That's probably best if you do that. Putting an old towl over his cage will also help but will not stop the noise.
I have a new pet cockatiel, I received it yesterday.during the evening and night time I usually watch TV or talk to friends. The bird is in my bedroom during the day. But at night I am afraid that the light and the noise will keep him up.will It be okay if I move the bird into a quieter and darker room every night and then bring it back in the morning?
