your conure?
Great video and especially the routine, that's very important especially the 12hour sleep. My two are 7:30-1930hrs like clockwork covered up for security and sleep. Nobody mentions the first poo in the mornings 😅😅 yes two big black ones. Mine will not poo in their cage. They spend 10 hours out of the cage, then 20 mins for breakfast and 1 1/2 hrs evening meal. They have approximately 10hrs in the bungalow free range. They are really looked after and really noisey in the mornings.
@@scoutthecaiqueparrot9288 it was in a pet store out of my area, they has all kinds of birds, tiels budgies Amazon’s galahs eclectic grass parrots rosellas, kakarikis, caiques, and more. I think all of them were untame except a few budgies conures and a kakariki
@@scoutthecaiqueparrot9288 the budgies didn’t lay me any mind, the conures were in an enclosed box, but I stuck my finger through the caique and it affectionately gently nibbled on my finger, and let me scratch it on the forehead and belly ( and unlike cockies, who will randomly lash out if u want them to stop) he just calmly chewed my finger slowly when he had enough. It was adorable, but sadly I can’t have any more birds and they cost 1,200 dollars 😞 all I want it one
Love this video. A great instruction of an actual day with them. I am getting a white bellied on Monday to finish off weaning. Can you tell us which type of seeds & pellet mixture that you use. Is a cockatiel mixture okay?
Hi, my 3yo caique got a tent (for parot ofc). very interesting method with sleeping (cage) pity i didnt know about this way. maybe if i buy a new one caique i will use this. thanks for sharing. all the best.
A tent like the happy huts ? If so please remove it they might chew and ingest the fibres on it and get hormonal and think it's nest and the fibres cause crop impaction and may lead to death
I have a caique. I find that he (genetically tested) is fairly loud but they are not noisy. Loki gets a breakfast of pellets, a wet food bowl (usually with peas, carrots, and a green leafy non calcum binding vegetable) and a skewer with a sliver of corn and pepper and usually a quarter of a guava (in the fall and winter he gets pomegranate in his bowl instead). and as an evening snack he gets a bit of birdie bread (cornmeal, pumpkin, an egg some cayanne and rumford baking powder for leavening) he asks for it, and he asks "did a bee eat my birdie bread" and : where do you get your birdie bread" I do a 8:30 am, 8:30 Pm sleep schedule.
Good routine. Maybe fruit every other day bc fruit to a bird is like candy to a human. same with seeds. seeds every day can cause a fatty bird. your birds are so adorable 🥰
"OH NO, YOU'RE FEEDING YOUR PARROTS SEEDS ITS GONNA KILL THEM" *looks over at my Sun Coure eating straight up butter off my toast* "Totally not the same."
i am just starting to learn about a caique, mine is very friendly but does not try to do tricks, what are you giving them for a treat after a trick, any other suggestions on training would be a big help, thanks
You take such good care of them. Can you tell me why that one has been plucking its feathers out? Also did you clip their wings because they often feather pluck if you clip their wings. They need to be able to fly or their mental health suffers, and they need to fly to keep their heart fit.
Thank you for all the work and the information 👍. I lived with a grey some time ago and sadly he's gone. I wondered how it was like living with a Caïque. Do they need much cage time or do they like free roaming? What about the mess they make (I often see people playing with them on their beds). Do they destroy much? Thanks again and all my best wishes for you guys!
They are a loud parrot and messy! The mess is from the fresh vegetables and fruit mainly. They love to be outside their cage for a couple hours a day if possible. They destroy a lot! Keep away shoes, watch bands, phone covers. They have very strong beaks. I allow they on our bed, however I wait for them to poo beforehand!
i am thinking about getting one, but nobody addresses the discharge subject and always show them walking on couches/ beds etc, how do you control them when they are for instance on your bed from pooping on it?
The pellets are fruit pellets, with artificial dyes, and the seeds aren't sprouted and what is in the seed mix? Also, maybe their dinner should have more vegetables and less sweet things, like a vegetable chop. There are loads of vegetables you can put into a vegetable chop, and you can add things like pasta, legumes, grains. If you're going to slowly diet convert, I'd recommend Tops pellets.
@Aurore Aurore the problem is in nature they are constantly foraging for food burning off the excess fat but in captivity they get nowhere near the amount of exercise as in the wild and therefore not having a good diet makes them obese and damaging for their health and also alot of companies add way too many dyes and sugars and the veggies give them the nutrients they need + pellets
They sleep in their night cage in our study. It’s quiet and dark for 12 hours sleep, away from tvs and us. I would avoid the laundry due to the chemicals and smells :)
If they were on their natural habitat, they would be living to their fullest potential as Nature intended. It's a curse indeed to be beautiful, playful and musical. Everyone wants to own and control you.
Hello I hope you read this message because I need some advice, I wanted to take a gulet, precisely a white belly, but first of all I wanted to know the differences between the white belly and the black head, also if I wanted to take a pair they can be of the same sex? if so what advice? I'm really in crisis
Hello. Why do they have to be this cute 💖🥰 But this is just a friendly tip: coloured pellets are bad for parrots. Some good brands are: Harrison's, Tops, Marlene Mc'choan signature blend.🥰
Mine go through phases!! It’s usually when seasons change mine get bitey. It’s one and then the other. Mine scream too! Mainly any time there’s running water, washing machine or when I’m on the phone!.
Is a much smaller cage where they go to sleep. It’s in a quiet, dark room where they get 11-12 hours sleep a night. I find it works really well for them
Sun conures are much more annoying when it comes to making noise, caiques are usually quiet , But can be noisy at Times especially when you're not given them enough attention or if they are hungry but it's not as bad as a sun conure..
I haven’t had sun conures. They are louder than love birds and cockatiels. When I dropped them to a bird hotel when we went away she she said they competed with the lorikeets. I have recorded them getting up to 90 decibels. They absolutely have quiet periods. But they can be really loud, ours like to scream been you are on the phone, when we get home or when they want attention. If you go up to them at these times it encourages them to scream more as they get attention when they do. I hope this helps :)
depends on the bird but most are quiet check other videos on youtube...some people have these in apartments so that being said you know most of them are pretty quiet. Its also a different deal if you have one or two birds as they hype each other up and if its a single bird it only adapts to you and their environment however most are not loud at all
The parrots who have the biggest impacts from these are eclectus as the dyes can cause toe tapping due to their unique digestive systems. I’m not super familiar with other breeds. But foods with dyes do tend to be higher in sugar and should not be the only food option provided (I.e. should also be providing veggies and/or another pellet)
Hey did your caiques got agressive around 3-4 years old ? I really want to get one but I’ve read so many horror stories about them turning into maniacs around that age due to “puberty” (hormones) :/
They should have veggie chop not seeds as a diet. I recommend tops pellets not the colorful ones. Fruit has a lot of sugars so they should have a mixture of veggies. Seeds are really fatty
Quick question - our 8 months old Caique screams very loudly at the mornings... Usually after he eats his breakfast and is ready to start a day. He's got around 2 hours period when he just wants to run on window stool and scream very loud(like, really very loud)! He won't stop doing it for word. We're very concernd about this behaviour, living in apartment building our neighbours might complain at some point. Your caiques look calm in that term, maybe you got some suggestion?
Hi .. thanks for your video ... I am thinking of getting one of those birds, my main concern if they are very noisy, you said that they are loud ... is that occasionally ? or they are noisy all the time?
I just got a 6week old male white bellied caique and I used to have more a few years ago, They can be a little noisy at times but that's usually due to not getting enough attention/playtime or if they are hungry , They are quiet most of the time but when they do get noisy it isnt as bad as say a sun conure..

