“Protected Contact” means working with a safe barrier between you and the animal. Normally not needed for my companion parrots, but what if reproductive hormones have kicked into high gear and your parrot is not quite himself and is easily triggered for aggressive behavior? Could you still get cooperation voluntarily? Yes! Cue your parrot to station on a perch so that the scale can be safely placed, then target to the scale. Target back to the station to remove the scale. Mission accomplished. #scaletraining #parrottraining #parrotbehavior #parrotbehaviorproblems #aggressivebehavior #protectedcontact #parrots #yellownapedamazon #yellownapedamazonparrots
