Little Scooter quaker's training thread

[saroj12]

Today was his first session. I cut the shelled sunflower seeds too small so he wasn't motivated. Might just give him whole seeds in shell for clicker conditioning. Click treat click treat click treat. that was it for tonight. He'll get the notion solidified tomorrow with unshelled sunnies. So excited with a brand new learner! He was a little wary of the clicker at first so I kept it a little far from him.

I hope it went well today.

Two nips at the stick worth two sunflower seeds. It was good!

Then suddenly he got scared of the chopstick! So we're stepping back to click treat click treat tomorrow.
