Ehm, I really don't spend a lot of time practicing. Usually I only practice some minutes (3 or so??) and then three times a day, highly?
It's very important to stop when they perform the best.. In this way, you can start at this level the next time you start practicing.  |

I think Sue is feeding him hand feeding formula--I've heard birds that are weaned like it as a treat (as long as they aren't just weaned)
Thanks! Yes I'm giving him handfeeding formula..  |

Have you tried the clicker training method with any of the other birds? If so, have you had any success?
Thanks..
I have tried the clicker with Zazu. And it works with him too, but cheering works great as well. The clicker is usually handy if you need to make a 'photo' of one moment..
I have also used it on Nenya, my dog.. Hehehe! |

I don't think it's been quite a year Sue, but 6 months anyway. And I STILL don't have it back Hubby is going over to step daughters house this afternoon & I'm going to remind him to GET IT for me  |

CathY: I am sooo glad the DVD found its way back to you! You have it at least, training will come!
John: I won't publish a book on training.. There are so many good books on the market! |

But Sue, your book would be the best book to buy. All the fluffies members would buy it and you could sign it.  |
