Chloe is adorable and I really do love the little bugger. I Know that they churp in the am and in the afternoon...But here is my problem. I work midnights and lately (last week) she Churps, clucks, screams, sings, tries to rip the cage doors off, squltches, Chearleads, cries, wistles...you name it she does it ALLLLLLLLLLLLL DAAAAYYYYYY. I have been falling asleep at work cause I get no sleep while she is in her happy mood. :evil: I even cover the cage and she still does it after about an hr.
Today I tried sleeping on the couch and let her out...that was no good. she was still talking and answering herself, and I jumped everytime I heard her little wings going.(out of fear where/what she was doing.)
I invisioned stuffing a sock in her beek, putting the cage outside, in the closet, a babysitter, make her watch steal magnolias (when the husband tried to take care of the birds in the tree), even wondered if they taste like chicken. But these are all throughts of abuse and couldnt do any of these of course... :roll: Of all weeks for her to start this! As if retaining water like the eighth wonder of the world isnt enough! :x
Would it be wrong if I tried to get her on my schedule? leave the light on at night and TV and then put her in the dark bedroom w me when I get home to sleep?
Gooodness, please any advise or suggestions please dont be bashful! I am exaused and in love with her. im looking at her cuddling up with her swing and shes such an angel when shes not acting like a FLIPPING! FOG! HORN! :x
Hopefully this schedule will change in a couple of month...but not a garentee.
