I see SO many posts about how caique are difficult birds. Honestly? After owning one for 10 years, I think they're one of the more manageable parrots IF you put in the time upfront. The key is consistency. Am I completely wrong? Fight me.

100% this. Wish I'd known this when I first got my bird.

My green cheek conure did this too! Turned out it was because of boredom from lack of enrichment and mental stimulation. Once I addressed that, everything went back to normal.

Totally agree with this! My cockatiel is exactly the same way.

When I had to travel, I used Bird Sitting Toronto and they were incredible with my umbrella cockatoo. Daily updates with photos and everything.
