PARROT TRAINING

The first step towards Parrot Training is to turn your new parrot into a family pet by getting it acquainted to its new environment. To be able to do this you must be able to see through the parrots eyes. You will see that it is frightened and alone in a total foreign environment. Effective Parrot Training is about reassuring the parrot of its safety by moving very slowly and talking gently. Several days may pass before it begins to calm down. Take advantage of this time to familiarize yourself with the parrot’s signals, both through its speech and its body language so that the subsequent Parrot Training sessions can be more fruitful.

Parrots should never be allowed to bite
the hand that holds them. To distract the
Parrot from biting, push the parrot’s head
gently away from the biting spot.

When the parrot begins to tolerate your presence close to the cage without becoming overly agitated, you are ready to begin Parrot Training to the hand. No matter how frustrated you may become during the next phase of Parrot Training, you must at all times demonstrate the overall enjoyment that the parrot can feel by perching on your hand. No session should be more than 15 minutes which is about the maximum attention/patience span for a parrot.

Never hit a parrot to discipline it, no matter what it may do during Parrot Training. Parrots accept force only as a threat.

Patience and gentleness are the only things to which they will respond. For your own safety, wear leather gloves to work with smaller parrots during all Parrot Training sessions.

Begin the process of Parrot Training with your hand inside the cage, where the parrot now feels relatively secure. Moving very slowly and talking gently to the parrot, softly push your hand or stick against the parrot where its chest and leg meets. This will usually force the parrot to jump onto your finger or stick. With the larger parrots this is an essential part of Parrot Training and needs to be repeated several times each day for at least a week with the stick and then subsequently using your flattened hand.

After a week of success inside the cage with this unique Parrot Training technique, begin offering the Parrot small treats with your free hand whenever it perches on your other hand. When the Parrot has become totally at ease with this phase of Parrot Training, slowly pull your hand with the Parrot on it out of the cage. The first few times that you do this, the Parrot will probably jump off your hand or try to grab the bars when it nears the door. Be patient and continue this process of Parrot Training until the Parrot is relaxed on your hand outside the cage.

In the next Parrot Training session when the Parrot is outside the cage, begin offering the Parrot small treats with your free hand. Don’t make a grab for it. It is important that the Parrot should be allowed to fly about the room in this session of Parrot Training. The room should have been completely sealed off before beginning this and then slowly approach with your perching hand extended to the Parrot. If it will not respond, try holding a treat over the perching hand. If this fails, temporarily hold off this Parrot Training session and allow the Parrot to rest for a while before trying again.

Only now can a second person be brought into the room. Begin the process of Parrot Training again from day one, inside the cage at first, with the new person close to the cage. Gradually move through this whole process of Parrot Training and eventually allow the additional person to present a few treats to the Parrot as it perches on your hand outside the cage.

Parrots welcome a scratch behind
the head once they find themselves
to be comfortable with their owner.

Repetition is the key to Parrot Training and to make a bird do anything, and includes talking. All members of the Parrot family, from the budgerigars to the macaws, are capable of imitating human speech, as well as many other sounds. Slowly and gently repeat the desired word over and over again to the bird. No Parrot Training lesson should last more than fifteen minutes, but remember also to repeat the word whenever you pass the cage. Parrot Training tapes are available that may help in the process, but there is no substitute for hard work on your part.

During the Parrot Training session when the Parrot makes its first word, lavish treats upon it along with any particular praise to which it has shown a liking. Each new word after this first one will probably come more easily and quickly.

This procedure is an important part of Parrot Training and will work for many different tricks that owners teach their Parrots to perform. The easiest actions to teach them during Parrot Training will be those that emulate and build on actions they already do on their own in their cages when they are undisturbed, such as climbing, carrying small objects and flying from one perch to another.

Thank you very much, this is the smartest purchase that I have ever made."

"Your Training Course is excellent. It is a great reference guide. I like to go over it again and again. I was feeding Shadow (Electus Parrot) with an apple a day with some seeds. Your Chapter on nutrition in the book has helped me tremendously to understand my pet's eating habits and how to change them for his benefit. I have worked with your sugg-estions and found my darling parrot enjoying his new recipes. Your Kitchen Counter write up is great. Thanks a ton for this great information."

