How To Stop Your Parrot From Screaming | Reduce Screeching By Doing This!

- Hey Bird Gang! In this video we go over some tips to stop your parrot from screaming all day whether it's for attention, to get on your nerves, or to call you. I share with you how I reduced with Elfie the Senegal Parrot from screaming 80% of the day!
Although, it's impossible to keep your parrot quiet 100% of the time (its what they do), we can reduce unwanted yelling big time!
P.S. Parrots tend to be loud during sunrise and sunset (some things you can't avoid!).

Mine screams for my food. I can’t stop it now I created a monster
Yes mine does
Give him some in his cage.
I have a greencheeek conure and he screams every morning around 7am and I love my sleep😭 and when everyone wakes up he finally goes to sleep which is a big bruh moment for us
Hahah 😂 sounds like a parrot 🦜 to me
Ha ha same here🤣😂
Lmaoo I have 2 Alexandrians who do the exact same! It's 8:51 AM here now and they are sleeping again after screaming.
SAMEE
My lovebird wakes up to scream hours before his 12hrs of sleep and then he goes to sleep for a few more hours.
I can’t ignore him! If I leave the room he screams but then he cries my name and it’s heart breaking.
awwwhh 😢❤️❤️
Easy fix read what I wrote about telling him where you are. They panic bc you disappeared on him. He will learn not to yell
omg same I also left him too
I reacted whenever my bird yelled and i thought that it would make him smarter but i was just making a bad habit...
Guy talks about diet.
Daniel sits on shoulder stealing my pudding
Oh really
I have just adopted a older Senegal and your videos have been amazingly helpful, thank you
Happy to help!!
I just do it back at mine and he loves it.
hahah you show that parrot who's top screamer in the house!
@@parrotsco.3224 lol
If I would do it, my neighbourhood probably grab their pitchforks and come knocking on my door.
Hahah
Suggestion for next topic - How to address aggressive male behavior during mating season.
This is a good topic and I was just dealing with this for the last few weeks lol Elfie turns into a big tough guy and tries to bully everyone around his cage.
Another thing u can do that works for some screaming is to always tell your bird where you are going. I tell my bird I'm going upstairs and he knows that word and where I am. I tell him I'm going out now and he knows. I don't have to tell him where he can see me. If I forgot he usually panic yells and I will say I'm upstairs. They are very smart and will associate you word with where you are at. It works. They need to know where you are. You are their flock mate. They will settle down.
Thank you! I also like how calm you are and to see you with your bird. My green cheek is screaming as I'm watching this but I'm staying calm and hoping it will work. It was much easier with my first green cheek because I was in a house. Now I'm in an apartment so I stress about possible complaints.
Ohh yeah totally get that I’m the same way too, my opinion is that a lot of conures are NOISY which is a good/bad thing but those sun conures screeches make my ears hurt haha
@@parrotsco.3224 😆. Thankfully I chose a green cheek conure...
@@parrotsco.3224 Some of your suggestions are working! Thank you!
Smart . Good info. It's not the screams it's the pitch. The irony is that a.......noisy parrot is, for the most part, a happy bird. The irony. God bless
As everyone else has said, you nailed it. Being in a studio apartment, working from home and having zoom meetings with work, they are not "happy campers" whenever they hear my Cockatiel "screech". Now even if they hear a wild bird outside, they make a comment. I had to admit that I was part of the problem, I spoiled "my precious" (say it like Gollum...). Tried your suggestions and I'm seeing improvement and my stress / anxiety is lowering also! Thanks!
Great to hear!!
You're so much more relatable then other channels I've wat he'd to educate myself on how to look after my little fluff. Thanks for the insight.
Bruh i really respect your harts in the comments like after 3 months or 4 and you still hearting comments
Thanks! I do it for the birds :)
Thank you much for the advice I'm babysitting one now and this was a great help to me already quieter after 2 days
What you say makes sense. I'm going to try everything you said. Thank you very much.
