I have had my GCC for a little bit over a year now. hes less than two years old, but he is super aggressive. Everytime he sees my mom, he goes after her, and bites her extremely hard to the point of ripping chunks out of her skin. this behavior is specific to my mother, despite her doing nothing wrong to the conure. recently, he started biting at everything in the house. he bites wires (he bit through my fish heater wire and shocked and burned himself over Christmas), he randomly takes keys off of my keyboard, and he will often fly to the kitchen and "forage" which is basically him going through the trash or quiet literally flying in the fridge and taking out food. Ive tried the time out method, I have tried holding his beak, tried the shaking method, tried everything I know how. I think he is extremely spoiled and at this point I have no idea what to do because almost everything leads to him biting. I spent quiet alot of time with him, playing with him, I let him eat with me, sometimes he showers with me, and everytime he makes a mess everywhere he goes. hes out of the cage from 11 in the morning, to 10-11 at night. I dont know what other information to give but im happy to answer any questions about him.
There are times where he will come over to me and roll over and wait for me to pet him only for me to get bit the second I put my finger near him, but the bites are not aggressive, so I know hes playing.
I am being pressured rightfully to give him away because of what hes doing with my mother, and there are times were he will fly to her shoulder and bite her face, he almost bit her eye before.
How do I stop him from being aggressive and messy? If I cannot stop this behavior, where would I sell him?