They absolutely have quiet periods. But they can be really loud, ours like to scream been you are on the phone, when we get home, when i have a nap (they always know!) or when they want attention. If you go up to them at these times it encourages them to scream more as they get attention when they do. I would say they scream on average 2-6 times a day ranging from 1 scream to screaming for 5 minutes. I hope this helps :)
@@scoutthecaiqueparrot9288 At what age do they usually start to hop around? You have more experience with them then I do , I use to have 3 of them a few years ago but I didnt have them for very long because I had to move and I couldn't bring them with me , Now I have a 6week old male WB caique, still hand feeding him but he can walk around , so I just wanted to know when can I expect him to start developing that caique personality that we all love ?
I found it different for each of my birds. Scout - she doesn’t hop. She dances, she is super intelligent and loves to explore. She loves to play but not with me but wants me to watch her play. She didn’t develop her caique like personality until she was about 9-10months. She likes to be with us but also alone. Tonks - loves to hop, starting hopping from 6 months and her personality really came in at 4-6 months. She wants to be on you the whole time and loves to play with you.
@@scoutthecaiqueparrot9288 If people only researched parrots like i did before making a poor spur of the moment decision, these rescues wouldn't be jammed full! I'm a disciplinarian, "oh what, you don't wanna go in the water!?" "Too bad here you go!!" LOL. Can't work with parrots like that! Honestly i just don't have the patience to deal with the amount of fear these animals can exhibit. I'd b the one with the spray bottle or a broom when the screaming starts!
I'm on so many bird pages where they are constantly getting rehomed. Its horrible. Its a lifetime pet. They benefit from the shower steam, their favourite bathtime is when I vaccum! I put multipule bowls out for them to hop in and out of. lol
@@scoutthecaiqueparrot9288 nope one of them is banded on their right let which symbolizes a male parrot while the other has it on their left which symbolizes female
That’s really interesting. They have both been dna tested. We even thought one could be a boy and got her retested because she keeps humping her sister. It came back as female 🤷🏼♀️
@@scoutthecaiqueparrot9288 that's interesting. Check out if they could be a hermaphrodite, I used to work with an amazon parrot who was dna male but was then *humped* by our other male. Chance is they could be both genders.
? Why do have these birds? Wow, Seems like they are your children, not pets. Having pets is purely a selfish human thing we do for fun and entertainment, unless they serve purpose like hunting dogs or something.. These animals are meant to be in the wild aren’t they? Seems like you are craving motherhood. You would probably make a very good mother. Raising children can make the world a better place with good parenting.
Thank you, I am a mother, I believe a very good one. I know your heart it is in the right place when making this comment and you meant well. I feel it should be somewhat focused on people who neglect/abuse their pets as there are many out there in this world and not on someone who is looking after their pets well. Owning a pet is 100% a privilege not a right. There are many great causes to protect animals to great behind, that I feel you will be great in. And in fact to protect children as well. Remember to always be kind x