Alice is beautiful and loves playing
Thank you so much.It worked
Just got a new parrot. Several days of being fine, then day 4 was the challenge, as he would screech for me as soon as he saw me. I will try this, as we are in training mode and this will be a part of it. I want him to be a well adjusted man, but so far, he's mad at me for walking away. No worries, here, just reinforcing the good behavior. Day 1 today. Thank you SOOOOOOO much for this.
Nice!! Keep me posted!
Thank you. My GCC is driving me insane with his screaming and I often do not react the best way, as it can be frustrating. Will definitely use these tips!
You got it 🫡
As always you have an amazing videos as I said keep it up 🌹🌹🌹
Thanks Fahad!!
Thanks Fahad!!
Thank you so much 😊
Screaming! I had a large white umbrella with a huge set of lungs. H liked to have a full on scream session about twice a day. The jack russell joined in with bassett type baying & the chihuahua filled in the soprano yelps. I regarded it as a celebration of life and was known to join in myself. Rarely did he embarrass me by screeching innappropriatey. The scream sesh would be accompanied with dancing up and down the perch with wing and crest displays. I think he was saying "life is great!"
You saved my ear 👂😌 🌺
Thanks. I'm still working with my Alexandrine Parrot. She is in the weaning process and is 9 weeks old. The last week has been a nightmare as she has just learned how to scream and is doing it constantly. Even when she isn't hungry for formula.
Thanks you! I just got a cockatiel today and he starts screeching very loudly when someone leaves the room! Other than that his constant chirping is fine
Yep Elfie used to do this, it’s a flock call to find out where you’re at or sometimes it’s for attention haha
Hi! Anything you'd recommend for parakeets specifically? Mine tends to screech most when there's sound coming from my computer/phone/tv. Any ideas? Thanks in advance!
I recently got a 2nd bird, a nanday conure I used this strategy on my cockatiel about a year ago and it worked! Praying this will work on my Nanday. Thank you!
There ya go!!! How was it with the Conure?
@@parrotsco.3224 went great! We rescued him from our neighbors porch and ended up finding the owner! So its good to know their bird is much better with behavior lol
Thank for this video i bought a red lored amazon yesterday and he wont be quiet unless i cover his cage and i bought hin from my cousin and the bird can talk but he bites but not hard but hes biting harder now so i will need tips on that but i will do this so thank you!
This was so helpful!!
Yassss! 👏🏽 🖖🏽🦜❤️
You make me want to be a bird owner again with this knowledge 🐦
It’s a process forsure, can be frustrating at first. What type of bird did you used to have?
@@parrotsco.3224 Parakeets and love birds, but have always wanted something like your Senegal
Can't go wrong with a Sennie!
Thanks for the video =)
Sir I have been having 2 Alexandrine parrots for over 8 years now. They were with me since they were born and I love them a lot. Me and my mother had tolerated and made terms with the fact that they are gonna yell.
Now, out of nowhere, I have developed misophonia ( certain sounds trigger and stress me ) and my parrots shouting for no reason is one of that. I have been trying your suggestions but it's not making a difference.
My parrots also don't like to come out of their cage, but I will try to get them out tonight after work. I was crying today because I was so stressed out from the screaming because its been over 1.5 months since my misophonia and it's not even improved a bit.
I feel very guilty when they shout and I constantly get thoughts that I'm not fulfilling their needs and stealing from them their right to fly in the wilderness. The problematic behaviour is not their's, but mine because their screaming did not stress me out for 8 years.
I would really appreciate if someone can offer me any advice as I'm at my wit's end. The thought of having to part with my parrots hurts and hopefully I can come up with a solution.
My conure screeches as I drive in the driveway! So by the time I get in the house everyone knows I’m home ! I researched before buying - but breeder did not indicate he’d be noisy😢 I’ve got him on chop and seed and now trying to move him to a top quality pellet - unfortunately he’s not keen ! Any tips to get him to eat the pellets please? Awesome video by the way
!
