Hi i have an indian ringneck and I was just wondering if anyone here has any experience teaching an indian ringneck tricks could you please tell me how you do it?

I would love to teach him how to kiss, nod his head (say yes) and say hellow etc.

Anything would be appreciated thankyou!

not sure how toteach the other tricks you mentioned but kisses are easy you say kiss then put a treat between your lips i used a sunflower seed then as skeet got the idea i started saying kiss then waitng for the kiss before handing her the treat now she just needs a "good girl" and a pat after the kiss
with a more skittish bird i used a larger treat like a piece of popcorn

You could always try checking out youtube. Lots of videos of birds, including ringies, doing tricks.
