Parrotlets (like most parrots) are social birds that love being the center of attention. If they’re not the center of everyone’s attention they tend to get bored and start to develop some bad habits that you are sure to notice. For instance, if you have to leave your bird alone for long periods of time then he may start picking at his feathers. This small habit can turn into a big problem if he starts pulling his feathers out completely. In addition, parrots are known to scream or screech for attention. If you do not “love” on your Parrotlets then he may start screaming until you do. Don’t give in or he will start associating attention with screaming and it will be hard to break him of that association. Exercising your Parrotlets can help prevent bad habits.