Thanks for the video! We have 2 cockatiels at home, and we love them dearly. The young lady has started screaming an amount now that she has gotten comfortable at home... She literally wants 24/7 attention! Will take your tips to heart, though it's very hard to ignore her for 2-3 hours non-stop. Kinda impossible to Work From Home at times...
I do have 1 question... We unfortunately don't have a room just for them, so we leave them in the kitchen. It's the most reasonable place for them to sleep, but I fear it's never 100% quiet for them since there's no door and it's near the bathroom. This could be a major factor why the girl screams. The boy is cute but quiet as a monk (apart from his lovely singing).
Thank you❤️
Happy to help Rose!
How long has my bird been screaming in the morning and jumping from one corner to another
And it's hard to get it
I just got my green cheek conure a few days ago and have been working on making him try me. He eats treats from my hand and will let me pet him but he also goes out of his way to bite my finger, lightly at first but then progressively harder. He also screams a LOT which is fine with me but it sounds like he’s upset or calling to something and I’m not sure what to do.
I also feel so bad because his wings are clipped (not my choice I’m planning on not clipping them again) and he really wants to fly but doesn’t go anywhere and I can tell it frustrates him :(
I feel me holding the beak firmly enough and saying "no, that's my flesh" helped mine make the chirp of wrath but not bite? But you have to do it everytime they bite during play or cuddles.
They get overwhelmed and don't know what to do with themselves
Thankxxxx! I need this my quaker is so so laud ^^
❤️🖖🏽🦜
Heyy does this also work for cockatails? I'm nog english so i'm not sure if they also fit in the category parrot🙈
Woowww😍😍sooo cute parrot
#Love_From_India🇮🇳
Thanks! Shout out from San Diego, Califas! West Coast 🇺🇸
My lovebird and cockatiel raised jenday and sun conure mix screams when i come in the room,i come out of it, and a few times when im not even there. he also sometimes deafens me when i have him on my shoulder and he screams. help.
recently got a new green cheek conure. i played with him a lot to get him to know me (not too much playtime) but now when i go away he screams! haha
Someone likes your company haha
A green cheeked parrot
Thank you soooo much my bird won’t stop screaming especially when I have online classes
No problem :)
Really helped me my ring neck is literally like a siren
Awesome 👏🏽
My cockatiel won't stop yelling at me whenever he isn't on my shoulder. Before I watched this video I had already been trying ignoring him and then letting him out after 5-10 minutes of silence. He still has the same behavior even after doing this for a few weeks. How long did it take for your bird to completely stop? Idk if I'm doing something wrong.
I have had a sun conure for 10 years now. Everyone in the family gives him attention I even take naps with him and we give him cardboard boxes so he can play because he loves them. But recently he's been screaming for literally anything (if we are eating he screams, when we are in the sofa watching tv he screams etc.) My parrot is an outside of the cage bird he is never put inside because he hates it. If he is inside he wont stop screaming (keep in mind his cage is huge like 6 feet high). It is very frustrating because the screams are sooo loud and it hurts our ears. I tried to change his diet to fruits and vegetables and some sunflower seeds but he would not stop screaming because he wants only sunflowers and peanuts. It is strange to me that he is being more loud and aggressive for no reason he is starting to fly to my visitors and bites them. He started biting my sister when he was never aggressive with her. I don't know what to do anymore. Any tips?
I finally transitioned my flock to BirdTricks pellets! All the way from my budgie to my Miligold macaw. Made a world of difference with my macaw he’s new to my flock only 3 weeks now. Severely underweight so skinny I have never seen a bird so skinny was on bread and sunflower seeds cage was bare just had a 3 inch long perch major atrophy broke my heart! But now he is gaining weight at a healthy rate! growing his feathers back from where he has been plucking. He has lost his weird not normal odor has the normal macaw smell which I love! The great thing is that I can feed the same size pellets to all my birds because it’s cold pressed! He’s a bit hormonal right now because of the new diet but it will calm down, the proper nutrition has certainly put him in to a hormonal state because he is getting what he needs but we work through it by trick training. His cage bound atrophy is going away! Diet is everything in birds!
