I’ve had my conure for about 10 years now, for nearly four he’s been off and on screamy, lunges and bites, actively chases after members of the family, puffs up and grumbles as he scuttles across the floor looking for ankles or even other pets to attack. I went away for an extended period awhile...
hi! I haven’t posted much on here so if this isn’t the right spot for this please let me know.
My conure basil is about 7 years old now and she’s always been a little on the nippy side but never to this extent, In the past two days alone she’s bitten me 20+ times a couple times drawing blood...
I've gotten a new Conure. It's been really difficult though. Unlike my first bird, it seems to be scared of hands. It's hard to tell if it's tamed or not. It allows pets, but runs away and bites hands. I've gotten 4 nasty bites from it already. I'm not sure how to approach this. My first bird...
I have a Green cheeked conure who seems to be extremely comfortable with me,but randomely bites extremely hard, to the point of drawing blood. He is a smart bird, and he often responds to verbal commands like step up and come here. However, he randomely bites my mother and I, and tries biting...
My male jenday conure had always been friendly, but would sometimes get angry, which is understandable. But now he’s been suddenly lashing out on my hand or arm when I’m not doing anything at all. I suspect it’s because it is spring , or mating season. I attached a video, if anyone can give me...
I have a problem with my newest parrot- a quaker. He is a 2yo male.
He likes to hang out with people, will sing, and fly to you to check out what are you doing. The thing is- whenever there's a piece of skin in his reach, he will start preening and then biting really hard out of nowhere. He...
I have a green cheek named Yoshi. He is about 1 year and 4 months right now. My biggest problem with him since we've gotten him is he bites everyone who is not me or my dad. Anyone else and I mean anyone else he will bite them and bite them hard. Im not sure when exactly this started, i got him...
Hello everyone,
Two day ago, we bought a 2 year old female Galah Cockatoo. When we went to look at her she was very happy to see me. I could take her out of the cage, dance with her and pet her. I wasn't scared of her for a minute. She even did not really want to sit with my boyfriend, she...
Hello! I recently purchased my first Indian Ringneck about 2 weeks ago. The breeder said that he/she (no idea of the gender currently) was hand reared and is about 13 weeks.
When I got him home I opened the cage door and allowed him to move into his new big boy cage, the one he was kept in by...
Hello everyone, I'm totally new to this forum so I'll try to briefly explain my questions and what my parrot looks like.
I've established that my baby parrot aged 1 year old named Rio is a ringneck and the colour is totally green.
However, this is my first time owning a parrot in general and I...

Hi everyone,
We just took on two Rainbow Lorikeets from some people who weren't looking after them. We, unfortunately, didn't know what we were getting ourselves into!
We have worked with a lot of animals over the years, however these two are really hard to figure out...
Initially we had them...
My bf has a sun conure (named Pedro) that lives at his parents house and is VERY VERY attached to his dad. His dad let Pedro do WHATEVER he wants and even takes Pedro outside with NO LEASH. But for the past couple of months Pedro has gotten aggressive. Pedro will bite anyone that isn’t my bf or...
So before I adopted my cockatiels Pickles and Kea. They’ve been together for quite some time. At first they would fight here and there but I would brush it off. But now Pickles will bite Kea for no reason and would bite Kea so hard, he make this little noise almost like a scream because it...
So recently i traveled so i had my cousin take care of my parrot, my pareot really didnt mind being with my cousin.
So when i came back after 20 days i have noticed that my parrot has started to bite me for no reason and when he tries to bite me and i give my arm a little shake he tries to...
I’ve had two 9-month old sun conures for the past four months, but I think not much bonding has been done still! My family says that they like me the best, they hop up the stairs to my room, scream for my attention when I walk in the room, and they really like being on my shoulders most of the...
Solly is a male, one year old in January. He was the sweetest parrot ever. He never bit someone before. But in August, my brother came to visit me and it looked like he was jealous. He was attacking him for no reason. After that I went to my brothers house and it appears that Solly knew it...
Hello, I just recently got a cockatiel about a week and half ago from a pet store. I always knew that it’s better to get them from a breeder but I fell in love with him the moment I saw him and just had to get him. However, im currently having trouble taming him. He’s very feisty and always...
I have a green cheek conure and a crimson bellied conure sharing the same cage. I've had them for about 4 years and they have shared a cage. Now I am used to being bitten here and there by my birds (anything with a mouth can bite). So my green cheek has been showing aggression over time but I...
Hello! This is my first post other than the 1st "hello" post, so bear with me - I have not yet learned the lingo here. ��
Anywho on to the issue- I just recently within the last few weeks traded a mini colt for a ACG, because the family has a young son is is very sick with a left...
