It used to r00l, then I had my voice change and when I go from regular singing to my falsetto it sounds like I am a dying animal. What can I do to change that?

How long ago did your voice change?

Because if it was recent, your voice could actually still be shifting. If that's the case, you're not going to want to put too much strain on it right now so that everything develops properly. Otherwise, just keep working at it. Eventually you'll get used to how it feels and sounds again, and you'll be able to train your vocal chords to do it again.

Also, just a tip, it would help not to drink or eat any dairy or soda.

while there are kids that develop their adult voices by the time they are 16, most haven't- the vocal chords take a little more time to mature. go with the advice above, and additionally do not strain- i know that it sounds like your favorite singers are pushing hard then magically go to their falsetto level with grace. they're not. they're maintaining constant, smooth pressure, singing from their stomach. pick out some notes to sing, and first try them with the 'oooo' syllable. then you can go on to others.

buzz your lips. just do it. make the ambuelence kind of sound oooOOOOOoooo. starting low and going hig and descending again (if you have a piano start on middle cd and go up an octave and descend back down). if you listen when you buzz you lips you dont crack or hit that "break" in your voice. your using the same vocal chord muscles as when you sing. if you include this in your warm up it just help you out with that. in addition to that, the buzzing loosens up your cheeks and mouth in general.

Take a couple of vocal lessons or save the money and enjoy some sweet throat pains as you try to figure it out for yourself through trial and error.

Most boys voices change around 7th or 8th grade, so unless you are like 12 or whatever it shouldnt have too much to do with that. Again, thats MOST boys (i know this because i just took a class on conducting middle school vocal groups)
