Put parrot biting behind you

August 31st, 2010

Dear Parrot Lover,

Does your parrot often mistake your fingers for his chew toy? Have you often asked yourself ‘Why’?

Whenever a parrot owner has been bitten by his or her parrot, they immediately start to distrust their parrot and slowly start to reduce the amount of time that they spend with their parrot. The parrot, on the other hand, sees this distance as a reason to defend himself and will become quite territorial.

It is obviously best to not let things escalate to this point. Be being positive and having lots of patience it is quite easy to turn a biting parrot into a sweet and cuddly one.

The first thing you should do is to learn how to interpret your parrot’s body language as this will give you clues as to when, and why, your parrot will bite.

In most cases, parrot owners don’t give their parrots the freedom to choose and will actually, unknowingly, force their parrot to do something that they simply do not want to do. So, the parrot bites their owner as a way of telling them that.

This is often the case when a parrot owner wants their parrot to step off of their shoulder after they’ve been there quite a while, and their parrot doesn’t want to leave their nice high perch and so bites the fingers that are intruding on their ‘branch’.

Common reasons that Parrots bite are:

Fear

Frustration

Reaching Adolescence

Molting Feathers

Protecting their cage/toys/favorite person

Jealousy

It is best to learn how to read the subtle behavior signs that parrots exhibit as a way of forewarning you that he is preparing to bite you. Once you are able to easily recognize these signs, not only will you be able to better understand your parrot’s behavior, but you will also be able to identify the triggering factors that precede a painful bite. Of course knowing all this will also help you in preventing your parrot from actually biting you ever again.

Such warning signs include your parrot pinning his eyes or fluffing out his feathers. Never ignore these signs. If you do, your parrot will most undoubtedly bite you, and you will either flinch and/or scream in pain.

Because parrots love comedic antics, they will quickly learn that if they bite you, you will ‘reward’ them with a performance.

Learning to understand your parrot’s behavior will help you to forge a better, loving and trusting relationship with your parrot that will last for many years to come.

Most parrot owners know how ferocious parrots can become as they age. Great care and lots of love just aren’t enough because there are reasons parrots bite, and if you don’t know the reasons and the tricks necessary to change their behavior, you and your parrot are stuck.

Chet Womach is a specialist at helping people fix parrot behavior problems. He has owned parrots since he was 10 years of age, and knows firsthand how parrot behavior can change with age. Fortunately for other parrot owners, Chet decided to develop an incredibly powerful and effective Taming, Training and Tricks System.

No Pre-Trained Birds

When Chet first started his research on bird training, he noticed that all the videos he saw used pre-trained birds! The trainers demonstrate techniques on trained birds, so the viewer never gets to see what the birds were like before the training, and, most importantly, the challenges that come up in the training process.

Chet’s work is truly amazing. He filmed hours and hours of training sessions in which he tried all kinds of things to get the results he was after, including techniques used on different kinds of animals. When something didn’t work, he had to adapt and invent.

Click here to receive any or all of these amazing, groundbreaking training videos.

Ultimately, he created a refined and proven parrot training system that gets results during the first training session and produces drastic bad behavior changes in as little as 48 hours. Chet’s system is based on parrot instincts, not smarts, so it works on any species of bird and doesn’t require high intelligence. You won’t need any other source of advice.

Stop talking about teaching your parrot to talk

August 16th, 2010

Dear Parrot Lover,

Teaching your parrot to talk is much easier than you think! All parrots have talking ability - it just takes a lot of patience and knowledge on the part of their owners to help them realize their full talking potential.

Unlike cats and dogs, parrots are so intelligent that they can even understand and repeat certain words very quickly. In fact, most parrots even have the ability to use such words at appropriate times as well.

If your parrot has already picked up a few words that he has heard you speak around the house on his own, you may want to train him to respond verbally to questions that you ask him. This will steadily increase their vocabulary. However, first you should teach him to imitate the desired response or answer first. Engaging your parrot in a conversation is a great way to help keep his mind as stimulated as possible.

When trying to teach your parrot to talk, you should introduce a new word to your parrot by speaking it aloud and then by using it in various sentences and phrases, as this will help your parrot to hear the word being repeated in different contexts.

Whenever your parrot repeats the word back to you, immediately give him plenty of praise!

Having a conversation with your parrot can be lots of fun, but it is best to stick with chatting back and forth with him about things that are important to your parrot, such as food and his toys.

As soon as you feel that your parrot knows and understands the correct response, you can then start a conversation with your parrot by asking him the question that will ultimately lead to the word or phrase answer that he now knows. Be sure to reward your parrot whenever he says the correct answer.

