The eventual goal here is actually injection training. But the trainer needed better duration for the body position first. Can you see the body language he is looking for that lets him know the bird is considering breaking position? He is trying to build in longer gaps of time in between the delivery of reinforcers. He did get a 2 minute hold here (IG will only show 60 sec) Overtime he can work his way down to one reinforcer delivered at the completion of the hold. Been a very rewarding first few days with the team in Bogor. Lots of behavior change in single sessions. 😊#blueandgoldmacaw #macawtraining #parrottraining #injectiontraining #layonback #durationbehavior
