Unhappy parrots and budgies exhibit similar behaviors: they sleep a lot, stay puffed up all the time, huddle in one spot in the cage, and don't sing or talk very much. Generally speaking, they sulk and mope the way people do.

This is also behavior of a bird that is sick, so if your bird seems listless and sleeps a lot, take it to the vet to make sure it isn't ill. Birds are very good at hiding illness and injury, so it's important to check it out at the first sign of something amiss.
