Donīt yell!
Never yell at a screaming parrot! It will think youīre playing along with it and will just scream more. Instead, try whispering or speaking softly. The bird will have to stop yelling to hear what you are saying to it.

Cover the Cage
If the bird wonīt stop screaming, first make sure nothing is wrong. If the bird isnīt hurt or frightened but is simply screaming for the fun of it, try covering the cage with a blanket or dimming the room lights. If all else fails, remove the bird to a quiet, darkened room.

Donīt Reward Screaming
Never give a bird a treat to try and quieten him! The bird perceives this as a reward and will continue to scream until given the treat. Your bird is highly intelligent and it won`t take him long to realize that if he screams, you will hand over a treat. Scream=treat. Don`t start this cycle!
