My Solomon Island Eclectus is a little more then a year old. He is a male. He has been behaving akwardly lately. Aound the end of may... Me and my sister were moving into the new appartment. She had droped he phone on the floor behind the bed's set up against the wall. Moses was walking around on the floor and a beed frame [doesn't even wiegh three pounds] on top of him. Since then he has healed nicely. He would hold on to us. And slept on my chest, my pillow, just weak. But now that he has regained his strangth. He has been using his voice much much more. Calling for attenchen but only wanting to bite things we have. [he ate some of the keys of my laptop] and like I said just akward. I love him more then my self. But he hasn't been remebering who I am. What we have tought him. And now. He has up-chucked on me. what could be causeing this? ... I know I mite not get an answear. But I was really hoping I would. Help?

  1. i would take it to the vet to get it checked up.


  2. Make sure that your pet bird is safe and well. If you hear a call that sounds different — that sounds like an alarm call — it’s better to be safe than sorry and make sure your bird is OK. Of course, some birds have a way of making that alarm call if, for example, “somebody” has loaded their water dish with soggy pellets or eaten the last grape. By being observant and noting the types of calls your bird makes on different occasions, you will know when your bird really needs you.

    Make sure your bird knows how to play on its own. It seems odd, but many birds are not born knowing how to play with toys. They can learn on their own, in time, or by watching other birds play. You also can let your bird watch you enjoy a toy to give it an idea of how much fun it can be. If your pet has a variety of entertaining toys that you rotate frequently, it will have less time to fret about missing you.

    Greet your bird when you come home. Chances are, it has been waiting for you while you were out and is eager to see you. If you wander off to read your mail or start preparing dinner without taking a moment to say “hello,” your bird is likely to react with righteous indignation. Establish a routine of greeting your bird, even briefly, soon after you walk in the door.

    Take your bird with you when you can. It might not always be practical or safe to have your bird with you; for example, a kitchen with a lit stove isn’t the safest place for your bird to spend its time. On the other hand, you can avoid a lot of problem screaming by keeping a perch for your bird to use in other rooms, even if you are just folding laundry or reading a book. After all, isn’t it flattering that your bird demands your company so enthusiastically?

    Establish an acceptable contact call. If your bird talks, you can encourage it to call “Hello” or “Whatcha doin’” rather than shake the windows with a scream. Birds that aren’t big talkers also can be taught to use more acceptable sounds to communicate. For example, Ariel is fond of a certain lip-smacking kiss sound, and many birds can produce a good wolf whistle. Call to your bird frequently with the preferred contact call, and it is likely to start using it as well.

    Don’t give up.
