Hello everyone,
I have a 3 month mustache parakeet, which I adopted three days ago. He constantly screams and I don’t know why. He has toys and foraging opportunities, which he uses and he gets enough food. Still he screams really really loud (I had Hahns macaws in the past and he is on their level of screaming) all day long. He screams when I’m out of the room, he screams when I’m in the room. When I talk he screams even louder. Since he is the first bird I had this young I don’t know if it’s just his age, or if he misses his family, or if it’s something else. He‘s also pretty aggressive, when I look at him he puffs up, when I stand by his cage he puffs up. He also bit me to the point of drawing blood, when I tried giving him some of my strawberry. So maybe he’s just generally stressed and it might get better in time? Does anyone know what to do about the screaming and aggression?