Awesome!! Love to hear you’ve taken so much time to give your birdies the best life! Keep up the good work :)
How is your Miligold now? I just adopted a Catalina Macaw 4 weeks ago and she is having some screaming issues.
Thank you so much for the videos!
My senegal parrot will join the family next month. I am very excited and nervous, trying to learn all I can about training and care. I am watching all your videos.
I would like you to explain in other one how you do your parrot's nail with a nail file.
By the way, where is the link to join the facebook group you talked about? I don't find it. 🙈
Have a nice day!
@FeatherLove thanks for the support! Sure can definitely explain in a video. I use a cat/animal nail clipper as Elfie doesn't let me hold his foot haha. He gets wrapped in a towel then on his back, my GF hold him and I ever so Carefully trim one nail at a time at the very tip. I recommend you take him to your local bird store and have them do it while you watch to get an idea of this. Ideally you want to be able to train our parrot to be held on its back and comfortable being wrapped in a small towel before you attempt yourself. It can cause him/her to become scared of you/the trim in the future. Nail filing would be ideal as its easier, some parrots won't go for it, hence the above process. FB group is in the works haha will post in on all previous video descriptions in the near future.
@@parrotsco.3224 Thanks for your reply and your time!
I was thinking about the nail file because, as you said, it is easier and safer. I won't dare to use a nail clipper without seeing the veins and with zero experience. 😳
Towel training sounds interesting too.
See you in your next video!
No problem, p.s. if you have a baby parrot they are much more “forgiving” haha for new experiences as they are learning 🙂
Hello! I also have a Senegalese parrot. He is 5 years old and a male. İt's been screaming a lot for about 2 years. I tried many methods, I watched this video. Unfortunately it doesn't. I wonder: will my parrot become a quieter bird when he gets older? Are these cries hormonal? Sorry for this bad english, I use google translate.
My friend has a 20 year old Amazon parrot. When bojie parrot screams she covers the cage or yells at him or holds a stick to scare the poor parrot. Please advice
Watch the video
Is there any kind of dog whistle or anything that birds don’t like and they’ll stop yelling because they hear it I live somewhere that my landlord has birds and they are really loud and it drives me crazy. Is there anything that they’ll stop yelling if they hear it, maybe like a dog whistle or something like that.
I have to train my bird to stop bc my dad hates the screaming and he says that he’s gonna get rid of him cuz of it 😒
:(
Good idea. Time to skin it, cook it and eat it. No more screaming and screeching. Down my gullet and out where the sun doesn't shine :^)
My parrot screams so loud whenever he sees me carrying the laundry basket or if I grab any type of spray bottle, he keeps screaming until I put the hide the bottle or the laundry basket. so what to do ?
I have a female African senegal parrot she 72yrs old n looks just like urs. 🤓🤓
Thanx for the 411💖💖💖
Awesome!!
72 wow that's great
Thanks alot for your useful video, but i have another problem. My bird is nagging all the time since i got him a new bird friend. Even when i am in the room or he is out of the cage .. all day long.. pip.. pip.. i have tried everying, i still have no clue what he wants.. please help..
My parrot is one month old and it screaming in such a way I just can't , I learned the reason why it is when she hears the sound of the other parrots no way that I can keep her away from them so can you help.
And maybe I can try something to stop my bird screaming? Or shall you tell me what do I do. I have tried 1000.10000 things and I can’t stop her screaming and she just needs me is there anything she wants?
My bird nonstop screams if I am not in the same room as her. It has been going on got 2 years now and I have tried nearly everything (I could give her 8 hours of attention and she would still scream until she goes to sleep if I leave.) It is nearing surrender at this point as now she has become a trigger for me.
