But within 5 seconds, he will start biting my shoulder and neck, again it draws blood every time. But as soon as I walked out of his sight too, he would immediately follow me and land on my shoulder. But if my husband walked out of his sight, to my surprise, he won't follow my husband as long as I'm there with him. And when we both walk away at the same time, he would choose to fly onto my husband's shoulder, not mine. When me and my husband are both present, he would obviously choose my husband. We put his cage in the living room, and he likes hanging out on top of his cage where the food and water is, as long as he can see at least one of us. But the weird thing is, he is totally OK being in the same room with me alone even when my husband walks away. So it could be that he just doesn't like me since he picked out my husband to be his favourite. I also read and heard that a lot of parrots are one-person bird, meaning once they picked out their favourite person they will ignore or become very hostile to other people. ![]() In the bed, he would try to chase me away by trying to bite me on wherever he can get a hold of, on the floor, he chases me away by trying to bite my feet. And he would chase me away when he is in our bed with us or when he is on the floor with me. ![]() He would also bite my face if I try to kiss him. I think these might be the reason why he is in crazy attack mode whenever my finger/hand is close. he would keep biting me even when he was on my hand or arm, so I tried the twisting finger/hand/arm advice, it might have reinforced his belief that my finger/hand/arm is unstable. when he bit my hand I also tried the advice of pushing gently into the bite and I might have hurt him or he might have seen that action as aggression 3. when I first tried to get him to step up on my finger, he was reaching out to bite a little bit to test the stability of my hand/finger and I got scared and pulled away, it might have repeatedly given him the impression that my hand is not trustworthy 2. I looked online and also watched a lot of YouTube video for advice, and I have some theories as to why he hates my hands and fingers so much: 1. Whenever my hand or finger is close, he is in crazy attack mode and it draws blood every time. But he is very aggressive with me and he hates my hands and fingers especially. ![]() ![]() Not only is my husband the only person he doesn't bite, he is totally comfortable with my husband handling him however he wants to, such as petting, head scratching, snuggling, kissing, etc. īirdy very quickly became very friendly, cuddly and intimate with my husband. So it will probably turn into a very lengthy Birdy behaviour description. I lot of the advice I looked up online doesn't seem to apply to our situation. Since I'm a very new owner, so I have a lot of questions. But based on the naughty behaviour, I assumed it's a boy (I know it's not fair to make the assumption.). We didn't know anything about our little conure. His coworker found the little bird in her yard and after putting up flyers in the neighbourhood and a long waiting, nobody came to claim the little guy/girl and she can't take care of a parrot, so my husband took him/her home since I have always wanted a bird. My husband got me a pineapple green cheek conure on Nov.
