most birds are noisey, but put loads of toys in to entertain them. you can make your own. Toilet cores, news paper, anything they can rip up!! Of a night time cover them at the same time each night, like a routine. And if find giving them different foods each day helps, try different fruits, mine love apples!

I've had cages of freecycle and they have been fab.

Good luck, and can we have some pics please?
