All three ringnecks

Got a video of all three ringnecks (Anikin, Archimedes, & Devri)--i am just messing around with them and spoon feeding them before bedtime. I spoon feed them in case they ever need meds from a vet--then there will be no need to restrain them :wink: Besides, it's a great way for me to give them their extra vitamins & calcium, play the positive reinforcement game, and get a good laugh --and they think it's junk food...ha ha ha ha :lol: :lol: 8)

I had a huge smile on my face through the whole video.
Even bigger smile at the little one on the left doing pirouette over and over and over. :lol:

Ha ha ha! That's my boy Archimedes--he is always so eager to play these "fun" games--he really enjoys it. It's Anikin who refuses to play--he acts so pompous and arrogant--i swear he thinks his ring is a crown..ha ha ha ha ha :lol: :lol:

Thanks Tasha:)

Hi Imran

cool video. How long did it take to teach him that?

By the way, all very nice looking birds.

Regards

Shane

I loved the video Imran. Thanks for sharing. What smart, beautiful, healthy birds. The feeding from a spoon training is a great idea. I'm trying to train ours to be happy when being held in a towel to prepare for vet's visit but I'm finding it slow going.

It's Kaytee Exact:) I give them that for treats as it's filled with wonderful nutriants that can benefit them even though they are grown. I have always done that. I will take some mashed carrots too and they love that--but when warm. I want to be sure to give them their Vitamin A as most pet parrots don't get enough of this and calcium. So Kaytee Exact has so many nutrients plus more. Hope that helps:)

Best Wishes,
