Help with screaming...

Hey everyone,

 

I am in need of advice with my grey, COCO… I introduced him a few months ago when we moved into my new apt and he was freaked out… Well he is very much back to his old self again… and talking even more… but also making a lot of noise (ringing like the phone, biting on his cage) and my neighbors are starting to complain… I’m not sure what to do as far as keeping him from screaming… I never covered his cage in the night and wondering if this is something I should consider… He is 13 yrs old now… Any help or advice would be great…

 

Thanks,

Nerissa

The only thing you can do to reduce screaming is ignore him completely when he does. Get up and walk away. This denies him the attention he is obviously seeking. Unfortunately, the screaming will get worse before it gets better, as he will scream for longer and longer until he realises you arent going to respond.

 

I'm just curious as to whether any people in your building have children? Because I believe that a grey is normally no louder than a two year old throwing a tantrum. I wonder if they would complain about that? ;)
