Its been almost 3 months since I brought home my white ball of fire and he is doing so much better ...The screaming has almost stopped unless my daughter is around ..he just loves her so he screams for her allot ..but other than that he hardly screams at all ....which is such a nice turn around ...he still bites on occasion but its mostly when he is playing his lil games ..like I dont want to step up or step down and the ever great game of can you lock my cage before I bit you ....he has taken to trashing his dishes and throwing them all over his cage so we are trying new ways of keeping them in their holders but I think he is slowly getting tired of that game ..which is good because it is very hard to keep them in their holders Toos are very smart ....he seems to not to want to come out of his cage very much when its out of cage time lately but I think hes molting now and a lil grumpy ..over all he is doing really well and seems to be settling in ..thank god the screaming has lessened ...we are all grateful for that mom really wanted to cook the bird