Parrots will learn vocalizations over a period of time - to speed things up be sure to clearly pronounce your words so that your parrot can easily pick up on the sounds.

Remember to congratulate your parrot as often as possible and give him a nice treat whenever he attempts to say the correct response. Food can be used as a great reward! No parrot can refuse a tasty treat, just be sure not to withhold your parrots food altogether as that is considered animal abuse.

You can continue with this training until your parrot responds with the correct answer every time that he is asked the specific question. Teaching your parrot to talk this way can be challenging for both you and your parrot. Just don’t give up and keep practicing patiently.

Don’t waste your parrot’s time

August 3rd, 2010

Dear Parrot Lover,

Who can resist owning a pretty, intelligent creature like a parrot or other little bird?

The numbers of households that have pet parrots are increasing every day. However, as popular a pet as parrots are becoming, owners still are not 100% sure how to properly care for their parrot.

A very common mistake that every new parrot owner makes, even before they have brought their new pet bird home, is to purchase the incorrect cage. An easy way around this is to simply remember to purchase the biggest cage that you can possibly afford for your new parrot. But, be careful - the cage you finally select will have to have bar spaces that are not too wide, as your parrot might be able to get their head or feet stuck between the bars.

The cage should also be wide and tall enough so that when your parrot turns around inside with his wings outstretched, none of his feathers touch any part of the cage walls.

Inside the cage should always be at least three perches - all with different diameters, as well as 5 distinctive types of toys to keep your parrot amused, as well as stimulated.

Parrots need to have access to clean, pure water and should have their water bowls changed whenever they become dirty - some parrots love to dunk their food into their water so be sure to throw it out as soon as you can to avoid harboring bacteria in their water dish.

During the hot summer months, it is important that your parrot be given the opportunity to bathe himself. You can do this by placing a small bird bath or bowl on the bottom of his cage for him to bath in. If this is not possible, or if you’d prefer to monitor your birds bathing, you can fill a spray bottle with water and use it to spray a gentle mist on your parrot - this is perfect if you have a larger parrot such as a Macaw or Cockatoo.

Another vital mistake that parrots owners make is in not learning about their parrot’s specific dietary needs. All pet birds require a special diet that is fortified with nuts, seeds, grains, pellets, fruits, and vegetables. Be careful not to choose a commercially prepared bird seed/pellet mix that contains a lot of brightly colored pellets. This is because those multi-colored pellets actually contain sugared food coloring that is harmful to birds when eaten in large quantities.

Don’t forget to give your parrot plenty of exercise outside of their cage, preferably on a play stand, for at least 2 hours every day.

Long parrot life is possible—not guaranteed

July 21st, 2010

Dear Parrot Lover,

There are just as many parrot owners than there are dog and cat owners in the world today. However, not every parrot owner knows how to properly raise their parrot.

One of the first mistakes that a new parrot owner will make is that they will fail to purchase the right sized cage for their parrot. New parrot owners should adhere to a very simple rule: buy the biggest cage that you can afford for the size of your parrot. Do not buy a Macaw-sized cage if you have a Conure. Make sure that your parrot will have plenty of space inside the cage so that when he turns around on his perch; neither his outstretched wings nor his tail feathers touch either side of the cage. Also make sure that the bar spacing is not too wide, as you don’t want your parrot to get his head or toes stuck.

Remember to add at least 3 different size perches inside your parrot’s cage, and 5 different kinds of toys for your parrot to enjoy. It is also a good idea to purchase a parrot cage that is easy to clean as it will need to be thoroughly washed and sanitized at least once a week.

Once you have your parrot’s cage set up, you will need to remember to provide your parrot with fresh, clean water daily. Also, since all parrots love bathing, you should either place a large water dish inside your parrot’s cage for him to bathe in, or use a spray bottle and gently mist him with water.

Proper avian nutrition includes a diet mix of pellets, seeds, nuts, fruits, vegetables and grains. Be careful not to feed your parrot too many colored pellets as these contain sugared food coloring that can be harmful to your parrot in large quantities.

Avoid feeding your parrot the following toxic foods as they can kill him:

Chocolate

Avocados

Rhubarb leaves

Alcohol

Caffeine

Salty foods

Fatty foods

Raising your parrot properly means allowing your parrot to play outside of his cage for at least 2 hours every day. You should also give your parrot his own tree-stand or tabletop play gym and place it the family room for your parrot to play on when the family is home.