Hi Rachel,

As my bird would say 'Boy Oh Boy' this is the best training course I have ever seen.
I have an 8 month Old Blue front Amazon.
He had started doing this scream every time I got out of his sight, and when I would come back in the room he would laugh, and I would say you are not funny.
I started using your course and now he is a totally different little boy, we were just shocked over the change. He talks up a storm and now he says "My mommy sure loves me a lot".
I will recommend your program to all of my Bird friends. I raised African Grays and am always talking to people about birds but as Lucky says 'Boy Oh Boy You are the BEST'

Thank You SO MUCH

Betty Baker

Dear Rachel,

"I love, love, love your KnowParrots training manual!!!!! It has made my bird and I better friends. I have an African Gray, named Sydni, and I have had her since she was a baby. Yes, I hand fed her, but at the time I had 89 or 90 birds to also take care of. She absolutely adored me, until I moved her from the bird house into my house. That is when our problems began.
She is much better now, and I understand her better also. It is all due to your KnowParrots Training Manual !!!!! She is also talking more and interacting with my other animals. Two miniature dauschands, and two cats. She will get down on the floor and play with them.
Thank you so much, for your program!"

Sincerely,
Donna Tolbert

"I purchased your training course to use on my 2 year old Cockatiel and my 4 year old Pionus. It worked great on getting them to stop yelling. I also loved your diet section. Now I can give them a more varied diet. My son just purchased a Macaw and we tried some of the material on him. It is working great. The Macaw is responding very well. The only time he makes loud noises is when he is hungry. I enjoyed reading your material and will keep reading it as I learn something new each time I read the book.
Thank you for your help with my birds."

"Wow, most impressed with your training course, I am a fist time owner of a one year old conure parrot called Bobby. I have only had Bobby a few months and he was quite a handful. Bobby would not let you near him and was screaming all day long, as you can imagine this is very hard to live with. So I purchase the e-books and was very apprehensive that anything as simple as Rachel's instructions could possibly work. So after putting our two dogs in the bedroom, safely out of the way. I followed what had been written, since Bobby had never been out of his cage I took a deep breath and threw a clean tea towel over him and quickly placed him on a table top training table. I can tell you he was not too pleased with this and tried to bite me, but like instructed with the two sticks we slowly started the process of training bobby not to bite. After a few days I was most surprised when bobby greeted me eagerly without biting me and stepped onto my hand to be taken out of his cage. Thought this is great so we talked the problem of him screaming. This was also easier than I thought. I moved Bobby's cage nearer to where we all sit to watch TV. This alone made a big difference, so we went through the instructions in the e-book on how to stop screaming and I'm most impressed. Bobby is now very well behaved and a real charmer, so I would recommend Rachel's training course to all parrot lovers. If I could do it as a first time owner then any one can. We are now teaching bobby tricks and he loves it."

"I am using the training course on my 17 week old Macaw. We are doing very well. I have had birds for years but still am finding your ways to work well. I am pleased with your course and could recommend it to other bird owners. A lot of the ways I had been told to use before didn't work with other birds I have had. Thanks for a lot of new knowledge."

"Think this Parrot Training course was a brilliant purchase!

I have never kept a bird before and purchased a Conure Parrot, after looking through the internet I discovered your training course and instantly purchased it.

It has been of great help to me especially the book (Parrot Behavior), this has given me so much information and already my bird is happy chirping away in his cage and will already take food from my hand.

The next step is trying to get him to step on my hand
(I'm awaiting the bites!)

I think this has definitely been a worth while purchase and is going to help me have many years of fun with my new friend.

Thank you very much."

Peter Gladdy

"At first I must admit I was a bit skeptical about the whole training program, but after reading through your books I do not regret a single penny that I spent! These books go in-depth on almost any subject regarding your parrot, and have answered all of my questions and given so much information. I now consider this information vital for any new parrot owner, all I can say is that it really does work and has probably saved me hundreds on unwanted veterinarian bills. Thank you so much and I cant wait until the next training book!"
