This will probably sound a little stupid, but... well, here I go.
I randomly began to wonder if putting on videos on birds getting petted and handled by their owners would have any effect on my ringneck. It's not that unusual for an animal of some intelligence to actually react to videos of certain things. This of course I'd guess, varies on the animal in question since they aren't all the same. While it may be a terrible example, playing videos of a panda couple mating has been used to put actual pandas "in the mood" so to speak.
I know that parrots have actually learned to imitate sounds they hear from videos and sounds and what not. I randomly got curious weather my bird seeing videos of other birds doing something specific would have any effect? I assume the response here may just be "try it!", since different creatures react differently to these things. Don't get me wrong - I don't harbor any ideas of "taking the easy way out" with parrot training I prefer to teach things to him myself, but I couldn't help but to wonder about this.
Should I try? Simo loves to see videos of other birds; his favorites seem to be a certain yellow ringneck and a loud cockatoo.
