I am working with Carl to try and train him to use a different sound to call...especially when I am still in the room and sitting less than 5 feet away from him. Hes got plenty of new toys in his cage and plays/chews them regularly, so its not for lack of distractions/boredom.
Now. Ive been trying to use the click/reward (pine nut) each time he says "what are you doing?" Or gives kiss noises instead of his high pitched call. But I worry about having to use TOO many pine nuts. Is it a matter of just using them until he regularly responds to just the clicker? Will this cause any long term health issues?
Im trying to be vigilant in rewarding/responding when he chatters or does other noises other than the screech, even if its with just a "good boy Carl! Thats the way!" But my husband is starting to get really annoyed...
