Need Help–Entertaining Bored Caique

[BirdDad]

I'm watching over my sister's caique while she's in America.
I've been watching him for three days now.
He doesn't like me like he likes my sister, but he's not aggressive towards me at least.
I'm trying my best to entertain him. I've got him little toys to play around with outside of his cage, got him a tent to hang out in, I'm playing music for him and singing to him, petting him, letting him explore..usually that keeps him happy but because my sister isn't here, he's unhappy. I don't know what else to do. I've tried showing him videos of caiques, singing and dancing with him, trying to play with toys with him but he's being so grumpy. /:

Make him work for his food. But it will take longer than a few days to settle down probably

You are doing a great job!
Birds take a little while to become comfortable with new surroundings.
Just hang out with him and talk to him.
Your sister is very fortunate to have you care for him.

BTW, Joey gets very grouchy too.
Especially right now as he has a lot of new feathers growing in.
He scolds me a lot.

It can take time to settle in. May I ask, what makes you think that he is unhappy? How is he behaving?
