screaming

So, I adopted a 6 year old female sun conure from a woman. The bird has plucked her entire chest and underneath her wings. My main issue is her sexual behaviour and that she is super clingy. I already have a little flock containing a illiger macaw, hooded parakeet, cockatiel and a male sun...

Hi! I am getting a male green cheek soon, and I have never owned a bird. I have heard about the hormonal stage? Like they get nippy and scream? 1. Do they all go through this stage? (im assuming so) 2. When they start screaming, do they eventually go back to being quiet birds, or will they...

Hi everyone, I have a 4 year old Green cheek conure named Bowser. He is the only parrot I have since I let go of the second Conure I bought a couple years ago to a very nice woman. Bowser is my first Conure and he is extremely attached to me. Basically wants my attention 24/7. This is an issue...

Saturday night I enter a new pet store. A cozy little reptile store where I handle a few stunning burmese pythons and chat with shop staff before closing. A nice place...for reptiles. Not for the amazon parrot shaking quietly in a corner, locked inside a little parakeet cage atop a python tank...

I have been researching and researching about what to do in regards to my male alexandrines behaviour problems and am looking for advice! He is 2 and a half and has his ring around his neck, very tame, chats with us all the time, and was handraised. However he has started in the last 6 months...

so last post i was working with a couple problems ive had with my baby noble and some are now pretty much corrected, while others... not so much! her fear of other people is getting better. she will let others approch her with out getting to nervous and will actually stay perched and not move...

Hello I am new here since I am a new parrot owner. I took the time and dedication to study before getting a parrot. I got my Coco from Craigslist about a month and a half ago. He is an African ringneck about 10 months old. I have a cage, toys, and perches. He is able to be out and about all day...

OMG! I am about to go out of my mind... I have a male, Greater Patagonian... been three weeks now and we are making great progress on so many things... he is healthy, I give him lots of one on one time, healthy food (this is a challenge as his previous owner basically fed him sunflower seeds)...

Hello, My name is Heather, and my green cheek conure's name is Phoenix. I am currently in second year university living in my parents house because money is a tough situation. I came to this site to ask a few questions and hopefully get some help with dealing with Phoenix.:green2: Phoenix is 2...

Hello. Me and my family have owned 4 African greys. The last one was a genius in talking, acting dancing... unfortunately he flew away and my mom entered a depression. My dad bought a new parrot, while i was studiying abroad. I come back after 2 years, to find a parrot with strange behavior. I...

My parrot is constantly screaming. Every five minutes, theres a loud scream coming from the living room. I'm okay if she would only do it every now and then, as that's normal, but it's very excessive. Her previous owners would give her attention when she would scream, so she learned to scream...

Hi All, Hope everyone is well. You all seem like a super helpful/supportive bunch. I'm hoping you can give me some words of advice from your experiences? I just brought home a new 4 month old baby back-headed caique and I have the most nervous stomach that I'm doing everything wrong! I've...

We have a new male eclectus and have had him for the past couple of days, and he just started screaming earlier on today. We've been picking him up, putting him in his cage and covering him with a sheet, and leaving him there for about half an hour. Whenever we go up to take him out again and he...

Hello all! So Loki (Goffin's cockatoo) and Mango (sun conure) are finally here with in San Diego! It's been about two weeks and it's already been a crazy ride. Amongst the weirdest of the behaviors I've noticed is that every two or three nights, Loki will start screaming every 10 seconds or so...

Got a couple of sun conures, havent raised birds in a while. been staying at moms with them while my house becomes bird proofed, when i first got them they absolutely did not like people, ive finally go one taking apple pieces from me, and the other as well though he is skeptical about it...

My Rocky loves his cage He's such a good boy I have never liked the idea of having a caged bird but I love them aswell so I had the idea that he just stays out So I made him this! He's the happiest birdie now when I take him back to his room he flaps his wings like crazy to get back to it He...

Long screaming Sulphur Crested Story. Skip to the bottom if you dont want to read the essay below :P I've had Freddy for about 12-13 months. he was brought to my avian vet as a "lost" bird. I had brought my quaker in to the vet shortly after Freddy arrived and they told me it had been...

My cockatiel Nikola makes this screaming/ singing noise, sometimes he does this while he's just playing with toys or when he's by a window. He's done this before a few times in the past week, so he doesn't do this every day. Cockatiel singing/screaming? - YouTube My sister is the one talking...

I need help. A friend of mine purchased a young green cheek conure. It is a different color morph, "pineapple" I think? I do not know exactly how old it is or if it is a male or female. After several notices from his apartment complex regarding the birds noise, my friend asked me to take it. I...

Hello Everyone! I have decided to become B&G macaw parent. After reading many books and online resources, there are still a few areas that I would like some advise on and would therefore be very grateful for any information you all could give me. one of my main concerns is regarding the...

