You can get them at a pet store or online. They are sometimes used for dog training so it might not be in a bird section. They’re great for letting your bird know when it does something right.

Just put the stick really close to its face and keep it there and wait for it to touch it. You may have to wait a minute or 5 or 10. But when it touches you click and reward. Soon it will catch on and do it more often. You can also try touching the stick to the birds beak and rewarding it to show it what it can get.
