Hello guys!
In today's video, I will share with you my experience on how I got my lovebird to
trust me.
During the one year of me being a friend with a lovebird, I learned a lot about its
behavior.
If you want your lovebird to love you and to trust you, then this video is for you.
You will learn the most important steps to follow in order that your little bird get
used to you, and most important, to be loyal.
Lovebirds are one of the best bird species for gaining their trust.
The amount of positive energy that little bird will give you back will make you feel
So if you clicked on the like button, then we can start.
In order to get your lovebird's trust, you will need to get in contact with bird.
First thing that you can do is to talk with her.
Don't be afraid to look stupid.
The bird will be engaged with your voice.
Also, you can try to do mimics.
In this way, your bird will get used to you and your voice.
If you will start with one young individual, it will be much easier to get in contact with
him.
For example, my Loki was one and half months old.
At this period, in the beginning, they are a little bit shy.
But soon enough, if you will take care to not scare the little bird, you will see how
she start to show curiosity.
The key for success is to not scream loud and to not make fast moves.
Just be as gentle as possible.
In the nature, lovebirds are prey, so every fast move from you will scare the ---- out
of your bird.
Smooth moves is the key for success.
Next exercise that you can try is to put your bird on your shoulder and walk in a house.
Try to show her every room that will be safe for her.
Exploring new territories will be very entertaining for the little bird.
Also, she will learn that your body is safe for her.
To put your bird on your shoulder, you can use your hands as a nest.
And again, with smooth moves without forcing the bird.
After a few times, she will love to be on your shoulder.
Don't try to touch her with your fingers in the beginning.
It will scare the bird.
Just let her know that she is safe on your shoulder.
Next exercise.
To make your bird to interact with you, you need somehow to call her.
For example, I like to watch videos and to eat on the dining table.
So this will be a perfect place to interact with my lovebird.
In order to call her, I just open some videos with lovebird sounds.
She very quickly will get curious and will come.
After a few times, she will come without calling her.
And this will be a perfect place to improve her trust.
For example, when I eat, I like to give her to smell or even to take a bite.
In this way, she will get used to your fingers.
After some time, she will feel free to do whatever she wants.
And will come and eat with you and also will step on your shoulder.
I don't know why, but my Loki likes to melt things near my ears.
And this gives me a very nice feelings.
It's kind of like natural alive ASMR that keeps me in the present moment.
To make your bird to trust you even more, you can try to take her in your hands.
You need to feel the energy of your hands.
And the moves should be very slow and smooth.
Do not touch her wings.
There is not a bird that will like that.
Take her from the bottom.
And again, don't put pressure.
Your little birds need to feel your hands as a cloud that floats in the air, you know.
Try to kiss her as much as possible.
I used to kiss my bird from the beginning and this associates with safety in her brain.
Also, you can try to pet her with your fingers.
Mine is already grown up bird.
And because of my mistakes, she hates a little bit my fingers.
But still, she will let me to pet her sometimes.
Also, an important step to not lose your bird's trust is to respect her house.
I'm sure that you know that lovebirds are very territorial.
So just don't put your hands in their cage.
My Loki is very crazy about territory.
But I don't care so much, you know.
It's funny for me to play with her.
As a conclusion, I just want to be honest with you.
All these steps are the ones that are really good to follow in order to make your lovebird to trust you.
But this doesn't mean that I didn't make stupid things in this period.
I have a video about that.
But the main idea is that I want you to find your unique way of getting its trust.
I mean, you can try to do it perfectly.
But this is boring, you know.
During the period of taming your bird is good to make mistakes.
Because you are alive and your bird is also an alive creature.
My Loki is a reflection of my good things.
But also my mistakes made her stronger and gave her a really cool character.
The main idea is just do whatever the F you feel right to do with your bird.
If you will be honest and will love your little bird, believe me, she will trust you and will love you too.
Don't try to be perfect because no one is.
I hope that I really helped you to understand something more about your lovebird.
Also, I have a budgie and I'm planning to do a video about him.
The strongest budgie in the world.
Because he survived more than 5 times.
I mean, it's a really crazy story.
So if you are interested, just let me know in the comments.
Should I make a video about him also or not?
And please hit the like button because this will help us to buy food for our little birds and to keep them alive and happy.
That's it for today.
Maybe see you tomorrow.
Have a nice day.
Peace, bro!
