Precious(lovebird)
I have a lovebird named Precious and I need a little help with bitting,
She is very sweet and she try's to feed me and I have traind her some easy tricks but she just bites a lot! Mostly when I try to get her back in her cage.
Please help:rainbow1:
 
she's just telling you she doesn't want to go back in.

sometimes, if you feed her a treat, and put her back while she is eating it that will help save your fingers from being bit.

I do that with my Senegal and it works fine.
 
Do your bird have any point where it likes to go back on its own?
My lovebird likes to go out and play but usually agrees on going back after about 10-15 min. You can see that on the way he jumps up on your hand(they know what you want to do). If he is resistant then you will have a hard time convincing him, but if he instantly jumps up on his own, at least for my bird that means he is OK with going back to the cage.
 
pityu makes a good point, lovebirds are known for going in their cage on their own. all of mine do.

you could put a favourite treat in the cage, such as a small piece of millet, walk towards the cage, hold him in your hand, to encourage him to go into the cage and receive the treat!
