    Elle: “Your basically inviting a flying toddler into ur house” Me: “sooo truueee”

    Elle: you need to end as much time with your bird as possible Quarantine: I got you covered
  • @chloegraff6114
    "ur basically inviting a fly toddler into your house" II CANTTTT, LOOOLLL
  • @Loveofpets
    Love your statement " lots of other animals that don't fly " So true.
  • @rimabachrouch
    I think Elle knows more about birds than they do of themselves

    7:42 is such an important point. My parents got me my budgie when I was 10, didn't require me to do any research, and she ended up on a seed diet and alone in her cage for nearly 4 years before I actually decided to do research on my own. I gave up on my baby before I even knew what I was doing wrong, so it's so important that kids are able to understand the commitment and patience it takes to own a bird of any size!

    I love this channel because it speaks for those who don't have a voice. We love you Elle, keep doing what your doing! You saved my 3 budgies from having a awful home by showing me how to take care of them properly. Love Eve, Ducky, Willow, and River 😃

    Me: I should pay attention in school Elle posts a video Me: history class isn’t that important right
  • @SoaringSunshine
    I am totally not in the middle of my homework....... Its ok, because you are so helpful! :D
  • @evewright7382
    Am I the only one who has had to explain to their teacher why there is bite marks on my homework? Because it was quite awkward when I handing her my homework and she asked why there we are tiny bite marks in it and I just said "my bird." I'm her new favorite student

    Hello! My daughter Priscilla loves your channel and insisted we comment. We have two parakeets. Our first bird landed on our deck one day after no one in the neighborhood claimed him he became ours and we named him Frank. We recently got him a friend and named him Bean. Your videos are very helpful and have taught us that we were doing everything wrong in regards to training 😂. We are working on training the proper way now.
  • @BirdNerdSophie
    Lots of great tips here! Birds change your whole lifestyle - every day revolves around them for us and that's the way I like it! 😀💙🦜

    My cousin asked me “So what’s it like to have a bird?” Me: Imagine living with a Bipolar narcissist Toddler who never grows up for 20 years with bolt cutters attached to its face. Oh yea.....and they can Fly When I get home my little Dino throws his food everywhere. He is LOUD and very noisy! He is a tiny lovebird and can probably send sound waves strong enough to tear through the house. Poops....EVERYWHERE!!! can you tolerate getting bitten by a moody child? It happens every day. If you leave them alone for a second they start screaming flying around the house trying to find Mommy or Daddy. They get into everything. Shutting the bathroom doors are no longer acceptable. They get VERY jealous. When my boyfriend came over at first Petry would bite him because he was very Possessive over me and thought he wasn’t getting enough attention. They will manage to get anywhere and everywhere they can. His “friendly” and “murder” switch can flip any second. He can want scritches one second and the next stare at your hand like it’s his next Meal. Very Angry Dino sometimes 😂😂😂😂❤️❤️❤️❤️ But....I love him to death no matter what. Best thing that I ever did was decide to get a bird.
