1) Feed a name brand, pelleted diet. We have only recently began switching to a pellet diet and they are offered a spoon of each brand to see which they prefer. They get Harrison's, Lafeber, Roudybush, and Mazuri. They appear to prefer the Harrison's and we are about ready to commit to it. They get more fresh food than pellets though, a rainbow of veggies/fruits/grains/sprouts and the CAG gets some yogurt/egg/bone

2) Spend more time interacting with your pet.As soon as I get home from work they are let out to socialize and roam about. Norma likes to watch me make their dinner and Rosie likes to ride my shoulder all night. Hardy just walks about the outside of his cage, he doesn't like being messed with but I'm trying to get him used to hands.

3) If you would become bored sitting all day in a cage similar to your pet’s , the parrot will become just as bored and frustrated.They get as many toys as I can cram into their cage without scaring them or limiting space. They get a lot of shredding and foraging toys because they are their favorites.

4) Expose it to more natural sunlight or Grow lights (Full-spectrum lamps, UVA & UVB) that are set to be on in sync with natural day length.They basically live in a sunroom, but I worry that might not be good for them either.

5) Be sure room temperature is neither too warm, too cold or too dry.
Keep a non-toxic potted plant growing in the room. If the plant is not thriving, your parrot won’t either. My favorites are chemically untreated, ornamental pepper plants.This is why I worry about the sunroom, it gets quite warm... though it gets quite warm in every room in my house and the sunroom isn't any hotter than my own bedroom is when I get home from work. I don't run the AC much, it is set to 82 most of the time. We live in a very hot and humid climate during most of the year and you just get used to the 100F weather with 70%+ humidity. It is a PITA, but I try to make sure they are given the same comforts as me(fresh cool water, fresh cool foods, shaded areas, fans. They also have an air purifier)

6) Keep the pet where it has visual contact with family members it is bonded to.They are basically in the center back of the house and can see almost all movement in the house. The house has an open floor plan and then they are also let out to follow me all they want. Only Rosie follows me though.

7) Be sure it has a large, spacious cage with climbing areas. Cages are never too large.I'd say they have decent room, though I always want to give them more. One day I shalt have an aviary, but for now I think they are ok.

8) Have plenty of large diameter perches going at different angles.check

9) Do not place its cage near air vents or in stressful areas of the house.check

10) Allow the bird (with properly clipped wings and no predatory dogs or cats) to spend time on top of its cage or on a T-post.

11) Expose the bird to TV programs it seems to enjoy.We don't have TV, but there are 5 of them altogether, so I think they can keep each other entertained?

12) Give it plenty of safe objects to gnaw on and crack open.check

13) Turn the lights off at night.check

14) Don’t throw a cover over your pet or move its cage when it squawks.check

15) Keep your parrot’s environment as dust free as possible by frequently changing your HVAC filters and using high efficiency ones; and by vacuuming frequently (with the parrot out of ear range).check, and boy do they create a lot of dust at times!

16) Mist your parrot off frequently with a plant spray bottle. If the bird is fearful and cringes back, begin slowly and offer it food rewards and encouragement. If it enjoys bathing, give it a shallow pan to bath in.Rosie takes a shower with me every now and then, she isn't fond of being sprayed. Norma and Hardy and I are still working on bonding and I already know they hate being sprayed, so I try to offer them a bowl/pan of water instead.

hmm... so the fact they are in a room that is lit by the sun would help keep this clock tuned? The length of the days are beginning to change here, sunrise has gone from 530pm to 630pm, sunset from 830pm to 730pm(so basically the days are 2 hours shorter now). The place where they are is strictly lit by the sun. It has a ceiling fixture, but I hardly use it.

I'm still wondering if I should be adding some egg to her diet. I know eclectus need to be on a lower fat diet, so I try to reflect that. If she has been in mating and now molting season... she probably needs the extra fat?

I give my flock hard boiled eggs (With Shell) at least a couple times a week, good protien from the egg and calcium from the shell, I've noticed they like it even better when I serve it a little warm instead of cold, I also mix a small amount of Yogart and some chopped greens such as kale or spinach, you can start with just egg and add things as you go to see what they like