Thank you so much 🥰
Thanks for this. Few people have the discipline and commitment level to properly care for caiques or lorries. And you for educatingandwarning folks'

I’m getting my first caique this weekend! I cannot wait, his name is Skittles and he’s 2 years old.
How are you and skittles? :)

Always be sure to get info from different sources do lots of research before getting a caique. I recommend BirdTricks as a source.
Oh my, they are just nonstop! 🥰
Absolutely gorgeous birds. Thank you for really looking after them❤❤❤❤❤❤
These birds are amazing
They’re the cutest
😘😘🥰
Thank you for this video, I've been looking into getting a Caique and seeing your birds daily routine really helps :)

So true! 😂
Wow fruits and vegs for dinner, we were instructed at nursery only to give fruits and vegs for breakfast
Love this video. A great instruction of an actual day with them. I am getting a white bellied on Monday to finish off weaning. Can you tell us which type of seeds & pellet mixture that you use. Is a cockatiel mixture okay?
If you're in the US, the birdtricks seasonal feeding system and pellets are great

Where did you get their daytime cage? It’s so big!
You take such good care of them. Can you tell me why that one has been plucking its feathers out? Also did you clip their wings because they often feather pluck if you clip their wings. They need to be able to fly or their mental health suffers, and they need to fly to keep their heart fit.

Being loud birds, are they on par with sun conures?
Sun conures are much more annoying when it comes to making noise, caiques are usually quiet , But can be noisy at Times especially when you're not given them enough attention or if they are hungry but it's not as bad as a sun conure..
I haven’t had sun conures. They are louder than love birds and cockatiels. When I dropped them to a bird hotel when we went away she she said they competed with the lorikeets.
I have recorded them getting up to 90 decibels. They absolutely have quiet periods. But they can be really loud, ours like to scream been you are on the phone, when we get home or when they want attention. If you go up to them at these times it encourages them to scream more as they get attention when they do.
I hope this helps :)

But foods with dyes do tend to be higher in sugar and should not be the only food option provided (I.e. should also be providing veggies and/or another pellet)

