Would anyone be interested in trick tutorials?

[onamom]

Hi all! I've been getting a lot of questions lately on training and how I trained Ona to do this or that. This got me wondering if anyone would be interested if I wrote up training tutorials for some specific tricks? Of course I would need to post them with the caveat that I am not a professional bird trainer and everything is just my experience and what worked for me, etc. I love to record and take photos during training sessions so I have some really good documentation of how a trick progressed over time and what steps we took to get to the end product. Let me know if anyone is interested and I'll see what I can work up

Yes please! I’m always looking for new tricks to teach Mango.

Alrighty, I’ll see what I can put together.

Hello, I would definitely be interested in training tutorials.
Would you be able to do video clips? I work with my 7 month
old CAG, but it's not easy.

Ok all, here is the start with the first one up!

Hi guys! This is the start of a thread where I will write up some tutorials for tricks I've taught Ona. Disclaimer: I am not a professional bird trainer and these tutorials were written based on research and what worked for me. I am also not a perfect bird trainer and am always learning and...

They do take some time to put together so it will likely be a while before I write another.

That is such a great idea onamom!!! you should definitely do that.

That is such a great idea onamom!!! you should definitely do that.

Thank you! I hope it is helpful I will probably do one for basketball next since I think that is Ona's most popular trick. 🏀

LOL, I tried to make trick training videos with Salty, but basically, I show him the trick, and he just does it. There's no 'technique' involved. But remember, we have been doing trick training almost every night for over 7 years. Hundreds and hundreds of sessions. If your parrot is anything like him, once they know it is training time, they put their thinking caps on and just learn.

YESYESYES! I would love to see how you trained Ona!

 

[onamom]

YESYESYES! I would love to see how you trained Ona!

The first one is up here! https://www.parrotforums.com/threads/loren-onas-training-tutorials.100338/#post-1059194 Ona has no complaints about modeling for the demos because it means more attention for her!

Loren, this is an amazing idea! Sometimes it's hard to know where to start with training and this will be such a big help. Your work with Ona is incredible, thank you for sharing your knowledge!

Basketball is up!
