Kacy Takes a Bath

The best part what I love about parrots is that I never ever had to chase them for bath time. With a dish of clean water, off they go for a bath! Most parrots (particularly species like lovebirds and conures) love to play with water, thus it’s hardly a problem to get them to go for a few dips.

Kacy loves playing with water. She can spend nearly 2-5 minutes happily playing and getting herself completely drenched! She enjoys that, but often left me with cumbersome chores of wipping tabletop and mopping the floor dry!

Kacy Plays Basketball

On my previous post, I showcased 1 of the 5 amazing parrot tricks that Kacy learned, so here’s the second parrot trick – Kacy plays basketball:

Basketball has now become Kacy’s favorite sports game, and she plays it almost everyday! Whenever I setup the prop and taking out the ball, she just can’t wait to snatch the ball from me and dunk it into the hoop! *Giggle*

Kacy’s Cup Stacking Trick

I started teaching my Black Capped Conure, Kacy parrot tricks one month ago, but I never expected that she turns out to be a fast learner!

Till now, she already can perform 5 amazing parrot tricks! Among the 5 parrot tricks, one of those is the Cup Stacking Trick.

Some of those who have been keeping track on our blog will find the Cup Stacking Trick familiar. Indeed, both Kermit and Kiki had also performed the Cup Stacking Trick before. Unfortunately both of them were no longer around to witness Kacy’s success in performing the trick.

Hand Feeding Baby Kacy

On my previous post, I shared about my unforgettable experience of raising Kacy and my opinions on hand-raising a baby parrot. Hand-feeding baby Kacy was indeed tiring but I truly enjoyed every session. It was really fun!

After viewing the video collection, did Baby Kacy melt you? Tempted to get a baby parrot?

Raising Baby Kacy

“Get a weaned parrot! Never get an unweaned chick!” These are words we always hear from experienced parrot owners.

These are good words of advice, because unweaned baby parrots are extremely delicate creature. Without ample knowledge and experience, any err in the hand-feeding procedure can lead to death of the chicks!

Although I do agree with the statement above, but it seems that I had never heed to it. Kiki, Kermit and now Kacy were unweaned babies when I got them. I hand-fed them and raised the 3 of them myself. I do know the risk of getting unweaned babies, but looking on the brighter side I get to witness them growing up, fledging and finally learned how to fly!

Raising Kacy was an incredible experience, simply indescribable. In fact, I felt very rewarding seeing her turning into a healthy beautiful queen! Seriously, I had never regret bringing her home unweaned!

Whenever I flipped through these pictures and viewing videos collections of her, it reminds me of the sweet memories and the hard-work I had undergone hand-raising Kacy. P.S. I do get quite emotional whenever I flipped through the album.

Kermit’s Parrot Tricks: Waving Hello

The third portion of the refresher course that I had worked with Kermit, involving him to perform the basic trick: “Waving Hello” with his right foot upon vocal cues.

Kermit was able to wave with his right foot upon my vocal cues, his performance for the day was excellent. Like the earlier session, Kermit surprised me with his vocal talents. He said out his name again at the 0:11 seconds.
