Levi is my Linnie. He has always had a very strong personality. He's totally tame and social, but he wanted to be the boss right from day1. He bit a lot in the beginning to get his way...but he has learned that that does not work. He arrived clipped, and I allowed his wings to grow back. I've recently clipped again, as he developed a bad attitude when he was flighted, and was aggressive to everyone except me.
He is a year old so I suppose it could be hormones....
He seems a very unhappy little guy, lately, no matter what I do. Levi WANTS what he wants when he wants it. I'm beginning to wonder if I can give him what he seems to need. This morning I am very close to trying to rehome him...and I'm not joking! He's screaming in the bird room, I move all the cages out in the living area, he's still screaming... I try the window perches and the play stand...he's still screaming. The ear piercing sound is getting old very fast. It's very similiar to a smoke detector, and the pitch is painful. He screamed for the whole day. He seems to be never content anywhere, and is always jumping off where I've put him! Here's pics of the choices that he has...and still he wants something else! I've been so frustrated for a couple of weeks now. He used to be out a lot, but now, he's confined to his cage a lot of the time. Honestly, I'm ready to give up!
BTW...I'm no longer considering a bigger bird...I've got enough problems as it is!
