ohokk thanks heaps hahah i wasnt sure how you got them to understand the clicker and that its leading to a reward but that makes a lot more sense now :) I find my bird loves apples and grapes the most but she usually eats everything i give to her. i ended up leaving the strawberry in her cage with h...

ive read so many posts and watched so many videos on target training but no one really shows or tells about how they started off teaching their bird how to do it... today i got a clicker because ive read so many good things about them... i then got my bird, the stick, the clicker and some treats and...

ever since i got indy she has had trouble with her wing the smallest bump makes her wing bleed. i dont know what to do anymore everytime i think its getting better something always happens and it bleeds again. it started off with her wings being cut way to short by the place i got her from and shes ...

yeah thanks for the advice (: ive decided to just buy another cage but this one will just be for outside so i can sit out there with her and not have to worry bout her getting away

i always see amazing photos people have taken of their birds outside exploring and it always makes me want to take Indy outside and just let her explore and maybe get some nice photos too. but i always worry that it might be hard to get her back inside. she is only semi tame and she is still fairly ...

it was meant to be heading right for us but then it went down south a bit more so we didnt get as much of it as we thought we would. yeah they werent taking pets and we were bout to go to a evacuation centre and then we heard they were packed and best to just stay in your house if you could so we en...

most the vets near me mainly just specalise in cats and dogs which is a bit silly... i ended up finding two vets close by that would look at indy and wouldnt charge me a lot of money for it. i think one of the main things that makes most pets feel very uncomfortable are trips to the vets even when w...

when i took her to the vets he held out her wing and there was a chunk of flesh actually missing ): so she was on antibiotics for 7-10 days just so she didnt get an infection but i can really see how much shes improved she uses it a lot more. then later my mum rang up the pet shop i got her from and...

hey ive had Indy for 2 weeks and 4 days, yes for some reason i am counting :lol: i got her from a pet shop where she had not been given much attention so she was 'on special' because she was starting to bite and was going a bit feral but now she doesn't bite and has improved a lot. anyways my questi...

yeah i felt like crying when i heard her screaming and knowing it was me who chose to take her made me feel just that much worse but it had to be done.. and now her wing is better (: thats what i have found out to, when she is on pretty much anything higher then the ground she hates hands but when s...

ok thank you (: i just wasn't sure and was getting a bit worried

i wasnt sure where to put this question.. okay so it has now been one week and five days since i got Indy, progress is moving very slow now sometimes it even kind of feels like we're moving backwards ): but my main question is i never seem to be able to get Indy out of her cage lately i don't want t...

ok so next week i go back to school and Indy will be alone by herself for 5 hours every week day it isn't long but i guess its long enough for me to worry bout her. she does have toys in her cage but she doesn't seem interested in any of them. i've also noticed most toys are very expensive and most ...

oh wow thanks :D that helps a lot. yeah thats where i kind get confused i did so much reserach before i got Indy yet every site told you different things and then i get paranoid i'll feed her something and make her sick so i thought i should just ask and see what kind of responses i got. up in cairn...

i read so many things online about what to and what not to feed your IRN but they are usually not very helpful. Indy eats her seed mix and some fruit everyday, so far for the week shes been with me it has only been apples or grapes because on nearly every site i've read those were the two they love....

thanks for the advice (: when i first got Indy she was a bit of a bitter and scratcher but shes calmed down a lot (: i'm not sure if this will help Joanie but when i got her if i was scared she'd bite she wouldn't go near me so i kind of had to trust her that she wouldn't. she also hates going on me...

hey i got my bub Indy about a week ago now (: shes made a lot of progress and i'm very proud of her. she will sit on me or any of my family with no problems. but she doesn't like people touching her or putting their hand near her.. i have heard it can take months or years depending on how much dedic...
