Hi everyone this is Kiko. He is my in laws pet, and is 9 months old. No one plays with him and iĀ“ve noticed yesterday he was ok with me but today he has bit chunks out of my hand and doesnĀ“t want to come to my finger on be touched. He was hand rared as a baby by my fiance and weĀ“ve kept telling my in laws that they need to play with him and socialise him or else he will just be like a wild bird, scared and not so "friendly". They keep him outside too which i think is cruel. Really want to help him but not sure if he is a lost cause. He is quite erratic and bites really hard.
My fiance said we need to interact with him, but I donĀ“t know he doesnĀ“t want to be touched and keeps biting everytime we try to handle him. We both have experience with hand raring birds, but weĀ“ve never had social problems with them because theyĀ“re always handled but that is the mistake of my in laws who donĀ“t seem to accept responsibility and blame Kiko.
Please help.
Kind regards
Sarah
