I agree. These guys have a range of human-like behaviors and moods. My 20-year-old QP and I understand each other completely with our moods and feelings. My QP has mellowed out in his old age but still can be a demon sometimes. I'm 68 and we're probably the same age in bird years. my girlfriend and i love him even when he is a demon. Loads of fun when he's nice.

I totally agree with everything you said! My Quaker lived to be 27 years old. She was the sweetest thing & the devil bird! If you spend time with them they can speak quite well. My girl could sing the entire Sesame Street song. Sometimes she would repeat a verse over and over waiting for me to sing. Other times she got angry and squawked if I sang. She was extremely smart, bossy, sweet and mean all in one little bundle. It took me a couple of years to stop trying to pick her up when she gave me several warnings. Oh and if she wasn't ready to be put in her cage, she would fly all over the house to get away......I knew that I would have to put a small towel over her to avoid getting bit if she didn't want to go to the cage. I did love her being part of the family. I still miss her. I will say that it is a commitment and anyone that can't commit to taking care of them for a long time (20-30 years) maybe should not get one.

My quaker parrot is the chillest bird ever. She doesn't ever scream, she almost never shows any aggression. She's only 8 months old and hasn't started talking yet, she might never just because she's not super vocal. When she does a wing lift and tilts forward she wants to be picked up or she'll wave a foot at you to be picked up. She loves the hang out in my jacket all day and will take naps with me. Shes great with new people and isnt scared of any noises. Down sides, she doesn't like toys, so doesnt like the color orange, she doesn't like any sort of citrus, doesn't like most vegetables, wastes most of her food, and she likes to wander on the floor. But she is by far the most perfect bird (for me) that I could ever ask for

Quakers are parrots in need of a lot of attention as they are very social birds. They need many hours of out the cage with interaction and stimulation. Please dont take this rudely, just a personal suggestion that if no one can give the quaker these things id think of rehoming. The bird is desperate for attention and may soon undergo stress where they start plucking out their own feathers

This is a good video everything u said is basically true except they do not bite as much as u say if they love u because I had one for 12 years and he bit me a total of 5 times and it was usually when my boyfriend was around cause he hated my boyfriend so I tried not to take him out of my Boyfriend was around and the 5 times he bit me he never he never drew blood it was more like nibbles..he was always affectionate towards me and my mom all the time he was never aggressive with us he was only aggressive towards people who he didn’t know or people who didn’t pay him much attention or know him that well..but mine was amazing and sweet and I could put my hand in his cage and take him out whenever I wanted and he never bit me and it’s not a lie but he did love my jewelry so he would nibble on my jewelry and I would just move his beak away from my jewelry and he would stop and he could speak perfectly clear and I communicated with him like he was a person he was the best bird I ever had. So I just wanted to say ur video is mostly true mine tried to mate with me and my mom all the time and we would not encourage him to do it and he did growl and things he didn’t like for example the vacuum he hated when I vacuumed and he hated my step dad and my boyfriend but he never bit me or my mom and we had him 12 years so as long as u treat them very good and pay them a lot of attention they are the best bird to have and they won’t bite or attack u..but like I said they will bite and attack people they don’t know or people they don’t get attention from and know very well. Ur video was great and mostly true but I don’t lie and mine never bit me and always wanted to be with me and play with me and when we played he never bit me so I don’t know why yours are biting u maybe u just have ones that have more of an aggression personality but mine was sweet and gentle..every Quaker is different so not all bite that much and are they way u explained it depends on their personality and mine was great I never had issues with him and like I said he never bit anyone he trusted and he definitely never bit anyone hard enough to draw blood he was such a sweetheart so it depends on how the personality of yours is and I recommend this bird to everyone but make sure u pick the right one for u cause u don’t wanna buy one that has an aggressive personality and bites so do your research and make sure u get one while they’re a baby so it can grow and bond with u and it won’t be mean and bite or attack like mine..but ur video is interesting to watch because u do know a lot about them but they are not as aggressive or bite as much as u say.

OMG best quaker vid ever. We have FIVE quakers - oldest is now 6 and the leader of the pack. So tired of people going on about their sweet little one that they have had for all of 3 months - they are truly little devils. i train them everyday. I hang with them everyday for at least an hour or two. I care for them as much as I care for my kids - bath, bedtime, regular meals, cleaning 'rooms', changing and updating toys, checking their health, their body/toes and MOST of all, watching over their interactions like they are in daycare ie break up fights, stop bullying, make sure everyone gets food, oh and stopping them from stealing shiny things from around the house. But they love us so much that they fly around the house and outside garden and still come home everyday.

