That's pretty good that the tell you when it is bed time.-----TRO-----Unfortunately, they also tell us when it's breakfast time. And it isn't always when it's our breakfast time. They have plenty of seeds and pellets, they just want the cover off and some petting and attention. You have no idea how loud a 1.5 lb and a 2 lb bird can be.
Petey weights about an ounce and he can get noisey.... I couldn't imagine a 1 to 2 lb bird...
Take my word for it, they can be deafening. We're working on training them not to screech. Jackie isn't too bad, it's Ralphie. But it's mating season, so it's to be expected. Jackie isn't old enough to mate yet, so we gave Ralphie a little teddy bear, and he humps the bear.
