Hey everyone,
so we got our african grey when he was 3 months old me and my dad raised him but we had no big knowledge in birds and stuff i was trying to make him stand on my hand and that he was just so awesome he did it and kept with it, but the problem is here, with time i got bored and stopped playing with him and my father only changes his food and stuff he doesnt even let him out the cage and feeds him only his food (no veggies or anything) (i wanna know if thats bad too) so i was just talking with him and petting him sometimes but with time now hes like 2 years old i wanted to start to train him and i read that he needs a treat when he does something right but he just doesnt eat anything other than his food, i tried many times but nope idk what im going to do, and now hes being aggressive whenever i put my hand in front of him and bitten me sometimes, and runs away he never wants to be lift by me anymore and whenever i open the cage he doesnt go in and gets very aggressive and runs away from me when i try to get him inside, i believe this is all my fault and i am responsible for this and i really want to fix it but idk how, since everytime i let him out he hates me more like last time i let him out for 4 hours and i needed to go out so i tried to let him inside the cage but he didnt and bited me alot of times until i force him on my hand so please help me guys i really want to let him be healthy and have fun with me but i just dont know how