Tonks - loves to hop, starting hopping from 6 months and her personality really came in at 4-6 months. She wants to be on you the whole time and loves to play with you.
Does anyone know a good breeder of Caiques? I have been scammed 2 times already.
How do you work or do anything Else?
My husband and I are both shift workers. So there’s always someone home with them 😁
No flight training?
Both are able to flying currently. When their wing grow back we will add it back into their training 😁
Are they potty trained? My caique poop alot and I'm trying to potty train her
Yes they are. 1 is better than the other. 1 does her morning poo over the toilet every morning 😂
@@scoutthecaiqueparrot9288 awesome
They don’t actually get in the water??
Interesting.
If you want your life turned upside down.....get a parrot!! No joke!!
100%!
where did you buy those balls
Please give water
I’m thinking of getting me one but when time goes by does the hair on top of them start to turn orange?
In the wild there is two different species, blackheaded and whiteheaded. So no they don't change color while getting older:)
Hoped that helped you out
J Johnsson is correct there are two types. My two are blacked-headed caiques. The orange headedcaiques are called white-bellied caiques ☺️
Fun fact they live on different sides of a river and therefore got there head color different.
That’s awesome!
Name Of the Bird?! And price??
It’s a Caique Parrot. Price depends on breeder 🙂
but they don't actually get in the water??
no, so odd I know! I try to but they just want to be in there and sing.
@@scoutthecaiqueparrot9288 If people only researched parrots like i did before making a poor spur of the moment decision, these rescues wouldn't be jammed full! I'm a disciplinarian, "oh what, you don't wanna go in the water!?" "Too bad here you go!!" LOL. Can't work with parrots like that! Honestly i just don't have the patience to deal with the amount of fear these animals can exhibit. I'd b the one with the spray bottle or a broom when the screaming starts!
I'm on so many bird pages where they are constantly getting rehomed. Its horrible. Its a lifetime pet.
They benefit from the shower steam, their favourite bathtime is when I vaccum! I put multipule bowls out for them to hop in and out of. lol
@@scoutthecaiqueparrot9288 Vacuum???
Your birds are so cute! By the way your diet is not a good nutritional diet for birds, make sure to do your research!
Thanks for your feedback, I'll take it onboard :)
I just want to tell you not to feed them seeds unless training and no fruit together with the vegetables fruit should also be uses as a treat
Thank you, I’ll take it onboard
My white bellied caique hates to be cage, so I spend alot time with him, because he's my only caique and my conure hates him
I will really appreciate if you can help me get a pair. I have been looking for one for a long time.
I’d recommend researching a breeder near where you liv and they will point you in the right direction
Bitte Deutsche Übersetzung 🙏🦜🦜🦜🥰🥰❤️❤️😍😍❤️❤️

This is male and female!!?
2 females 😊
@@scoutthecaiqueparrot9288 nope one of them is banded on their right let which symbolizes a male parrot while the other has it on their left which symbolizes female
That’s really interesting. They have both been dna tested. We even thought one could be a boy and got her retested because she keeps humping her sister. It came back as female 🤷🏼♀️
@@scoutthecaiqueparrot9288 that's interesting. Check out if they could be a hermaphrodite, I used to work with an amazon parrot who was dna male but was then *humped* by our other male. Chance is they could be both genders.
If put A Bird In A Running Shower = Deadly
i have a white bellied caique
it likes to steal my food😢
Bro spoke British 💀
too small of a cage love
Consider YOUR age before getting one. It might outlive you. Make arrangements for that possibility.
100%! We will out live ours 👍🏼 unless they live 50-60 years. Then it will be our kids
there loud?? but not 1 clip them making loud noises lol
Where do I got to snare a bird lady wife?
😂😂😂
Caique, Not cake.💀
Caiques are NOT LOUD---- just fyi!!! They hardly make any noice at all!
Wow, you are very lucky! I’m on caique forum and majority agree they are loud.
?
Why do have these birds?
Wow, Seems like they are your children, not pets.
Having pets is purely a selfish human thing we do for fun and entertainment, unless they serve purpose like hunting dogs or something.. These animals are meant to be in the wild aren’t they?
Seems like you are craving motherhood. You would probably make a very good mother. Raising children can make the world a better place with good parenting.
Thank you, I am a mother, I believe a very good one. I know your heart it is in the right place when making this comment and you meant well. I feel it should be somewhat focused on people who neglect/abuse their pets as there are many out there in this world and not on someone who is looking after their pets well.
Owning a pet is 100% a privilege not a right.
There are many great causes to protect animals to great behind, that I feel you will be great in. And in fact to protect children as well. Remember to always be kind x
cakes ain't parrots
STOP CALLING THEM CAKES!
