Thank you!

Thank you

Tank u! (That’s how my little sis says it LOL)

Thank you for this it really helped!

Xxpuppygirl * no problem! I mainly made it for me to come back to during my research, but so glad to see it’s helping other people! :)

I just a fan

Belle I. It

Belle I. Good

Good job, Belle! I am so happy to read that for your canary and you. It's great that you are open to learning and deepening your love for your little one. :)

Wow! That’s awesome! Hope your little feathered friend lives a happy and healthy life! ❤️

HOW DID THEY ACCIDENTALLY STEP ON HIM?????!??!?!??!

Why would you give up a pet if you accidentally stepped on it? I don't see the connection but anyways I'm glad he has a happy home now 🙂

@@connie2285 I've almost accidentally sat on my bird at least twice now. They're very small birds, and I can definitely see how someone could accidentally step on a bird if the bird was on the ground and the person wasn't aware/watching where they're walking. Although that doesn't really explain how they'd wanna give them up after that.

@@funkyfreakyandfabulous9743 They probably didn't trust themselevs anymore and wanted the bird as safe as possible

Ya it can happen. My dad accidentally stepped on my baby bird when i was young. Nd when i came home from school. She wasnt there to greet me. (Usually she fly towards me). My moms eyes were all puffy and red. I asked why. She told me that my baby bird died. I didn't believe it. But she was laying in her cage frozen. I cried so hard. And i never leave my bird around my dad anymore. Coz if you leave your birds around careless people they'll accidentally step on them. And in most cases birds will die coz they are really fargile.

Bird: The prettiest bird in the world Also bird: *Unzips pants*

Open your eyes look up to the sky and SEEEEEEEE!!!

Bird: Caught in a landslide no escape from reality

@@vixtion9180 %'-D wee Birdie pantz of course lol

Mackenzie Robinson I know I’m a bit late, but I can tell you one thing. Make sure you set up their cage and are comfortable with it BEFORE you bring them home. Even get food and water ready before you put them in the cage. They need at least a few days to adjust to their new environment, no cage set up.

me too

Mackenzie Robinson Agreed with the person above. Make sure the cage is not small and that the bird has a partner, because it is very dangerous for them not to have one.

@Mayor Cherry Me and my sister are thinking of getting a Parrotlet and I've heard that you can't put two of them in the same cage.

@@bonniesim115 i'd say if you plan on getting two because you don't have enough time for extra enrichment, they need to have lived in the same cage at the rescue/pet store/breeder etc.

Roosters have attitude 😂

I LOVE ROOSTERS

Im scared of roosters. better with 10 hungry lions than a rooster.

Mimi Kage im going to try this...thanks.

What kind of wood do you use?

That sounds so cool

@@maddythibodeau2428 Not all wood is bird safe. I would advise to do some research.

Lol

@Master Yoda Um...people can call themselves parrot mom or parrot dad all they want. Who are you to say they can't? Your personal opinion doesn't have to be shared by everyone.

@Master Yoda how though?

this is exactly what she's saying about reading their body language! they aren't -mean-, they don't -want- to pick a fight. if we "listen" to what they're telling us, things will be great. it's only when we ignore what they're saying/doing that they need to get aggressive.

tzxazrael haha I’d get like that too if nobody would listen to me

Zetta Thurow Dont worry about it. Pet store employees are not very well trained for the big responsibility they have to undergo. Do your research and keep trying harder! What kind of dog (bird) do you have just asking

@@katieb8717 hi I need some help with my parrotlets, I’m really scared of them. One of them always tries to bite me and has a really sharp beak and the other one is calm. Any tips?? :( ❤️

Part of why pet stores have no business selling live animals. The other part being that their animals come from mills...

I work at one and I can definitely tell you they’ve only trained and taught me very little about their care and how to handle them for customers. I wouldn’t blame the associates, just the stupid companies. People really need to be responsible themselves and do their research as well if they truly want one and can’t just rely on one person from a stupid store, but some of us also try our best to learn on our own time. It’s a sensitive debacle but they need effort from all ends. It’s the crazies that just want something cute and don’t care to think about what they’re doing and then they get mad at us for something they should’ve thought about. We get idiots that scream at us because their two male bettas killed each other. That’s what pisses me off.

@@zenitiv7 i have the same problem too with one of my parrotlets😭😭 did you make any progress?

I guess...... You should have a lot of perches close to each other and make them as low as possible so when they might miss the perch they don't have the worst o falls. Also be with him a lot so he does not spend a lot of time in his cage and supervise him we you give him or her a new to to see if it safe for him

Hanna Baptista I would suggest also trying to make some ladder style toys or the like where they can easily and safely climb if you get a high cage( idk if this is good type for your bird but their are some cages that are more horizontal then tall but I would check the specs first so it's not to small)

you could put the bird in a really low cage or just layer the bottom with something soft so it doesn't hurt itself when it falls

Just get him a quadcopter to fly around on....lol

Many perches and maybe a platform cause my bird is disabled too and he likes to sleep on it

LadyDynamitez yeah

Flock-Talk hey is see you has a parakeet cage back der, can you do a vid on the parakeet?

Shadow Light lmfao there is a canary named flippy in there not a parakeet and he is very happy

BestBetta .... I feels liek an idot

Shadow Light lmao it's ok I think your a new subscriber lol

Nervously laughs in pandemic

nervously laughs in child

I’m so glad the little guy is with you now! I hope they flourish with you!