Hahaha awesome video, and so accurate! Yep, you are right quaker parrots finds it funny to see your pain. Bruno can come to me to kiss, cuddle etc. then he out of nowhere starts biting my hands so hard, I start to question my life choices ;) But he still is not messing with me as much as with others because I am ignoring his attempts to bite me, when my grandma started to show that she is scared every time Bruno comes to her very fast, he started to literally troll her. He was flying on her head, around her, biting her ears and fingers, things he never do to me. And he sometimes is coming to someone, biting ear, and starts laughing. And yes I have to guess what mood Bruno is at this moment, he seems cuddly then bam! bite. I know that he is angry if he sits in the cage for too long or if I am not home for too long. Or if i am trying to take something from him/ change his toys positions. He was absolutely furious when I bought him a new cage and started to move things from the old one. Hahaha yes the head shake :D Looks amazing when they do this. And tapping, Bruno is tapping my shoulder, usually when I am turning water on. Yep Bruno is sometimes hissing jus because. When it comes to the sounds when they are trying to mate with you...yea, it is hard to replicate you just need to hear that :D Sometimes he also is taking toys from me with visible aggression, like angry kid, like 'give me that freaking toy!!!' :D And yea, Bruno tries to mate my arm from time to time, that's when I know I have to back off. And yes I can agree with you on one more thing, when Bruno was a baby he was so sweet I was sure he won't bite me, when he started his puberty, well...:D Also sounds, when he was a baby he wasn't screaming. Now he has sleeping cage and cage dor a day because my parents can't stand his morning screaming at 5 AM :D And i kinda like those sounds.

He would go into this attack mode for about 10-15 minutes where he would lift up his wings, start laughing nonstop while climbing/sliding down from his cage, and sprint full speed to me just to climb and attack me 😂. Had it where he would be cuddling with me just to bite the crap outta my face with no warning. Would have to endure the bites while putting him in his cage/house and locking it until he calmed down. They're beautiful maniacs.

People's replies are so different from my experience. We adopted our Quaker as about a 2 1/2 year old. He was somewhat bitey when we first took him in, but he got over it. Breeding season tended to be a little rougher. The rest of the year he was snuggly. Loved to sing. I did clip the outer two flight feathers as he had a tendency to fly into things. We also had young children in and out of the house all the time, and I did not want to risk him slipping outside. I do suspect that not being fully flighted may tame some of the random aggression. I realize that upsets some, but I think it is important to work with the individual bird and the living situation. Reepicheep lived until he was almost 29 years. It is very strange without him. I truly can't say I ever saw him bite out of spite or just for fun, other than possibly one time more than 25 years ago.

Hi Fellow Quaker friend Mimis, you rock! Advice, don't apologize for making content, you are helping people, and what you have here is spot on! Good on you! Mr. Otis is my blue QP, and he rocks, and yes he goes through everyone of these with exception of the hissing and wings out one. After years what I have observed is this Mr. Otis will hold a grudge, if you don't spend enough time he gets mad for a bit. And it's up to him as to when he's ready to drop the attitude. At first I used to get upset, now I just give him space and keep trying and then he's fine! So if in doubt, just give him space. One time he was in a mood, so I said ok, I am going to let you be free to experience real flight... He was never out on his own before, but I just knew that we bonded and I wanted him to have a chance to experience the world... And guess what he somehow found his way back after about an hour on his own, and ofcourse me looking like crazy! How he did it was beyond me. Also I won't do it again!

On June 04.2024 I arrived home to notice my Chica (quaker) not looking good. I held her for 20-30 minutes and she was very calm. MIN you seemed/was fine in the morning. Well somewhere about 6:22PM while holding her in my hand/arms she let out a scream, her wings expanded and sadly... she passed on. WHY. I don't understand this and I am having such an emotional time thinking of what could have gone wrong during the day. Can someone please try to explain this to me. THANK YOU SO MUCH! BTW, Chica would have been 3 years Novemeber 2024

I actually think your video is really relevant and my bird doesn't do everything here (bc he's a freak lol) but I have noticed he rubs his beak on his cage. He also likes to attack my poor aunt, my mom and my brother by lifting his wings and reaching out and all that, but he's fine with everyone else. For some reason he is okay with me doing anything to him. I can approach him and scratch him when he's on his cage and literally hold him whenever I want and he doesn't look fazed at all lol.

My husband recently persuaded me to adopt one - a blue-colored baby, that just started eating on its own - and from the first day home, I knew that this wouldn't be an 'easy' bird. This is my first Quaker so I researched how to approach him/her (no idea if it's a boy or a girl although I think it may be a girl) and I am surprised at how temperamental he/she is! I recognize the 'I'll bite you because it's fun' behavior and when I see it, I am trying distraction but I think I'll need to wait for at least a year to see if this will 'work'. Quiqui already says his/her name and imitates some sounds. It also seems as he/she has a special call just for me when he/she wants to grab my attention (!!). Will 'step up' only when he/she lands somewhere far away from her cage and wants to be transported closer to it and (until now) refuses to accept any scratches. But he/she is very happy to come on my arm when I am wearing my morning fleece robe! He/She actually purrs like a cat. Maybe she was handled with a piece of fleece when she was a baby and he/she feels familiar and comfortable with this material? (But I don't think placing a piece of it in his/her home is a good idea because I wouldn't want her to swallow any fluff).

