Pet Forum / Birds / Parrots / July 2004Head shaking
Hi there, I was wondering if the group might know why my tiel shakes his head when i talk to him.....It seems that he reponds to a few key words such as 'boy' 'hello' etc any ideas?? Russ It is the pitch of your voice. I find when I whisper to Sugar he listens closely to the words. I think certain tones of voices will cause the bird to shake its head. Birds do hear louder than we do. Sugar's mom (-: > Hi there, > [quoted text clipped - 5 lines] > > Russ My teil bobs his head up and down and if that is what u mean by shakes I sometimes bob my head back at him and he loves that and gets all into bobbing his head up and down.

Talk with a higher voice or whisper. One of my male 'tiels ears resonate to the pitch of our bowls. If I strike the bowl slightly and make it ring he goes into a frenzie almost. > Hi there, > [quoted text clipped - 5 lines] > > Russ > Hi there, > [quoted text clipped - 5 lines] > > Russ Your exhaled breath is probably just slightly irritating. You exhale more when you say certain letters/words "h" and "b" among them. He'l probably shake his head if just blow a little in his face.  SignatureJames Hmm interesting theories......I have been trying to get my tiel to talk and had thought it was the beginnings of voice recognition....now i'm not so sure...!! Cheers Russ > > Hi there, > > [quoted text clipped - 9 lines] > when you say certain letters/words "h" and "b" among them. He'l probably > shake his head if just blow a little in his face. Try humming different frequencies until you find one that causes it. Now find a glass or bowl that produces the same frequency by pinging a bunch. This will explain it to you. > Hmm interesting theories......I have been trying to get my tiel to talk and > had thought it was the beginnings of voice recognition....now i'm not so [quoted text clipped - 19 lines] > > when you say certain letters/words "h" and "b" among them.

Dave, that's a big load of ignorant sh.t you posted. SignatureJames Look at who needs attention again. Somebody get him a diaper.

We'd never have even known he posted something until you had to go and reply to him... thus giving him attention.

What good does it do too point out my posts? Do you think you're helping the group in some way? Are you trying to annoy me in hope that I'll go away after all these years and that you'll have all the bragging rights to this great accomplishment? or do you just have nothing better to do than follow me around like a school girl with a crush?

You flatter yourself, twink. Hey, what's the sound of a turd hitting the toilet? Need a hint: *plonk* Later, twink. When your social life develops such that you don't have to troll a bird newsgroup for attention, you'll be better off. -c > Look at who needs attention again.

Put the lunatic in your Bozo Bin - then maybe those of us who DO have him killfiled won't have to indirectly read his slandrous BS through your replies to him.

See, we have a couple of "trolls" here, and they take pot shots at various people and cause pointless arguements which brings down the standard of the group. It's slowing down, as more of us put the ringleaders in our killfilters or "bozo-bins" (the ignore list). But they still post rubbish, on the off chance that somebody will see it and play their childish games. Save yourself some time, and plonk the main 3 right now: James, Pizza Gurl (or Piezzo Girl or whatever nick it's using now) and Peter Hucker. I think you'll find it is much quieter without those 3 children tugging on your sleeve begging for attention. Hope this helps. >> Gawd all i asked was a simple question and now it seems you have >> started a war.....For christ sake lighten up people...!!! [quoted text clipped - 17 lines] > > Hope this helps.

Well sorry Kathy, but right now, you are the person replying to him, and I am the one seeing his posts. If you and Ray both plonk him, that will be 2 extra chances for me not to see his rubbish. Come on now..... >> He doesn't let them get to him..... He and I both would just like to >> see a few of the trolls be gone for good. > > Then just plonk them - trust me, it works.... No it doesnt Mark. Hucker is a self confessed racisct, hates gays and Americans, yet he is now posting to all about his baby conures. People (mostly Americans) know what he is yet seem to accept him. I guess laughing at the twin towers collapsing wasnt a bad thing (for him), he is becoming popular here. I see his posts because these people reply to the sick idiot. So why plonk him? > why plonk him? Ok. So don't plonk him. But you are not going to acheive anything by having the same old argument forever and ever are you? It's like scratching chickpox - you'll only make it worse. I have plonked the loser, and surprise surprise - I don't see much of it anymore. Only through YOUR posts, so please, Ray. Just let it go. You'll give yourself a stomach ulcer or cancer from all the stress. >> why plonk him? > [quoted text clipped - 5 lines] > it anymore. Only through YOUR posts, so please, Ray. Just let it go. > You'll give yourself a stomach ulcer or cancer from all the stress. Thats crap Mark, I've hardly posted anything for over a week, besides bird related posts yesterday. Would you be happy if I didnt post at all? Thats not going to happen. This plonking is bull, read the posts or ignore them or do you have to read each and every post in a newsgroup? > >> why plonk him? > > [quoted text clipped - 10 lines] > not going to happen. This plonking is bull, read the posts or ignore them or > do you have to read each and every post in a newsgroup? I agree with Ray. I don't like plonking either so I more or less ignore them. I will post to whatever moron I please if I feel I need to.... some things I just can't resist :-) > Thats crap Mark, I've hardly posted anything for over a week, besides bird > related posts yesterday. Would you be happy if I didnt post at all? Thats > not going to happen. This plonking is bull, read the posts or ignore them or > do you have to read each and every post in a newsgroup? Ok fine. I don't want to argue with you, just trying to help. Seems you are stressing yourself out over all this, that's all. Of course I don't want you to stop posting - your on topic posts are always worth reading, and I do enjoy the OT ones as well. What I'm saying is, I agree with you over the whole Hucker thing, and I enjoyed arguing with him as much as you do. But not 24/7. Ease up a touch. Think of "Hucker-Bashing" as a hobby, not an obsession. Know what I mean? > "Mark Wilson" <theninja@bigpond.com> wrote in message news:%YlHc.84965$ > > > Just killfile the ratbag. > > Done. Nice :-) Try whistling low notes and he'll probably do the same thing. Not sure what that's about. -c > Hi there, > [quoted text clipped - 5 lines] > > Russ |
