For all you fans out there that have been watching my updates of training with my African Grey, Bean… I won’t have any updates for you until next Tuesday, as I had to take a 3 day business trip to California for a seminar.
I’ll keep you posted with how’s he’s doing when I get back into town. I miss the little guy and can’t wait to get back to training him some more and seeing more progress.
He’s doing awesome at overcoming his fear of my hands with the use of targeting… and I promise I’ll have video to show you soon.
Cheers!

Have no problems with my birds screaming. Reviewing the last package sent, haven’t tried the mailbox gig yet.

I have 2 love birds who are only a few months old and have been with me 5 weeks now. I am taking things slowly with them as I am disabled. I have taught the male (Dec) to sit on a perch nearest to me and stay there without moving away whilst I put my hand in cage to change the water and seed. The female (Ant) stays on her swing and not cling to the cage bars at the back anymore whlst I’m changing water and seed now too. They listen to my voice and are at ease with me.
There are pretty well behaved, but late in the evening they both start to chirp on high pitch sound just when my husband Jim and myself are trying to watch tv programs around 9:00 or 10:00 o’clock at night.
They are situated in a middle porch between our lounge, kitchen, bathroom and bedroom so that they can see us from nomatter where we are. But this is the only place we have for them but they are very happy there.
It’s just that I can’t quieten them in the late evening as we start to watch our favourite programs CSI, NCSI, and CIS NEW YORK.
Can you advise me on what I could do about this please as I have not taken any action yet as I don’t want to ruin the bond between my love birds (Ant and DEC) and myself.
Yours Sincerely Kath Beadle from Hull, England.

by herself in the morning when we let them out to fly the father bird will scream bloody murder until we take the lone female out of the room. he will sit on her cage and scream at her
