Constant screaming from a Macaw right?I dealt with that from Buzz
my first B&G Macaw she was 10 years old and came from a very bad situation.
Not only did she scream but she yelled the profanities that were yelled at her.
At first it was hard to ignore but then that was the only way around it.When she would do good I would reward her good behavior.Sometimes when she would scream I would walk in her room and say quietly say to her quiet.Soon this helped to calm her down.Today she screams once in a while and the profanity is no more.It all took time.And with your baby it will take a little time
it won't last forever.The radio and TV was also a helpful tool they forget about screaming because they get distracted.I hope this helps you.I thought it would never end and then I got more Macaws.Don't worry they all don't scream so it didn't start all over again.
