Quaker parrots are too adorable for my sanity. My husband and I have our hands almost full at the moment, but once we have the time and space, a quaker is being added to our flock.

I’m a retired dog trainer and love watching you work with birds using classic conditioning concepts. <br><br>I’ve got one tip for you to think about. When this person displayed awkward hand dexterity with clicker & treats asking for a step up, it reminded me what I teach and is an easy work around. Sometimes clients struggle with leaches, clickers and treats so I teach a “reward marker” and in essence it becomes the clicker when I don’t have one handy. I say YES - while I also CLICK (when in hand) - followed by treat reward. Sometimes I’ll get something when not “training” and then I’ll mark the behavior then have to scramble to get a reward quickly cuz I don’t always have treats on me! So it’s a verbal marker when we don’t have a clicker, as we always have our mouths with us but not always a clicker. <br><br>I so wish I could live with a bird. I’d love to fly them. I own bird dogs so it would be torture for them. That’s my favorite thing to watch you guys do is free flying.

Jamieleigh and Dave's advice is great, but the best part is when the bird gives its own opinions at the end.

My Quaker, Paco, doesnt like the perches at the vet's office so I trained him to lie on the scale at about 6 months old. I first started with being able to hold him, then progressing to laying on his back, then on the table, then on a scale. From what I remember (this was nearly 13 years ago), took about 2 weeks. All the vets & their techs have a good laugh on our first visit with them.
