    Ginger's Parrot Rescue part-two

    During this highly educational segment of Bird Talk LIVE Online Ginger Duplisse of Ginger's Parrot Rescue shared tons of aviculture experience benefiting aviculturists and people thinking about having a pet bird world wide. Ginger is an AFA certified aviculturists and a graduate of Susan Friedman's behavior training. We talked about: Positive Reinforcement Training basic methods and methods Ginger has developed of her own. Using words instead of a clicker to train birds. Making bird training interesting so the bird is motivated and challenged. All actions with birds are a type of training whether positive or negative. Dealing with aggressive behavior successfully. Gender issues, my bird doesn't like men, or my bird doesn't like women. Birds are wild animals, not domesticated like dogs and cats. Senegal parrot issues specific to Senegals. They defend their tree in the wild to the death. In captivity Senegals choose who they like. Ginger recommends over-socializing young Senegals. Ginger's training process includes taking the birds food and water out of their cage at night. Listen and find out why. Senegals talk well like African Greys however most parrots don't talk. Listen and find out how you might have the better chance of having a talking parrot. Wing trimming. Ginger's birds are fully flighted except birds that came to the rescue unable to fly. Find out what fledging is and why it is important. Teach your bird to fly with perch training. Teaching birds to fly is one way of helping birds to be more like birds than pets. Helping our birds be more of a bird than a pet. Treat based training, right time of day to train birds. www.gingersparrots.org www.birdtalkradio.com http://birdtalkradio.airtime.pro http://www.facebook.com/kcbirdwhisperer

    Steve Martin President Natural Encounters part three

    During part three of the discussion with Steve Martin, President Natural Encounters; Animal Behavior Consultant we learned that parrot behavior in captivity is not associated with parrot behavior in the wild. Hormones influence behavior but do not determine behavior. 'Force Free' training is not 100% force free. There are behavior myths. Redirected aggression is often confused with other behavior 'labels'. Interacting with your bird shapes behavior. Adjusting antecedents. Building trust with your parrot. Body language is the bird's voice. Positive Reinforcement-what it really is. Steve also shared with the listening audience on Bird Talk LIVE Online from Kansas City that Natural Encounters have a parrot mentoring service so pet bird owners may learn how to train their bird with the behavior they always wanted. The service includes your mentor watching videos of you and your bird to determine how to proceed in adjusting behavior.  www.naturalencounters.com www.birdtalkradio.com http://birdtalkradio.airtime.pro
