Help!! I recently bought a new baby pineapple gcc three days ago. Its 8 weeks old. It was handtamed and let’s me pet it and doesn’t act scared at all. It lets me grab it. The breeder did not teach it to step up he would grab them. However, I want to teach it to step up. I try to get him to step up but it bites my hand so hard and hangs on until I tap it with the millet and scream. It really like apples and I finally got it to step up for the apple a couple times. But I don’t want to constantly waste apples. I try millet and it wants it but not that much so it bites my hand instead and gets frustrated. When it bites it breaks skin. This makes me really sad because of how bad I wanted this bird and how much I put into it. I feel like it has more fun in its cage. How should I get it to step up without biting? I heard you shouldn’t yell or tap it’s beak but it won’t let go otherwise. Please help!?
