Bite Pressure Training

kalypso123 · Aug 20, 2015

I was just curious about how to bite pressure train? There is not a large macaw in my near future unless there is a perfect situation. It would have to be a family bird if we got one and my parents are intimidated of the large beaks. They are fine with small birds and my mom loves african greys and other medium sized birds. So anyways, we are looking into a mini macaw. Specifically a Hahns, illingers, or maybe a severe. How would I bite pressure train them? :blue1:

Wait for birdman ..he's super helpful..I have a severe and we are doing the training, but he can explain it way better than me.

This post was pretty much directed towards him but I would like to hear any input.

Find a way to communicate to your bird that something is unpleasant, but without letting them make a game of it so they'll take you seriously.

And consistency goes a long way.

I have a post that is about bite pressure for amazons ( medium size bird). I believe Birdman and many other knowledgable member commented on it. go take a look.

Thank you Wendy.

Yeah. Not to be rude, but it seems like I've answered this one a few times.

It's posted. Do a search. You can only repeat yourself so many times...
