New owner, so many questions!
It seems every evening around 6pm, Emmitt starts to get a little anxious. He is typically very laid back all day, just minds his own business, go's with the flow, but aroud 6 that all changes. He gets really vocal, starts to pace in his cage, crawl to the front then back to his perch, then to the front again, and back etc.
If I go to take him out he seems agitated and fusses at me. If I am persistent he will eventually go on my finger to come out, but he does a lot of flapping like he wants to fly away, stretching to see around me, etc. I tried to cover half his cage to kind of get him calmed down for bed, and it didnt seem to phase him. I took him out for a walk around the house, went out in the backyard, etc. He seemed to like that, but then was back at it when we got back to the cage.
Around 730ish I covered him up for bed, he calmed down and he was quiet till this morning. Aside from his strange growling noise he does when he starts to settle in to sleep.
Why do you think he is getting antsy around this time? Seems like he is wanting something, but I can't tell what. Do you think he may just want to be covered earlier?
