How To Handle A Parrot That Bites Hands

Parrots That Bite Think You Have Many Fingers! You have ten fingers, but that doesn't mean that you are willing to give one or two to your parrot! A parrot's hook bill is - like a hook! And it is the strongest beak in the avian world - right? No body wants to be bitten by such a powerful beak - and some parrots, like Macaws, can send you and your finger to the ER! What do you about a parrot that bites hands? Parrots can be territorial over 'their' space, or their cage. If your parrot bites when you put your hand in his or her cage, then... stop. Use a stick. :) I don't consider this to be a "problem" in the sense that, if your parrot is too aggressive then you need to work with them, but I believe that everyone, including my parrots, should have their own space and they should be able to ask you to stay out of their space - and when we don't understand the ask, they often bite. My point: I wouldn't focus on them biting in their cage, I would focus on their behavior outside their cage, especially when they are on "common grounds."
