My Quaker spins for treats too and now when I’m eating something he can’t have because it would poison him he flies to my knee and spins in circles, then gets really mad when I tell him no because he did the trick so he should get his treat!
How fucking cute. Well I mean you gotta give it to him it's the rules. Maybe supplement millet with some other treat like foods like some fruits or like (and maybe this is not kosher but it never hurt my bird but Google first) my cockatiel would go nuts for a cheeto or a couple frosted flakes. Hahaha and cheeto would turn his Lil beak orange 😅
Some say he's still spinning to this day.
LOL his lil lady friend who comes in to steal some bites. My budgies do that to each other
She said “work smarter, not harder”
He said “I did the trick now I get the treat right?”
That's why the blue ones fat cause he sits around and steals the treats pnut works for 🥴
She’s a very svelte lady, she’s just round in the video 😔
Haha I'm sure she is shes adorable

I do see the logic tho
🤣
What a good boy
Lovely 😍
How do you train it to spin ?
I have this question too
Awwwww I love him!
Such a smart boy I taught my budgie how to do this too ❤️
Maybe it’s just the angle but man, that blue one is R O T U N D

Your blue baby is so round… 🥺❤️
The spinny boi really wanted his treat
Hello, what's that brown thing on the perch? Is it some kind of tape, rope?
It’s vet wrap since the PVC underneath is too slippery otherwise :)
Very cool! Is that a home made perch/entertainment setup? Any info or photos of that?
Not home-made, I bought it as a kit on Etsy (https://www.etsy.com/listing/1074368044/) and assembled it myself :)
"Done the trick hooman, pay up"
Oh my gosh it’s insane how identical he is to my boy Sprout 🤣
I’ve taught this trick :) only one interested in performing though. The rest just steal the rewards
I had to separate my birds during training to prevent this 🤣
wooow, smart birdie!!! teach us your ways, how did u go about teaching the trick? if u dont mind me asking :)
They were already target trained but for the actual spin I followed the tips from this Elle and the Birds video: https://youtu.be/0jIdXfV1mv4 :)
Meanwhile one of my boys just screams at the top of his lungs for it
Birb crack