I have 2 budgies, and when i go back and forth to the kitchen on weekends to cook, clean, etc. they scream their lungs out. If i go back, i dont pay attention to them, but i do stuff in the room so they probably think that i am responding to their call. Staying in one room is not an option. How can I train them not to yell when I also go back and forth in rooms? Please help.
Hi my African Grey is 4 years old recently he picked up a habit of sneezing and coughing very loudly.. I am very sensitive because I went through a lot of trauma in my life before I got my parrot..im getting very sick as I can't deal with the irritating sounds and he does it for my attention. I'm actually thinking of giving him away as I can't take it anymore.. I have heated arguments with My son and husband about this.. They tell me to ignore him but Im at my wits end.. Please help me. I also work from home so I need to concentrate.. Sometimes I think of letting him fly away.. But deep down I love him and don't want to be cruel. But he is testing my patience..
My bird won't come out his cage and if I put my hand in he makes a loud whistling noice and bobbing his head and im not sure if he is scared? And as soon as I leave him he starts squawking
Hi good morning.. I have a india ringneck parrot I get him/she Dec 5 and still running from me.
i'm definitely going to give this a go i have a Indian ring neck parakeet who has become so vocal and so loud and I've been struggling a lot with her recently and is really frustrating, btw i didn't buy her shes wild i had to rescue her so i didn't even gt time to do much research on her. do you have any recommendations for good toys?
Yep give it a try, part of the screaming could be because it wants attention. Important to spend quality time. I usually do this with Elfie in the late afternoon when I’m done working for the day. Scratches, lubbies , trick training before bed. And when you say wild, as I’m caught in the wild and used to live with a wild flock?
For toys I would try a variety, to figure out what works best. I.e. wood toys, thin wood toys, straw toys, colorful ones etc. you can go to your local bird store and grab a variety. I bought Elfie a foraging box and I add pellets inside so they are hard to get to but he spends a lot of energy trying to get them all day lol this helps a lot. Lots of toys will help your parrot self entertain part of the day.
Boo, my avatar, is a rescue bird. His first owner gave him up for adoption because the noise bothered her SO. He is much quieter than my first Conure, or maybe my hearing has been adapted by the prior 30 years. In any event the more quiet it’s humans are the quieter the bird will be. Conures are still going to scream at 120 db if something bothers them.
I have two parrots, a 8 month old, female African Grey Congo & a Double Yellow Head Amazon… My female joined my family 1st, she started out pretty quiet & shy & slowly but surely became obsessed with me & turned into a total stalker…If, I leave the room she whistles extremely LOUD! & or fly off her cage and go look for me upstairs. The whistling & screeching is annoying …
My Double Yellow Head is a male & he is new, & he is pretty laid back…But, now I see he is getting bad influenced by my AGC😡& Im now trying to nip in the bud his weird noise he makes now when I leave the room …
He makes like an owl noise & she does a lot of whistling …
What has been working for me , is me putting her in her cage. And covering the front part , like a blinder … so, she can’t see if I’m there or not & I noticed that has helped or limited him & definitely stopped her as she can’t see me. Thanks for the video …
I would have tried the ignoring part but I have to nip it in the bud as she is no longer alone & I don’t want her influencing the new one…
these are some good tips.
if theres something i managed to learn on my own its that birds are like children
So true!! Haha 😆 preparing yourself for the future
my parrot keeps yelling and like u can hear it outside and its very embarrassing so i always have 2 yell back or talk 2 him about his yelling i will try ignoring it
We've finally brought our caique home on Saturday and I really want to train her when she's out (she seems to be comfortable with us), but she doesn't really accept seeds as treats (nor does she eat them much from a bowl,, she greatly prefers her veggies and fruits) and neither millet. Can I just reward her with her favourite veggie/fruit after she does good job or should I also try nuts?