Give you parrot a concrete perch or place a cuttlebone inside his cage to help keep his nails and beak trim. Never try to clip your parrot’s wings or nails before you have asked your avian veterinarian to show you how to do it properly.

Parrots get sick easily. In fact, most parrots in captivity live just a few years! But many parrot diseases are 100% curable, if an owner can diagnose the disease and provide the right medication.

Improper diet drastically cuts parrot longevity (they CAN live up to 60 years if they have a proper diet).

Parrot toys should be fun—not dangerous

July 13th, 2010

Dear Parrot Lover,

Parrots are like 2 year old children - they need toys! Not only do the toys provide parrots with mental stimulation, but they also help teach a parrot to forage and amuse themselves.

For those parrots who are deemed to be ‘destruct-o-birds’, i.e. those parrots who attempt to chew up and destroy your upholstery, curtains, etc, the instant that they are allowed free flight in the home, it is imperative to understand the importance of parrot toys. In fact, if you have one of these ‘destruct-o-birds, go and take a quick peek inside your parrots cage. How many toys do you see? What kind of toys are they? What condition are these toys in?

Parrots need a minimum of five toys in their cages. Each toy should have a different color, use and texture. One of the best types of parrot toys is a foraging toy. In the wild Parrots forage for their food and in your home, foraging can be an easy way to keep your parrot’s mind stimulated and his beak busy. With foraging toys you can place your parrot’s favorite treats inside, and then let your parrot have a go at trying to figure out how to get to their treats.

Don’t forget that all parrots love puzzle toys! These toys can keep your parrot happily occupied for hours. Also keep in mind that some parrot toys are designed to be chewed up, so do not be too surprised when your parrot has completely destroyed one of his toys.

There are many health and psychological benefits for having lots of toys in a parrot’s cage. But toys can also be placed on your parrot’s play-stand; foot toys can be given to your parrot to play with whenever he is out of his cage.

A parrot toy offers a much better alternative to your parrot than chewing on your furniture. Such parrot toys also give your parrot safe items to investigate, instead of exploring any dangerous household item. However, if you do see that your parrot has become overly interested in an item that they should not have, quickly give your parrot one of his toys to play with as this will be a perfect distraction. Always give your parrot lots of praise when they are playing with their toys, as this will help them understand that playing with their toys gets them lots of attention.

Every parrot has a desire to chew on something, and some toys are able to provide that relief much more than other toys. However, there are also many other different types of toys for parrots, such as swings and boings, shredable toys and puzzles.

The last thing you think of when you see parrot toys at the pet store is POISON. So you make a selection, thinking of how much fun your parrot is going to have.

But, those recent stories about tainted pet food from China that killed dogs and cats because of melamine fillers and the recalls of lead-containing toys from China are WARNINGS. Some manufacturers, under competitive pressure and a lack of scruples do not put life and safety first.

It would be unrealistic to expect owners of pet supply stores to research the safety and quality of every product they carry, or to be aware of the mile long list of “common toxins” that affect sensitive parrots.

Have you failed in training your parrot?

June 17th, 2010

Dear Parrot Lover,

Unfortunately for some parrot owners, having a Parrot who bites is a way of life for them. They are constantly on guard and fearful that their Parrot will snap and lunge at them whenever he or she feels like it. This makes them nervous around their Parrot - which their Parrot will pick up on and will, in turn, be nervous around their owners. Nervous parrots bite….and so the cycle begins.

However, it doesn’t have to be this way at all!

The hardest step in training your parrot to not bite is to overcome your own fear of your parrot. Once an owner has been bitten by their parrot, it can be quite hard for them to trust their parrot to not bite them the next time they approach their parrot. Try to remain calm and confident whenever you are interacting with your parrot. Keep in mind that if you are nervous around your parrot, he or she will sense that and will be nervous as well; and a nervous or scared parrot can become aggressive very quickly and may bite purely out of protection, whether or not you meant any harm.

The next step in training your parrot to not bite is to understand your parrot’s behavior so that you can avoid ever being bitten again. Parrots are very intelligent creatures and as such, have their own unique way of communicating with their owners; as well as having an innate ability to understand complex things better than any other companion animal.

Your parrot will mostly like exhibit a behavior that will tell you he or she is upset and may be getting ready to bite. Once you have learned which behaviors these are, not only will you be able to prevent your parrot from biting, but you will also be able to identify the triggers that lead up to a bite.

A good example of this type of warning behavior is your parrot fluffing out his or her feathers and/or pinning their eyes.

