hi guys,

 

Havent been on the forums in a while but the good news is both my budgies have been successfully finger tamed.....turns out the shy one was easier to tame than the confident one so go figure LOL

 

 

Anyways just wanted to know what another training exercise could be following succesful finger taming??

 

my birds will happily sit on my shoulder or on the lounge while i go around the house....im very happy as i was concerned they would be very hard to train

 

 

any advice/stories would be great!

 

 

Cheers,

How about trying to get them to come to you on command. I trained mine to come by making a loud clicking noise, like you'd use to giddyup a horse.

Hi Frank.Good idea teaching recall, but could I suggest as budgies

easily pick up on vocals. You use proper words to call them as you

offer a treat. Just as with CLICKER training you don't want to

hear birds CLICKING all day long. Yours B.J.
