no his food never changed his poop his ok still the same i cleaned hosue friday moved his cage

and put it back and his toys are the same thank you for helping me out

[Jayd]

Thank you, very possible the change in day and night, could have bothered him. Yes, leave the TV or radio on, Find him some outside toys plus his towel. Remember, this takes time, maybe a little setback, just be patient. Question, was the cage returned to the same spot after you cleaned? How old is this baby? Don't let him see your worried or upset, he can read your emotions! So don't show your upset until you leave the room! It seems he might be missing you, he's already moved from one family to yours, maybe a little more attention, sit by his cage and read to him, show him the pictures. This takes time.

They can be so super sensitive to anything new & sometimes it's almost impossible to tell what the problem is.

 

Really good job figuring this out!!

[Jayd]

Thanks

Great deductive reasoning on figuring out what it was.

 

Some Greys are very sensitive to the slightest change. I knew a lady a few years ago, that simply moved a throw rug 3 inches and the grey acted like some major change in living environment had taken place. She moved it back, the clouds parted, the sunshined and the angels sang. All was good in that Greys eyes once again.

Have you ever hear of Temple Grandin? She has Asperger's Syndrome (a form of Autism) and has a PHd. Her work is with cows going to slaughter, and how to make their last time on earth calm. She gets called for consults all the time. Anyway, one time a slaughter house called her because the cows would no longer walk calmly back into their pen, they would not cross a certain area, although previously they had no issue with that area. She found the problem in seconds. A sign had fallen, and it scared the cows, she put it back up the right way (it was hanging funny), and the problem was solved! Her book "Animals in Translation" is a very interesting read, I highly recommend it!