Thank you for adopting! Quaker’s arnt easy but they are so rewarding! Definitely a bird that will make you laugh, extremely soft, good company and loves those scritchies. Puberty is the difficult time dealing with a teenager quaker parrot but i promise they are so so sweet. I always heard blue ones are more calm than green one’s haha guess green one’s have that hulk energy 😂 yes definitely dont place the fleece inside as swallowing even small pieces can lead to a vet visit.

I feel for you. Mine would sweetly like to climb on my shoulder, where, if he felt he wasn't getting noticed enough, would try to bite my earlobe badly. I would have to lean down and let him sit on the bed. I've read that if they are too agitated/ over stimulated it's best to have them step up on a stick. That way they can bite the stick if they're a little cranky. This is supposed to help with the cage territorial issues I read. I also found that since my bird liked attention so much, if he was being too nippy I could put him on the floor or cage top to cool off. I tried to associate him biting with being put down. His very first worlds when he was a handfed baby were him repeating his name and "Come here". So clearly he really wanted to be picked up. I think that's an insight into their thought process. They're very sociable birds and will laugh as they're giving you a nasty nip. You're so right about that. Dave and Jamie did mention sometimes interacting with stick training can be a good way to encourage the "gentle" or you won't get a treat behavior. My quaker was field for fruit which was only a treat.

Sounds like your birds are bonded to each other and less to you. I'm considering a quaker parrot, but only one so it will bond with me. I've heard that they can become aggressive if they bond with another bird and not a human. I could be wrong, but I'm watching several videos from different sources on the subject, so I get a broader understanding.

My parrots are all super bonded to me and each other as I have interacted and bonded as a flock and community. Frankly, this is just a quaker parrot thing. They can be mean solo or duo. It was mainly one of my qukers. The other one was more bonded to humans, and my sun was more bonded to humans. They all have their personalities. Keep in mind quakers are SUPER clingy so if your gonna get one be prepared to spend majority of your day with them. My birds and I all hang out together, we give each other kisses and attention, they see me as part of their flock and thats the goal ☺️

@@mimisbirdhouse I will try with the video you showed to me. We also think that when we rescued this parrot. The previous people, they must have been doing something horrific to him and Herman is probably ptsd traumatized. I was told when we received them that their previous own had some small kids and a weird teenager. when he arrived he had an injury on the top of his head, he was underweight, skittish even more so than now among other problems we did reverse. the people we gained him from did didn't know much about the previous people. but i have some dark feelings the kids were mean to the bird. especially because of his known issues. such as the injury and his damaged wings and beak. we replaced all of the stuff the cage came with, but we never replaced the cage he came in, because he seemed to not want to leave it. so we felt that it would stress him more to move him from a place he was already comfortable in. but everything inside the cage has been replaced and altered. new toys, better ones, more twisty rope perches, and bells. he seems very comfortable with his 24 bells. we hung them inside, outside and around the area. he will leave the cage, but only to the outside perches where the bells are and uses his snack ladder, but i am certain it's probably nothing we can do... unless we get a parrot therapist. which with love and care we managed to reverse and heal. but maybe he is simply too traumatized from something in his past. we do know he has an extreme phobia of cardboard, anything that sounds like cardboard or looks like it. doesn't have to be a box. he is definitely a rescue bird. i feel that he wouldn't be around if we hadn't intervened.

Rescued a Quaker and named him Oscar (Oscar the Grouch from Sesame Street). And maaaaan does that little turd live up to his name. He purs like a cat when I give him scratches on his neck and out of absolutely nowhere, he’ll just chomp my arm. I’ve also got a Goffin’s Cockatoo who was also a rescue. Used to pluck and have horrible separation anxiety and was scared to leave his cage. He’s fully recovered, no bald spots, and loves to fly outside. But to my point, rehabbing my cockatoo who’s species has a reputation for being difficult was significantly easier and more pleasant than any time I’ve had to deal with my Quaker. Love him to death but I don’t think I’ll be going out looking for another one anytime soon. Anyway, beautiful birds you have. Thanks for the video

A few minutes is not enough for training, you need hours with them to bond. Your quaker sounds like he just doesnt trust you, and bringing another bird who he isnt bonded to can post problems. Best to work little a day on taming and bonding and after you gain their trust they can be with you without fear and then you can work with bonding them to your other bird.
