does trick training help w/ behaviors? does it help more if the parrot is fully flighted to learn? here's why i'm asking, i am starting to see some behaviors that i don't want to encorage. and i want to have all my birds flighted, but there are sopme iussues w/ that. 1. ppl i work for, & w/ are agienst letting birds being fully flighted unless they'r compleatly trained.,howdo you train them if they don't have full flight?? should i train them a wait or stay command? and my other question is for ppl w/ younger children & parrots... how do you get your kids involved in the training, and for ones that don't want to be involved how do u handle that? i started off on the wrong foot, i see that & want to correct the wrongs. i do like some of the ways i have learned & have instilled in my house hold. however others like free flight & trick training are ones i want to learn to use & mabey be able to show others that it's a good thing to leave ur birds flighted.
i have mostly conures, but 2 of them are young and i think it'll work. i know it takes time & dedication, which i have no problem with & belive it's a given when u get a parrot.
ok i know that's kindda a lot and sorry bout that, but it was all in my head @ once! around me personally,noone agrees w/ free/full flight,or knows much about trick training. they just concentrate more on hand tameness....
