Cockatoo John's Parrot Paraphernalia

I received the T-Sticks today. Very well made! Heavy-duty but easy to hang on to. I'm going to lay them out for a few days so Koko can see them, than work up to Natasha walking by Koko carrying them but not interacting with her. Go from there. Thank you John they both look so excited

They are definitely 2 of my biggest nephews. Those sticks will last forever. Once they get over the hump and accept them they will become the way to handle those big guys because they will prefer it. "You" will find it just nicer and easier and think how did I handle them before this.

It will help get Natasha over her fear of Koko. Once she realizes she can move Koko safely she'll relax more and so will Koko.

Koko wanted on the T-Stick, Natasha was nervous and unsteady with it but did an excellent job for her first time.

I hold the stick vertical so you can hold it lower. Seems steadier. The steadier you are with it the easier it is to ride.

And no bite!

I was showing her how she could hold it different, I think she'll get plenty of practice in, Koko seems to enjoy being carried by her.

The BEST money ever spent! I can't imagine trying to get Secret moved anywhere without one.

WE call it "stick handling".
