Savery... as I said in one of my previous posts, AviCalm and Featherific on their own might not be the total solution for a bird. Yes, they are a step (a huge one, IMO) in the right direction. At the same time, as I learned from some other board members here (you know who you are!), there are other things you have to do... like toy rotatation, adding new toys, foraging, changing the sleep arrangements, how much time they spend in or out of their cage, how much one-on-one time you spending with the bird... etc.

It's the COMBINATION of all of the above things (and more I'm sure I have missed) that put the bird back on the right road...

Drugs, homeopathic or otherwise, cannot and should not be the only answer... there is NO "quick fix"...
