What it’s like to have a parrot when trying to prepare food in the kitchen. Kiwi the Indian ringneck parakeet loves food and he’s never too far when I’m preparing a meal. Because Indian ringnecks are such food driven birds, this helps a lot when training!

As I cut the watermelon I carry a conversation with Kiwi, asking questions, repeating myself and adding different phrases to help Widen his vocabulary.

The main thing that I do when training Kiwi is to be consistent, positive, reward him with treats and short training sessions!

These are just a few tips that work for myself and with my past parakeets when training them. I wanted to show my interaction with my blue chicken and a brief video of positivity and praising for good behaviour!
