Amazing GCC!

[Calace]

Has anyone else seen these videos on You Tube of little Chibi's Tricks? There are a whole series of them. I think this one is particularly incredible as he matches the colours! [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n4xmRnVwUsw]???????HD? Chibi Tricks - Bird Tricks - YouTube[/ame]
I don't think I've seen a GCC do this many complex tricks. Obviously a lot of time invested in training this one! He's so cute and VERY clever!

Parrots are smart. However, I am not a expert on how to train them to do things like this.

That is incredible! I never new Conures could do could do color tricks. Sadly, I wouldn't even know where to start with teaching Chico those kinds of tricks.

Definitely impressive ... but we should all remember that this is not at all the norm and requires an incredible amount of commitment and time from the owner. One can still have a fulfilling and wonderful experience owning a parrot even if the parrot doesn't do even a single trick on command! (Sometimes I think videos like this, because they are so compelling, actually end up doing more harm than good.)

Personally I see it as inspiring. I love watching stuff like this.

Obviously it's not the norm and takes a lot of time and effort, thus my post! I can see the point you are making, but I think that the members of this forum are intelligent enough to realise that this is an extraordinary example of time and commitment and I think we can safely say we all love our fids regardless of they ability to perform tricks!
