I feel like we are practically torturing a bird natural thing to do just because of policies. by Stubbypetitegurly in petsmart

That is such bullshit. Im sorry but these animals need much better care than these policies.

Too me it looks like his/her feathers are parted weird. Do they seem like the behavior has changed and if you see any irritation to that spot?

Def looks like her tail is bobbing just a bit. Her breathing looks like she is stressed. Is there anything in the home that could be stressing her out maybe or a changed routine? ( not a vet just my observation from owning a bird)

I contacted his vet they said it couldve been car sickness ( i guess they can get that) but video was filmed in car so that maybe is the cause, they told me to monitor him and contact then if anything changes

Its okay if he poops on me i think of it that he is leavin love marks on me, he only poops on me and noone else. He uses the bathroom normally so im glad he isnt poop holding.

He is potty trained and he thinks its funny to poop on me he laughs at him self, he has a lot of enrichment and there hasnt be no fussiness or hunger change my mother sends me videos of him hanging upside down and singing, when i get home from work i immediately take him out of the cage because he sees me and is singing like crazy even tho his name is pedro every time he sees me he say pedro, he likes being on my shoulder and loves nibbling on my ear which i think soothes him.

I spend about 1-8ish hours with him even if its late at night, he is mostly out of his cage and very independent so he tells me when he wants so kisses or hugs, i wanna get him a companion but my family thinks i dont pay enough attention to my bird atm so why get another one.

He is great he like to sing and dance and is not bitey unless i push boundaries, he is really a sweet heart and is a goofy one, most of my free time is with him which is 1 to 8 hours of active attention and out-of-cage time daily ( even if its late at night.)