@@FlockTalk hello again 6 month later... He is doing better now. He is not afraid to new things in his cage, he come to my head when he wants and he play with my hair and earings. Now I am working with him to be not afraid to hands and to come to me when I call me. Love your channel

So exciting! Happy to hear of their progress!

Wink Wink yes

Yes please -- I am on ZooMed's site and their specs do not match the ones you provided, unfortunately. can you let us know if the one on zoomed is actually any good? I would love to get my parrotlet a new bulb. zoomed.com/avian-sun-5-0-uvb-compact-fluorescent/

Katie Papp zoo med is also a good brand for avian light but try to search her light bulb up on amazon

Julianna Smith I have had 4 birds of different species that i have been taking care of for two years and I can help you. You should DEFINITELY change its diet. You can try online articles but here is a short sum of what i have learned. First of all, try to give some fruit. It's sweet and it could help your bird transition to eating healthier in a smooth way and it could help your bird understand that you're trying to give it a new type of food. Now for the vegetables. You can spray seeds or the birds favorite kind of food or fruit juice all over it. When they eat the seeds they'll taste the vegetables. You can also try to chop the food into different shapes or sizes. Try variety. Also, you can present the new foods in different ways, such as putting it in the food bowl, hanging it in the cage, on a clip inside the cage... ect. Good luck!!!!

x XingX x thank you so much for your help I did about 8 hours of research after I watched this video and found out that in the uk there is a brand that sells pellet food for small parrots (parrotlets was a exsample on the package) they are exspensive but I wanted the best I could give him. As for with the vegetables I have improved his variety I give him as before he came to me he'd never had any but now he has spinach, carrot, peas, beetroot, apples, grapes etc I try different things all the time now and he's enjoying all the different things he can try. He also now has a massive cage and I coming out of his shell so much more anyway thanks for the helpfull information xx

Julianna Smith You're welcome!

That’s unfortunate

You should keep your hand in the cage for about twenty minutes, and when they get on your hand, hand feed them, pet them, and play with them

Was your baby bird eating and drinking normally? Some breeders sell them far too young . For me to allow my babies to go they must be fully independent and I still keep them in a separate cage from their parents for a few weeks just to make sure. Plus baby parrotlets are an absolute joy to watch hatch and grow into such a cute , sassy bird , I just don’t wanna let them go.

I’ll get mine after I go to highschool. What happened by the way?

Sure you should spend as much time with your bird as possible

@@kettelwellchildren1302 okay thank you for replying

Thanks

Hector Valles I just keep my cage door open so if they want to get out they can

Hector Valles you should see if your cocktiels would let you touch them if they do leave the cage door open and see if they want to come out if not you should give them some more time

katelyn thats is a LOT of information

Mix veggies with his seeds and slowly reduce the amount of seeds

That’s super exciting!

Budgies are very social birds, it is best if you get them a friend to hang out with them, but make sure the cage is big enough for more than one.

So no, it is good to have them in one cage (if it is big enough) , but don't get a nesting box if you get a male and female, unless you are ready for budgie babies :P

Mehdi Akbarpour budgies should never be kept alone

Have you done research.....

Usually no you cam put them in the same cage but ofc it depends on if the birds can get along

Hi Flock talk!! I have a similar question. I was wondering if this applies to lovebirds! :)

Little Lili me to! Would this apply to cockatiels?

Little Lili it would be the same but slightly different for cockatiels

yeah i'd like to know if this applies to budgies i have two

Little Lili it does apply to budgie except you can put budgies together if you want more information please contact me on my channel in the comments I will answer all your questions

Flock-Talk so I have had plans of getting birds for about a year now. I have read that lovebirds can be very "socially needy". however I have also read that they can be aggressive and shouldn't be caged together. what should I do if I want my birds to be happy and active if I have work for most of the day?

***** thank you so much for the useful information. One last question. If I want to get a decided cage much like the one you have, do you have any suggestions?

Well did you find out? I’m in the same situation here lmao

Bailey Snyder Give it time. Try hand feeding them, don't pick them up if they keep running away from you, DONT CHASE THEM. You can ruin your relationship with them. You can start by talking to your birds, then put your hand at the opening of the cage, leave it there for like 20 minutes. Take it out, do the same tomorrow while holding millet or treats. Eventually they will know you are not a threat.

Henrik Persson u know how to use google?

u know how to use your brain and stop being annoying and maybe answer my question?? thanks

Jesus christ, why do you think I'd know such things? I don't even have a bird. That's why I asked if you know how to use google, because it's a lot easier and faster than waiting 4h+ for an answer lol. Damn you need to calm down.

im calm i promise, but answering like that and make me look stupid.

and if you didnt know it Why did you Even reply in The First Place? ??

Alex Quintanilla no

Alex Quintanilla no i don't think so but if you have two together they might become mates.

Alex Quintanilla not exactly, but love birds so best with one or more pals, they are a loving flock birds!

Alex Quintanilla if you don’t pair them, make sure they get plenty of attention... When I can’t play with mine every day, I stick her cage next to my sisters budgie so she has someone to talk to until I get back home. They get bored quick

She’s actually sitting on my thumb while I type this, because I was gone all day at work, and she’s playing with my phone case.

Tomgirl I don't know what's happening but try taking them to the vets

Xxcrafty Corns101 he's fine now, think it was being in a cage... Since letting him out much calmer thanks anyway.

You welcome

Windows can stress out birds since they cant figure out how to get outside
