Luckily the red-bull one looks fake. The can looks really light so we can only hope that the owner washed out the can thoroughly and was playing a prank by videoing the bird playing with the empty can. As for the beer one... that looked pretty real! :mad:

I really feel bad for the life that bird has to live:

The poor bird is practically in his mouth when this is going on. They don't call it budgerigar for no reason... :?

I'm not anti-wing clipping per se, but this appears to be an absolutely horrible clip job on these birds. Seems like they would drop like rocks if they fell off their perch.

The owner might not have been the one who did the actual clipping, but whoever did is pretty "idiotic" in my book.

These videos were quite disturbing! Either these people are just ignorant about the seriousness of mammal saliva being toxic for birds or they're just plain stupid! Thank you for posting these. Some people out there don't know about such issues and need to be taught or have their birds removed from their home.

I couldn't finish the mouth related videos, made me feel too sick to my stomach. I did watch the ceiling fan video, how horrible! That's one good way to scare the bird. And what if it waited a few more seconds before it flew off and it was moving faster? It could have hit the poor thing! The way some people treat their birds is simply horrifying.
