For more context regarding his moving situation you can read my previous thread.
I brought him home for christmas since I would be spending over three months home (the superb parrot, which belongs to my 2nd dad, stayed at my "uni housing").
He rarely let anyone handle him before, but wasn't overly aggressive to strangers nor other family members, only my dad.
He would alway fly and bite at his nape whenever possible.
Yesterday when I let him out he did the same to mother, which had never happened before. While luring him with food to put him back in his cage to cool down and not make the situation worse he bit(?) me. I'm trying to understand him, I know he most likely bit me because he was already riled up, but he didn't do it in one motion, he grabbed my finger multiple times with increasing strength before I managed to transfer him to a perch.
I really dont know why he is acting this way now, I cant let him out as often due to this. If he was only biting after being approached that's one thing, but he actively "hunting" down other.
I love him, but sometimes I think how much everything would be easier had I gotten a dove instead.
