bites

I have one Conure that I got when he was young. He went through a bit of a biting phase when he went through his adolescent stage but is great now. Loves to be handled and very sweet. About 6 months ago I adopted an older Conure (9 years). His owner was moving and couldn?t take him with her. He...

Long story short, I intend on working with an 36-year-old Amazon and a 9-year-old conure my brother is neglecting either by frequent visits or taking the animals myself. (I haven't decided which since either comes with its own issues) The reason they're being neglected is because they bite and...

We got a harlequin macaw a few weeks ago. After being a bit timid for a few days, he has become very friendly almost all the time - we can feed him out of open hand, he makes cooing and chuckling noises, does a lot of dancing and head bobbing and replies to a few of our attempts to teach him...

Hello, I recently became the owner of a GCC (Her Name is Phyllis) and I already love her so much. She’s been doing good for the most part, I just have a few behavioral concerns and I’m not sure if they’re normal? I was hoping I could get some advice/help..! She is only 5 months and is also a...

My budgie, Doodle, is a bit weird when it comes to fingers... Every now and then I can touch their beak and give them a tiny bit of millet but for the most part, they lunge and bite my finger. I know they like to be pet sense one night when they were tired he wanted me to scratch his neck. It...

I own this one male pineapple conure named Coco. He's always been a little brat, and being my first bird, i'm not quite sure how to stop him from biting. He tends to just nibble on me most of the time, but if I accidentally hurt him or annoy him or do something he doesn't like, he bites hard. I...

Hi everyone, I have a serous predicament going on. Yesterday evening my conure started becoming very hostile with me, when in the morning he was just fine and able to perch on my finger. Now he just lunges at me and bites to the point where he break skin and I bleed. Ontop of that the little...

I love my three year old, male dusky conure to pieces even if he's a biter. He was ok with members of the family being around him when they were over visiting and I could take him out of his cage and he'd perch on my finger while he did some funny stuff that'd make my family laugh. Then one...

Hello, this is my first (but definately not last!) post here at ParrotForums. We have a 1 year old Lovebird (Roseicolli) called Kiwi. We are having some trouble with him biting, it's gone past the exploring stage and is now becoming aggressive. He is tame, completely comfortable with us. He...

It's been weeks, my yellow sided conure has been really temperamental and has been attacking me, biting me and trying to really pull out some skin, it's to the point I cant stop crying because my sweet natured bird just refuses to be nice. He bites, lunges, and puffs up gets real mean. I work...
