He is super chatty now - in his own birdie chirping language, and sometimes whistles the wolf whistles, the cab call whistles and the sparrow whistles. He is especially noisy when there is a buzz of noise around him, like when he is on the towel rack during our showers - the sound of the water hitting the tub gets him going, or when the disposal and/or radio is on, etc. We are trying to teach him musical scales now and london bridge We are still waiting for him to talk. Every time we repeat "hello" or "i love you" or "pretty bird" his mouth opens and he sticks out his tongue, so we know he is paying attention, but no words yet.Anyway, so we think he is now comfortable with us enough to begin learning tricks. What is the most basic trick we can start with and how can we do it? Any suggestions? We've never taught tricks to a bird before... and Remy doesnt focus very well, he wants to always be on the move doing this and that and cant sit still for long. Sometimes he has a "focused face"
and when we see it we want to grab the opportunity to teach him a trick or two but dont know where to start? We'd love to teach him to turn around or hang upside down or flip on his perch like Ellie's birds... or wave or something... anything! but we dont know how to begin.Any suggestions and steps would be great!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I will try again, but sometimes, Remy just doesnt want to focus and squeaks at me instead when I'm withholding peanut. He keeps swiveling his neck around instead and gives me an exasperated look.
Sorry, there is probably too much personal philosophy in the post to make it valid now ;p
