I thought the wonderful people of the parrot forum would be interested to know that my
Progression with Shyla is phenomenal, she targets in flight, retrieves almost perfectly, waves almost
Perfectly and recalls perfectly, All this in about 1 month and 2 weeks, I'm going to take a leap and try to teach the lay on back, she generally is a bird that has problems
Keeping still so I think this will be te hardest trick for her to learn but will be worth it and I have so much confidence in her, she picked up wave in about 5 minutes and now I'm adding a queue to it.
I feel my bond with her is the best it's been so far, after training sessions she demands kisses which is rare for the female eclectus since they have such horrible reputations but Shyla is the sweetest. What a reward it would be to have her completely trust me to have her lay on her back, I'm estimating 2-3 week learning time for her to lay on her back since it took about that long for retrieve. I could be wrong since she is picking up new tricks so fast.
Anyways, let me know what you guys think and any advice is welcome!