It is important to heed these warning signs. If you do not and do get bitten, you will most probably flinch and scream from the shock and pain of being bitten. Now, because all parrots love a bit of drama, your parrot will love the reaction that you gave when you were bitten. Unfortunately, this means that be flinching and screaming you have now taught your parrot that if he or she bites you, they will receive a show and that they will be rewarded for the bite with your comedic antics and loud screams.

Remember that whenever your parrot does bite you, gently reprimand them with a stern ‘No Bite!”.

Your parrot can’t wait to talk to you

May 11th, 2010

Dear Parrot Lover,

Birds, especially Parrots, have the inherit ability to love their caretakers - you!

But they also have another inherit ability - to learn words and phrases! In effect, parrots can learn to talk.

Have you ever heard a parrot talking? Isn’t it the most amazing thing you have ever heard? Parrots truly are amazing animals simply because, unlike other household animals, they can be taught to new words and concepts that will help them express themselves to their human families more clearly.

However, parrots need to learn how to talk properly and so they rely heavily on their loving and kind owners to teach them.

Forget about African Greys’ and Macaws’ being the only parrots that can talk. Any parrot can be taught to talk as long their owners know how to teach them correctly.

Parrot talking lessons should be conducted by someone who has a lot of love for the parrot, as well as a lot of patience too. Start teaching your parrot to talk by first showing enthusiasm for each word that you say to him. Quickly he will notice your obvious excitement and will start to pronounce those words all by himself.

Allow your parrot to practice those words on his own. Pretty soon, in his own time, he will have mastered those words and will be speaking them quite clearly.

One thing to keep in mind when conducting your parrot talking classes, is to try and avoid repeating words over and over again to your parrot. This will only confuse your bird and he will not learn anything.

A good idea is to use words and phrases to describe what you are doing. This way, your parrot will quickly make a physical association with the words that you are teaching him, such as saying ‘good night’ when you are covering your parrot’s cage at bedtime.

Pretty soon all your friends and neighbors will want to come visit you to see and hear your parrot talking!

Parrots Turn from Resisting Training
To Starting Conversations!

Birds Teach Birds

Parrots learn to talk 10 times faster when they hear words spoken by other parrots. Whatever the reason for this (maybe inter-flock communication?), it’s a discovery that Chet has incorporated into his latest training course.

Collecting tons of recordings of speaking birds from students who had used his earlier “Teach Your Parrot to Talk on Cue” course, Chet went through a lot of trial and error to figure out the combinations of word volume, time delay between words and clarity that are most effective. The resulting recordings, delivered as part of the new Parrot Speech Training System, are incredibly powerful.

No parrot can escape the skill of Chet Womach

April 28th, 2010

Dear Parrot Lover,

If you are like most parrot owners, you secretly wish to have a loving and trusting relationship with your pet parrot. But as much as you desire that, your parrot seems to have his own wishes - that of biting you, scratching you, pooping on you and maybe even screaming at you.

The secret here is to simply learn a few very important training tips and tricks to help you turn your mean pet parrot into a loving pet parrot.

Obviously the most important thing to keep in mind is to have plenty of patience with yourself and your parrot. Never raise your voice or shout at your parrot! This will only make things worse in the long run as you would have inadvertently taught your parrot that when he is naughty he will be rewarded with a show - meaning your comedic antics and high pitched voice! It is very hard to un-teach this to a parrot.

Also remember that you should never, under any circumstances, ever hit your parrot or throw things at his cage or play stand whilst he is on or in it. All birds are extremely fragile creatures and even the tiniest about of force can cause serious injury and even bring death to your bird. Physically abusing any parrot, such as taping them on their beak or pulling their tail feathers, can cause immense psychological problems for the parrot and will eventually lead to more aggression.

If you are upset at your parrot, try to loudly voice your disapproval. Rather try to keep your parrot’s training session short, sweet and to the point.

During a training session, try to be as comical as possible and overly pronounce words and phrases. Your parrot will be more attracted to your comedic antics and will actually learn faster because he will want to do whatever is appropriate in order to have you act that funny way again.

After every training session, no matter how well or poorly it ended, you and your parrot deserve a break from each. Be sure to gently place your parrot back inside his cage or on his play stand for at least 30 minutes before attempting another training session.

Another vital tip is to remember that just like individual people, parrots too have their own unique personalities; because of this some parrots will learn faster than other parrots of the same species. Do not take this too personally if this seems to be the case with your parrot. Just remember to be consistent with his training sessions and your parrot will eventually learn what is expected of him.
