Boo-Boo Is Getting A Bit Bossy…

Shouts at me to CHANGE IT ! When Sports or News is one TV, Says “Music” when he wants to listen to that instead of TV, keeps saying “You take care of me” even after the boy cleans his cage now (got worse since Sunday when I scrubbed all the bird cages, the boy had been cleaning the birds every day and was gone on Sunday) and says other things that lean toward bossiness. I try to show him that I understand what he wants and this is what happens. 😂

If he gets too lippy I mean beaky you might have to ruffle his feathers a little bit. 🤣

@IndianaJoes I know how to rattle his cage but save that for when the birds are loud at night and won’t be quiet.

@cherokeepatti maybe you could play them some air raid siren music to wear them out so they go to sleep better. 😅

@IndianaJoes I gave Boo-Boo a good talking to the other day about not waking up at night while we were sleeping and start talking or chattering because I can hear him all the way into my room when I am sleeping and he wakes me up. I told him even when he talks quietly I can still hear him at night. And that we need to sleep at night and so should birds. Yesterday evening he was talking about what I said to him like he was telling the other birds, Ike will also wake up and start chattering sometimes 4 a.m. He is the other male bird and probably Boo-Boo wanted him to know to be quiet too. They were quiet last night.

@IndianaJoes I don’t want to deafen anybody here including us humans.

@cherokeepatti yes and on second thoughts, you sure wouldn't want him to learn how to start singing some air raid music.
