- I have 1 GCC named Sandoval, he's a recent addtion and is only about 12 or 13 weeks old. My daughter and I also have three Pacific Parrotlets, which love to have babies! Little Handsome, Luli and thei
I'm sure that there have been many gcc owners who never had a problem with nippiness..And I can tell the difference between beaking and biting. Cause when he bites, he means it. And now i feel even more guilty after I read that article saying that biting was NOT normal and not the way birds solve their disputes or normally interact...and I'm like "so he's just going out of his way to let me know he doesn't respect or necessarily like me!" What have you other gcc owners out there done to discourage and eliminate the biting, if indeed yours did? I just want to know he's happy, he hasn't even contentedly ground his beak on my shoulder or anywhere...no signs of love, even though he does indicate he wants to come to me and does. It's really disheartening and it's really sad, and St. Francis hasn't come through for me yet either....maybe I should trade? Maybe he'd be happier with someone else and maybe I'd be happier with a loud sun conure that don't bite as much or some other type of conure that don't bite as much. The conure we had before, Daisy, she was so sweet. Never bit, I trusted her to be on Belles shoulder at any point in time...and she was five months old and I rescued her from a stinky crowded outbuilding full of depressed birds. I'm just trying to be honest, please don't judge me because of these thoughts...I just would like to learn a technique that works, and i will try them ALL. Thanks yall.