I really didn't want to have to post a forum about this. I've Googled everything I could to see if I could help this situation, but it still continues. This started 2 days ago. My 7 month old cockatiel (gender is unknown) Niko keeps yelling every 3 seconds (not quite screaming, but he does...

So Oliver has always screamed for me when I leave the room or come home from somewhere. This isn't much of an issue because the birds are upstairs and you can only sort of hear them when the door is closed. However in the mornings they wake me up with the screaming and I'd like to try to train...

ok so as some of you guys know. I moved into my "second first" apartment with LuLu (my female eclectus) and so far its been great. When we first moved she would call to me whenever I was out of sight but now she's good and really doesn't do it much. But she has started to "call" whenver someone...

Hey there ive had Ruby for approx 6 months now and the last month she gets on these screaming rants which is so loud it scares me half to death! Can anyone help please? I love this bird to death but its getting to the point where I am so close to giving her away :( Please help!:red1:

Hi guys, this isn't really a new problem but I'm a little more concerned now. Lulu occasionally screams. It's not extremely loud, or excessive but I just want to know why she does it. Before I moved, if lulu was upstairs and I was downstairs, it was not bad at all but we have carpet upstairs (...

Hi everyone, I am new to parrot forums. I have a 18 week old (4.5 months) male eclectus parrot named Teddy (aka Big Ted). I have been his mother since he was 9 weeks old. He was on 4 feeds a day then. I have reduced him to 2 feeds per day, 15mls morning feed (half a feed) and he gets 30mls...

My baby is now about 3 months old or so. He screams when he sees me. Now most would think he wants food. Well in the morning he screams LOUDLY when I come downstairs... Whether he's hungry or not. He doesn't scream at my boyfriend... Only me. I will then try to hand feed but he only takes it...

My Green Cheek Conure, Mia, has been screaming all day when she isn't outside of her cage, she starts at 7 in the morning and goes until she goes to bed minus the hours she is out every day. She is fine when she is out of the cage, i don't even have to be in the room. So I was wondering, is...

Hi everyone! I have an adorable little green cheek that I brought home about 2 months ago. Ducky and I were instant friends from the moment I saw her. She loves to be with me and when I'm home, we eat together, watch tv together and when I'm doing things around the house like feeding the cat...

Hi all, I posted an earlier thread about my new 8 month old Indian Ringneck, Remy, that we've now had for four days, since this past Saturday. He's doing pretty well with stepping up training with an occasional hard bite here and there when he is grumpy or tired or doesnt want to focus, but we...

Hi All, I inherited Coqui from my 93y/o mother in law at Christmas time. I'm a first time owner and Coqui is around 10 years old. We have all had to adjust to each other and are doing OK. I'm still having a problem with the screaming. No problem with the morning and evening "call of the wild"...

Hello, I am a 16 year old sophomore in high school living with my grandparents. About 9 years ago, my grandmother rescued an abused Citron-Crested Cockatoo, Ayla. Nobody wanted her, so my grandmother took her in. Soon, Ayla began to attack everyone but me. Ayla is scared of men and very fearful...

We made the mistake of "rescuing" a year-old canary-winged parakeet that was at Petco for 6 months and whose "personality totally changed" in the time she was there according to staff. I think she has separation anxiety because she screams all of the time when she is OUT of the cage with us...

HI, I am recently owned by a 8month old Triton Cockatoo named Maggie May. She was previously had by a 12 yr old boy who adored her but his sister was highly allergic. She was my early bday present from my husband. I asked all the right questions and was told she was a sweet good natured baby...

Hi all! I'm new on this forum, if I'm breaking any rules (or if this is a redundant thread) just let me know, oops! Thanks. My husband and I had been talking about getting a bird for quite some time, and finally settled on the most gorgeous 2-year-old Sun Conure. We picked him/her up last week...

Coconut is a 4 year old Umbrella Cockatoo I adopted from a family 4 days ago. When I met him he was screaming and banging his head around in his cage. It was honestly frightening since this is my first experience with a large parrot. The owners let me put my hand inside his cage to show me that...

And its a biggun! Yesterday me and my fiancee purchased our first bird, she is a two year old Senegal Parrot. We bought her from a local bird lover who was selling his five birds in order to be able to focus on his bible studies. She is lovely and had a wonderful, sweet, comical personality. Her...

Just this week, Hiccup has started screaming. It's this high pitched scream that I'm sure all conure owners have heard. It doesn't hurt my ears, she's not that loud, but she only does it every once and a while and it scares the crap out of me every time. Yesterday she did it five times while I...

Dear, Cockatoo owners! I've got to ask, how loud are your Too's? According to internet research, Cockatoo's make your head split, eyes pop and ears bleed with their screeching! :18: Are they really that bad? If so, how on earth do you cope? Anyway, I'm aware of morning and evening screaming...
