HELP!!

[WillO'Wisp]

My cockatiel is driving me nuts!! It seems lately everyday all he's done is scream constantly, well not scream always but he squacks over and over and over and even when I cover him up he still won't stop! I try so hard to pay attention to him, I take him out, I pet him and let him walk around and he's still noisy! I think maybe he's bored...we don't have alot of toys for him, I have a little box house in his cage since it's so big for him to hide in, and chew on, but he still seems all unsatisfied and bored, what can I do to make him more quiet?

Try keeping his cage uncovered and putting the TV on, or putting on some music. As crazy as it sounds, it may distract him and quiet him down. That's what my grandma always did with hers =]

Maybe you could give it some fresh air

[VampirePrincess]

It depends on why he's screaming. Perhaps he's in pain? I don't know anything about bird diseases, but if he's sick that might be why he won't be quiet.

Try talking to him a lot. Take him out, talk to him, and play with him 3 times a day (schedule permitting, of course). This will make him feel more a part of things, and he'll tolerate being bored better

Maybe he wants attention or he maybe sick? Hmm.. I remember we had one of these as well years ago. He should maybe have more toys.
