Smile How do I get my budgie to do tricks?

Hi! I would love to teach Chickadee new tricks, but I can't. She is a very tame bird and she can only do 1 trick, "shake". May I get some ideas please?

Have you thought about Clicker training? I haven't had much success with it, but I've heard other people have.

Sorry. I try- but she is scared of the clicker. Every time I click, she flies away.

Cookie has the same problem - except she's scared of the actual clicker and not the noise. I think i have heard that you can also pick a certain word to use instead of the click, but that it might be a little hard because the word could come up in conversation and be said around her.