Congrats on your new Caique friend!! Yeah so after about 1-2 days of settling I would start working on training. Important thing to note, if you give your parrot access to fruits/seeds in their bowl it will make the value of the treat less tempting when training. Like if you had pizza 🍕all the time and someone offered you pizza...meh haha if your parrot likes fruits only give it small fruit pieces for training, you can also try nuts or lay out a bunch of different treats on a table and see which one it likes the most.
@@parrotsco.3224 Thank you! Also, can I ask one more question? When we let her out of her cage, she often flies to us straight away, but she keeps screeching (even though we aren't doing anything to her and let her just sit) and is quiet only for a short amount of time (I don't count normal noises as screeching). Does that mean we bother her, or what could be the cause of it?
@@michaelazavodska7682 its tough to assess and give a recommendation without seeing your interact with your Caique. Sounds like your Caique really wants to hang out with you guys and she could just be excited screeches haha. In general, I ignore unwanted behavior/don't give attention but I reward wanted behavior with treats, attention, lubbies, etc. It might just take some time for her to settle in and get used to a routine with you. I would start target/clicker training to establish communication and working on taming. :) Hope this helps!!
My parrot has been biting me nightly. All I have to do is move and chomp. I think he's hormonal but don't know what to do. After I put him back in his cage, he's screaming non stop. Then husb starts yelling at me to shut him up. I can't. Normally he is very loving. He throws his pellets out, then is over hungry. I gave him people food, but he threw that too. Update. I found out if I feed him b4 I sit with him, that stops 99% of it. He was over hungry.
I have 2 cockatiels, its been two days they are screaming alot and keep flying and can't sit quiet for 5 even mins. They start screaming and make a high pitch sound. Then they sit quiet and sleep or play quietly. But again in the evening they start to scream around 6-7 pm. No matter what we do, scritch them, play with them, give them food, water but they do the same. And it cannot be ignored and it is very annoying. Even after giving the attention they keep screaming. Can you please help me ?
Foraging toys with treats hidden in them and they be so busy they’ll forget to sing opera during those times. 😂
My parrot doesn't scream..
Can u suggest me anything so that my parrot's scream
What can I do??
I have a macaw and I believe she was force weaned because she has a very complex relationship with food. She screams at least 1-2 minutes during my 20 minute lunch. That doesn’t sound like much but its LOUD. I have a Senegal and African Gray and they have no screaming issues. Also for pellets, Harrisons and Tops are the best. Zupreem and Kaytee aren’t very good.
Good and bad is subjective, it’s definitely better than having birds on high fat and carb seed diets. I’ve had my guy on Tops and he loses weight very fast because it’s not wholesome so I add a few local sugar free pellets as well. Kaytee organics has a sugar free version also very good.
Sorry to hear about your birb screams during lunch.
I agree that almost any pellet is better than a seed diet. I should also be more specific, because Zupreem makes some pellets that score relatively high, and others like zupreem Fruitblend that score very low. I know this because I fed Zupreem Fruit Blend for a long time and my Senegal developed a nutrient deficiency. My friend has better luck with Zupreem Naturals. I haven’t tried much from Kaytee so maybe they make some high end pellets, but they also market their seed mixes as all inclusive diets. I talked to my avian vet about the well known Nutriberries that have “all the benefits of pellets” according to their label, yet my vet said they should only be used as treats and make a crap staple food item. Tops is not readily accepted by as many birds so I wonder if your senegal was simply not eating it. Mine seems to grind it to dust more so than eat it so I mix it with Harrisons to make sure that she is getting enough nutrition.
Yeah he definitely eats it’s it and any brand of pellets alone will not usually be enough to balance a birds diet.
Sorry, forgot to address the lunch thing. I just wear ear plugs so its not a big deal. Like you said, there are some things that can’t be avoided. I’m extremely grateful that all of my parrots are quiet until I wake up. I rarely, if ever get woken up by my parrots. I can tell from my Catalina Macaws behavior and some of her vocabulary that she didn’t come from a great household. She did well today at not screaming. She screamed for a total of maybe 10 seconds during lunch today and maybe 30 seconds outside of lunch. For the first time she screamed while I was holding her but I couldn’t figure out what she wanted.
