I don't spend a lot of time on trick training either, although I might do more of it at some later date. Up to this time, I have concentrated on building a good relationship with my birds as they all were either neglected to varying degrees or outright abused. Kiki, my Senegal is the only one that I have that is actually ready to focus on trick training at this point. If I do start any trick training it would probably just be contact tricks that would help to build more trust in preparation to harness training. In this past month she has begun to refuse to step off of me by asking for more head rubs. It I so cute, the way that she does this as she literally shoves her head under my fingers like a little bulldozer pushing dirt. She is so proud of herself when she succeeds in getting to remain on me for a few extra minutes.
