hey guys, So i have a blue and gold female macaw who is about 4 and a half years old. Since i took her in around june, her squawking has gotten a lot better (she was a loudddddd bird when i first got her) but lately she seems really random in her squawking. She can go days without barely saying a peep, yet last night and this morning she hasnt stopped constantly screaming (either that or she talks and squawks). Now, even when i cover her she still talks and makes low noises, but i just dont get what triggers her (i think she is towards the end of molting because she has a lot of pin feathers on her neck). These long squawking periods happen every couple days where she will squawk for a constant hour or more and i have no clue what to do to stop this behavior. i cover her around eleven and uncover her at 10 before i go to class and sometimes she'll be quiet when i leave yet sometimes she wont shutup (my roommates let me know if she gets loud). Is she not sleeping enough? should i uncover her later in the day or put her to sleep earlier? she used to squawk at 8:30 in the morning for a while last month but i have stopped that thankfully.
i could use some advice on this
thanks guys
