Patricia W Posted July 30, 2010 Share Posted July 30, 2010 If she's by herself, she may well be calling for company. They don't like being alone. Are you going to get her a friend - or better still two friends? Tricia Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MadMitch Posted July 30, 2010 Share Posted July 30, 2010 I don't know why they do it. I have a gold Sebright that is out on the perch doing it every morning and several times throughout the day. I just ignore her and she eventually stops. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
