Hi guys,
I arrived here looking for recommendations about sleeping issues my Green Cheek Conure is having. Alex is a 7 yr. old yellow side spoiled lovely brat. I have to admit that the sleeping patterns at my home aren't consistent but he was usually sleeping pretty well, now he's having a tantrum when I place him on his cage to sleep and waking multiple times during the night. He does sleep in her regular cage, but at bedtime, we place a happy hut, where he sleeps, we cover most of the cage to keep it dark and warm, he eats a nice about of pellets before sleeping along with a water down organic chamomile tea (4:1). During the day he spends a little more than half the day with me and/or in a play gym, since he's really attached to me I have to split the time (intervals of about 2hrs in cage / 2 hrs out), since at some point he wasn't sleeping well cause he wanted to be with me all the time but now this ain't working. He recently had his annual check-up and the vet didn't find anything wrong. He's playful, has a hearty appetite (he eats a mix of seeds and pellets about 30%/70%, along with fruits vegetables and some occasional crackers, rice, pasta, and plain cereals). I'm really concern about his sleeping, he's constantly tired during the day and I know that not sleeping enough can affect his health. Do any of you had gone thru this? Any recommendations?
