Excessive screaming is a learned behavior that we teach our birds.

Covering your feathered companion with a blanket only teaches him or her that you will cover the cage when the scream gets out of hand.

Yelling at a screaming parrot gives the parrot the attention it seeks. Ignoring a screaming parrot is not the answer either.

They won’t hurt them, but why would you give them to parrots?

Would buying a flight harness help after all?

This little parrot didn’t have a great home life when I bought her last July. She has since had a full vet workup in Aug.
