  • Plucking is a behavior commonly associated with stress. I had a bird which my mom and I rescued and it had plucked itself bald due to 10 years of neglect in a bad environment. the bird got much better, but will always be iffy with humans and will continue to pluck for her lifetime.

    Don't blame the owner, she knows what she's talking about and most likely loves birds enough to try to help them. Most people would carelessly throw birds like this into a bird rescue.

  • my parrot is screaming so loud i cant hear this video

  • i like this video

  • I take my bird with me to the other room... is that bad? Because that way she doesn't start deafening me with her screaming

  • @reaz82 Turn you into a positive thing. Find out what his favourite treat is and as you pass his cage, drop it in. Make sure this treat isn't one he has access too, i.e. in his food bowl. Also, don't push him - he doesn't want your attention right now and you have to work on building up a trust - very slowly. :)

  • leaning

  • my bird is screaming while laying/leamning on its perch and looks like its shaking, looks like its constapated but its not... it EVEN KINDA ANSWERS QUESTIONS!

  • Jokes on the parrots, I'm hearing impaired!

  • What if your bird is screaming because you're in the room and he fears you? My bird has developed a fear of me and will not stop screaming if I am in the room. If I give him attention he gets extremely frightened and will scream even more. If I ignore him he still screams at me till I am forced to leave the room.

  • boy youve got alot of videos

  • I find it hard to believe she is responsible for the bird's condition. She's prolly taking care of it and what better way then to include it in all the other birds social activities. The bird looks pretty happy and like it is comfortable at most times being there. Never the less, it looks like it went thru a lawn mower
