I am a new bird owner. My friend was no longer able to care for her 2 year old green cheek so I adopted him. She said he was very sweet and shy. I have had him for almost a week. I am able to have him walk on my arms and shoulders but he still bites me if I try to pet him, as well as if anyone else tries petting him. He also attacks my phone and if he is near the computer mouse he won't let me touch it.
I'm wondering if the biting is because he is still unsure about his new environment and will grow out of it and how I should handle it. So far thats the only behavior issue he has that I can't live with. I do have two smallish kids so I need to figure this out quick.
Thanks for any advice!