I just got my umbrella cockatoo
Sometimes he starts yelling like crazy wht can I do🙆♀️
Off topic but you’re good looking 👀
Lol thanks!
I have a female cockatiel who I've had about 4 years. She isn't tame. Hisses at me and anyone that gets near her and just screeches non stop. Now I know your not supposed to shout at them but I'm at the end of my tether with her and there's been a few times I've basically screamed at her to shut up
Hi, thanks for the vid and the tips. I recently got my first bird, a barraband budgie, which got raised by hand (idk how to say it i'm french sorry but i think you understood what i meant^^), it's been 5 days already, but he is screaming often, the breeder told me that he was used to get attention from human, and he lacked of contact that's why he is screaming, but actually, as the breeder told me i tried to let him fly a bit and pet it, but he is quite scared even if i'm sweet and careful to him. Should I still ignore when he is screaming ? I don't consider the bird like a toy , I just want him to be happy. Even if it's annoying as hell when he is yelling T_T
ah and also, if when he is finally calm, and you come back at him he screams again, do you ignore him again ? until you can come to him and he stays silent?
It sounds lien your bird has separation issues, it could be best to establish a routine of in/out of cage time and focus on quality time outside of the cage. Birds do this in the wild (scream) to call their flock so it’s normal to them but can sound loud to us. In time with an established routine, quality time, and ignoring the screams for attention things will be better. And yes when your bird is quite for a few mins then you can come over. Sometimes people will queue a whistle for attention instead of a scream
@@parrotsco.3224 Thanks for the answer, those days he has been more calm, doing a little song sometimes but that wasn't screaming ^^hope this will continue, thanks a lot you got a new sub ;)
@@parrotsco.3224 Ah also, wanted to ask a thing, you seems really close with your bird that's really nice to see, but if you have to work , does he manage to stay alone ? Is he fine with that ? because i'm gonna work in september so i'll only see him the morning, at noon, and also the afternoon/ night so, if he got toys to play with , is it enough ?
@@galatea5605 I work from home so he's with me all day. Kind of a unique situation. In general different toys it really likes/enriching environment and when you get home just make sure you spend some quality time :)
i have indian ringneck im on top floor in my home and he is just calling me i cant go i have work he is already outside of his cage.
What type of bird should I get? I’m kind of thinking about getting a Sun Conure!
Check out the best starter bird video on the channel!
If you love your eardrums being blown out, go for it
I have a baby cockatiel that does not stop screaming, he screams all day literally and i dont know what to do
What are some treats I can give my parrot as treats?
You can try to get a bunch of different ones in little piles and see which you bird likes the most. I use raw almonds, cashews, macadamia nuts, sunflower seeds, pine nuts, Brazil nuts, and walnuts as my go to treats for Elfie. I mix them up, keeps him guessing haha
I have an Indian Rose Ringed Parakeet. He screams alottt and my family is trying to give it to someone else. Please help !!! How to reduce it. We have done all the mistakes like rewarding his screaming etc etc...what to do now ?
I can't even do the ignoring thing as my family lack patience
Nice video. suggestion for next video-1.How to make an affordable play stand for cockatiels and budgies? 2. Can cockatiels and budgies live in the same cage? 3.can you introduce your hand raised budgie to your other wild budgies and still have the bond with your hand raised budgie?
Thanks for the input will look into this 📝
I trained my bird to respect the duster, I act like I need to dust where he is when he's annoying me lol he's learned to stay out of areas I don't like but he still screams sometimes.
Yes, parrots will perpetuate any behavior that elicits the desired response.
I will try to ignore him/ cockatiel . He's in heat for 4 months now , nothing new .He's in heat 9 months of the year. Young bird 4 years old.
