Training my Alexandrine

[Louis]

Ok so i'm currently trying to train Louis.

So far he knows how to step up.

Which "trick" would you recommend to do next?
Like which is the easiest trick to teach a parrot?

I know all parrot's are different and all.
And i guess hes a quick learner, as he learned how to step up in a few days.

Just want some opinions to see which trick i should try next


Thank you

I would teach him to target... That will be a foundation for a lot of other tricks you might want to teach... Make sure the target training is very, very solid...

A good one I started with is shake hands. Because he's already stepping up I'm sure he'll pick it up quickly, when I put my finger out to Archie he put his foot up to step up, and instead I said shake hands and shook his foot. He's so smart how old is louis is he spesking yet?

Oh yeah, he knows target training.

Oh yea that sounds simple enough, well i got him in about August (this year), and the guy I bought him from said he was about 1 year.
He was aviary bred and wasn't in the greatest condition (missing tail feathers, dull colouring etc)

And yes he is starting to talk, he can say Hello and he laughs.

Also thank you,
Will try shake hands
