None, temporarily
Last week, I introduced my new feathered friend, my CGCC temporarily known as Little Parrot. One of his favorite things to do is climbing into my shirt sleeve. He will stay in there for as long as half an hour.

Uh oh, sounds like you've got a Stage 5 snuggle-bug on your hands. Or up your sleeve!! ;)

Sometimes he is a cuddle bug and sometimes he's a cuddle bug that bites. Usually he does just want to snuggle in my sleeve, but sometimes he has a different motive-- his sole purpose in climbing into my sleeve is to chomp on my fingers. He thinks that biting is fun and we're working on changing his thinking. I'm demonstrating that there are other things more fun to do and things that are better to chomp on than human flesh. Sooner or later he'll get the idea.
 
Humm, sounds like you need to keep your hand outside of the sleeve!?!?
Once you figure it out, he will do something else to amaze you, it's a bird thing!
