Sleep

[Khaiqha]

Does anyone else's birds pay attention to when you sleep?

If I go to sleep, my birds leave me alone, or perch on my shoulder and nap. It doesn't matter if I sleep at night or take a nap during the day.

Yet the second I start to wake up they'll pounce on me and want to play. I feel kinda guilty because I sometimes disturb their sleep but they seem to be so respectful of my sleeping.

They can nap anytime. They take advantage of your nap for theirs. About 2 pm every day this house gets really quiet. Everything naps at the same time and sometimes I get one too.

Polarn does... if i fall asleep during the day or if i sleep to long in the morning he will hang upside down and scream his lounges out until i open my eyes, if the roster outside happens to make his sound Polarn will immitate that too. but he wont wake me up until 7:30 anyways and im usually up by then, if not it is definitly time to wake up in order to get everthing done for that day

Nika is adorable. She definitely wakes up earlier than me on weekends and such but I think she stands quietly for a while and then gets bored. So first she starts with very quiet peeping and chattering and then gets annoyed that I'm not getting up fast enough and makes a special louder, peep-peep noise that must be a previous owner's alarm clock. I usually get up and feed her so that she's not just sitting in her covered cage, bored.

The one time I tried to nap she was not ready I guess for a nap and peeped the entire time keeping me on the edge of wakefulness. Little silly. :] She rarely screams, even in the morning or evening, which is great. When I roll her back to her area that her cage is for night-night she does make this sort of crying, chattering noise like a child. It's kind of adorable but creeped me out the first time I heard it.

So weird because the lady I got her from got rid of her because "supposedly" she woke her up early! Not once has she woken up on her own earlier than 7:30.

Yes its heaven .On Sundays {I get up at 4.30] to take care of my 9 birds[my choice]. Then I go back to sleep on the couch [My only day to do this] There very quiet until I stir and it doesnt matter what time it is.

mya lands on my pillow if i fall asleep on the couch and says"what are you doing?" penny will either sleep with me or start screaming "mommy!"

I've never fallen asleep when the birds are out as I like to know what they are doing at all times.
My boyfriend often tries to sleep on the sofa but if Ollie thinks he isn't paying attention he gives him a good hard nip and wakes him up. Sadly my bf has taught him loads of bad habits.

My birds never really were big nappers. Although lately, they've napped a bit. At around four o'clock, I come home from school. First I say hello to them and then go watch TV. The couch is right in front of their cage. They usually take a little nap until my show is done and then they wanna play with me!
