>>>> The cue for my dogs is the same as yours:"Go Poopy"...for my birds it's
"Bombs Away" or "Fire in the hole"...I think you can indeed train older
birds...I can't remember how old Hoover is, but Charlie learned at 35 years
old...she didn't have any potty training at  all before that.


Hoover was not young when we had our little breakthrough with him - he was a
wild-caught bird who lived with another family until we got him.  I think he
was 10-12-ish when we got him.  Any doubts I have would be related to the
particulars of any given bird, not particularly age related.  Mainly, I
didn't want to give the impression that ALL birds can be potty trained.
Maybe they can, but I don't want to mislead people about the mess.  Parrots
are wonderful - but they do come with some side "benefits" people should be
aware of!

"The greatest enemy of the truth very often is not the lie- deliberate, 
contrived and dishonest -- but the myth -- persistent, persuasive and 
unrealistic."

"All truth passes through three stages.
First, it is ridiculed. Second, it is violently opposed.
Third, it is accepted as being self-evident." ~ Arthur Schopenhauer
