I have an African Grey. They are all very social birds, and need a lot of attention. The first thing that I would sugguest is that you get his wings clipped. It is a little cruel, but with the time, money, and love for the pet that is invested, it is worth it.
Second get a VERY BIG cage. And dont leave him lovked in it all day. That is one of tha main reasons that they scream like that.
My bird is loose in the house all day, until bed time.
But the thing that will take the longest, and a lot of patience is to potty train him. Teach him to shit on the bathroom sink or toilet. If you dont, he will shit where ever he wants when he wants.
My bird will go to the bathroom in the sink, or on her cage. We have been working on this for 6 years, and she still some times goes elsewhere.
