My finch is incredibly poorly behaved. Starting at 6am every day, he shrieks a shrill, piercing cry in response to the very slightest noise, and covering his cage does no good. He was a feather picking bully that I had to separate from the rest. Now that his siblings have died of old age and this old coot keeps hanging on, he's got no neighbor birds -- although that is not his problem because he was screaming even when he did -- and since I have a small house and nowhere to feasibly put his cage other than my office, where I work from every day, I have wear ear plugs all day just to be able to work in there and hear myself think. I called an avian vet but the receptionist wouldn't let me talk to the vet, just told me there's nothing that can be done. Any suggestions please?? HELP!!!
