Oh yes you can....first you must gain their complete trust...you can start your first trick to be a flip by placing your pointer finger under the birds breast to perch him on your finger and then take your other hand placed lightly on his back and manually flip the bird over towards you and back around.....after serveral trys throughout a week or two the bird will start to do it with just a touch on their back. They are also good talkers....best if its a male...look for the blue colored bridge on the upper beak females are brown and don't talk as easy.
