Smart bird ;-) I think cupcake is 6 months too. I am learning cupcake shake hands they seem to pick up on it good. I am still trying to get her to do the kiss. Whats the best tip on that I also like the treat too ;-)

Yeah, its actually quite amazing how quickly they pick things up. It only took about 2 days to teach him how to shake. As for the kisses, All we did was say 'kiss' then put our nose up to his beak. after a while he'd walk over and lean in to kiss us first :D When he was learning we found it was easier to get a kiss from him if he already has something in his mouth (a toy)... hopefully this will help you :)

For some reason he absolutely loves cotton tips... but thankfully he never eats them, just chews and spits them all out
