Our Eclectus has been doing so much better since switching up diet, larger cage, and longer nights rest. At least we thought so... he has a habit of screaming at the top of his lungs whenever BOTH my wife and I arenāt visible to him. We do not run back into the room when it happens for fear of encouraging the behavior, and if one of us is in the room weāll leave to let him know itās not acceptable. This is becoming very problematic when one of us is working and the other is at home. Or weāre outside doing yard work. I can only imagine the noise when weāre both at work.
And thatās where the neighbors/hoa come in. Theyāre starting to say heās being ābothersome to the neighborhoodā. I kid you not. We are on 1/5acre so heās heard outside the house, which means the neighbors can hear him too.
Does anyone have suggestions on how to limit this behavior? We always leave the TV on for him when weāre gone to help him feel not so alone. But we cannot help the need to leave the house. Clearly he doesnāt understand this. Thank you for any insight! Anyone who has the misfortune of dealing with an hoa knows how horrible they can be. Charlie is for sure doing better with feather destruction and overall temperament. But having the neighbors involved makes this a more pressing issue.
