Hello ,yea its another biting question. I know parrots never do without
Reason or provocation,our galah wants 2 come 2 us
She isnt saying go away,definately not afraid. My grey is
Much easier to understand.how can i find out why she
Wants 2 come 2 us just to start biting.she has loads 2 do.
And plenty 2 destroy.
 
You need to figure out why she's coming to bite, is it something your doing that she doesn't like? Your giving very vague details for anyone to determine anything. Need more info on the bird such as how old, how long you've had him/her, etc.
 
How are you reacting to her bites, if she's coming towards you to bite it may seem fun.
 
I adopted a 5 year old galah my husband brought him from California and he was feeding and petting him when they got here he came straight to me. Since then he only likes me he has bit both my sons and my daughter but is so sweet with me, he will actually jump down from his cage to bite there feet I lock him up no praise. They have tried to give him treats but he will tear it and toss it while stareing at them and he also bit my husband drew blood from my whole family. I love him but I'm going to live in my 5 th wheel and his behavior will make it hard to have him out of his cage. How do I get him to love my family the was he loves me.
 
If I was in your place I would allow your kids(never you, at least not at first) to start training him with a clicker. Start with touch training. Training is fun for birds, and that will associate your kids with being fun. Allowing your kids to be involved in his everyday care, if they aren't already will also help.