I can't enjoy music or t.v ,reading. I put him in the hallway .If he still screams I cut the light out/ and cover cage .He has a mate ,old cockatiel. He just figured out how to do it. If i didn't love him I would have given him away. I'm also afraid they would let him go. He is a pest .
Thanks...
I Started today. When I eat lunch he makes noise so I put him in the hallway. I was wondering why he knows I'm eating lunch. Now I get it, It's play time for him. I let him go off . I always was dishes and listen to music afterwards of course if not working. Well I left him in apt ,usually I put him in the hallway.
It went better than expected. He mad noise but was not constant ,pauses in between.
When he stopped I went to the cage and told What he likes to hear ' Your My friend ? ' Good boy ' stuff like that. He just got in from free time so I didn't play with him. I have read what you said ,but I never heard anyone say it Thanks . Oh ,I also didn't make eye contact with him until he stopped. I'm sure in time he will be much better. Funny his screaming didn't bother me as much since you explained it.
You have a nice bird..Thank you again
Awesome James! Keep up the good work and keep me posted, definitely also had to work with Elfie to teach him how to be more independent and not need me in the same room as him 24/7 🙌🏽🦜
When i take my bird out of the cage i play with her and she talks to me ,like give me a kiss or hug i give her alot of attention, she is so smart she will sing with me and dances to the music.she is a wonderfull conure bird so give then alot lot of attention.
Hi!can you do a video on how to make your birds stop fighting? ;^; last night they nearly killed each other TvT
ThenBirdBae: tell me what to do
Do you think that a bird can stay quiet while I’m at school
I might be getting a pineapple conure soon. Do you have any tips to start out and how I can create a bond with her?
I know that I’m in no position to speak but I had originally wanted to buy a pineapple conure myself but I had a friend help and more research they need ALOT of attention there very playful and they can be noisy but I’ll provide some TH-cam videos :)

@@wow1602 I'm so grateful for your input. I'm at home a lot so I can give her the attention she needs, and that is why her current owners are selling her (because they cant give her the time she needs). I am getting her I just have to wait for the money and it could be any day now. I have been doing research everyday since I found out I might get her. Thanks again for the tips :D
I got my first cockatiel She screams And wakes me up. I Try to ignore and She Started Not to eat from my hand(she used to eat from my hand) I Was Confused Alot! I really don't know....I still didn't tame her....Please help....:(
Welcome to bird life 😝😈 🦜
@@parrotsco.3224 She actually scares me 😂 She does have a strong personality tho.😳
i give my parrot a pallet diet, i ignore them when they yelling, none of it is working.....
I adopted a rescue budgie who mimics R2D2 screams. It’s unbearable. She’s so much louder than my 2 other birds. They seem to be annoyed by the screaming also. I didn’t even know budgies were capable of such insanely loud pitched sounds. My other budgie chirps very softly and with a lower pitch. I don’t know what to do. They all eat veggie chop, pellets, and limited seeds. She’s totally untrained and I’m working on it. But it may not work out with this new bird at all, this loud insane screech is just terrible and all day
U don't get pellets in my area
I have a female cockatiel and she wont stop screaming, no matter what i do! She will just keep on screaming even if she is sitting on my shoulder! I give her lots of toys but she loses interest so fast and just wants to sit on my shoulder and non stop screaming!
I think all cockatiel are same cuz mine do the same 😩😩
My Canore Screams when ever I leave the room, how do I stop her. She must be with all the time
Sounds like attention calls/contact calling. Practice setting up an enriching environment in the cage. If Elfie has spurts of screaming for attention or to get out. He won’t get out until he’s quiet for a period of time. If he yells for an hour straight (doesn’t really happen anymore), I say, have at it Elfie I’ll be here when you’re done haha. Reinforcement for screaming will lead to more of it.
What if I have 2 korelas how to make them shut up
Please help I am loosing my mind
😲
What if the bird ignores the toys? 😭
