Hi there,
I was hoping someone would be able to help me. Yesterday we purchased a timneh african grey. Hes about 3 years old, and is really lovely, with my boyfriend, but when it comes to me he's totally different. He will step up onto my boyfriends hand no trouble but if i try to make him step up he just tries to bite me and screams at me.
He will be out of his cage most of the day whilst my bf is at work, and today he been ok he doesnt fly at me to attack me or anything, he just doesnt seem to want me to go anywhere near him.
I've given him treats to try and entice him but he's so stubborn. I really don't know what to do, and we can't keep him if he is going to be like this.
Someone PLEASE help me. My boyfriend doesn't know that i'm posting on here but i'm serious, i can't keep a bird that doesn't like me. Also i would have thought he'd be better with me coz the owner we got him off was female. Anyway please help.
Thank you in advance.
