Hello guys I am new here and I need some advice. My :budgie: was biting very hard yesterday, But today I taught him to step up and to jump on my shoulder. I am very happy :D . I watched every video of Michael about parrot training but I dont know what I should teach him first.

You should probably start with targeting as most birds can pick it up quite quickly and you can use it to help teach many other behaviors. :)

I did not specifically teach mine. They learned like little kids and it gets really funny when they say and do things for the first time.

My daughter tried to teach Myrtle to play dead. She does not. Instead she plays injured.

Rambo got closed in the bathroom. He yelled, "Momma come're hurry hurry quick quick pick me up RIGHT NOW".
