Exactly the title. I know recall training is essential, but I keep quitting after a month or two because even skipping recall for one day makes my brain go "nope, this is easier" so I stop. I need some tips.
Thank you for the suggestions.Teach some flighted tricks? Those are pretty fun to watch as well as train. You could also try filming your birds in flight and see if you can get some good footage (if you like videography).
Iโm not training for free flight (I wish), Iโm training so that if anyone escapes again it will be much easier to get them. I am also training for the birds sake, they do not get enough exercise and have become somewhat lethargic.You don't need to do recall everyday, unless you're training for freeflight or something
InterestingI do different positions to change things up....heres me in a recliner calling you, heres me on the floor calling you, heres me in anouther room calling you. Best i got.
Can't you just call them over to you when you go into the room? I don't spend ten minutes a day calling my birds or anything and they have decent recall. I also have mine in one room so I can't call them around the house. If I have a new toy, or something is happening outside or I just can't see them then I'll call them. I think I'd get bored if I tried calling them over and over in a training session , and I know they would too. In fact I have done that in the past and their recall got worse as it was something they got very bored of.Iโm not training for free flight (I wish), Iโm training so that if anyone escapes again it will be much easier to get them.

I canโt just โcall them overโ, they live in their own room since Iโm allergic to them. And I donโt have a bedroom so bringing them in there wouldnโt work either. I try to go in their room a couple times a day to say hi and clean the room and feed them.
