Has anyone tried sprouting seeds for their birds? I read it's way more nutritious than dry seeds. How do you do it safely without mold? Seems like a lot of work but I'm willing to try for Captain.

There's a great bird supply store in Roncesvalles that carries exactly what you need. I go there all the time.

What worked for me was keeping a super consistent daily routine — birds thrive on predictability. Took about a week but my Amazon parrot responded really well to it.

I'd suggest trying keeping a super consistent daily routine — birds thrive on predictability. My avian vet recommended it and it made a huge difference.

YES! This is exactly what I needed to read today. My Indian Ringneck and I have been going through the same thing!

Oh man, this brings back memories. When we were dealing with this with Lucky, I thought we'd never get through it. Now it's just a funny memory. It gets better, I promise.
