suddenly biting

[jadekynezos]

so i got my indian ringneck for christmas and he was only young and i had to continue to hand feed him for the next two weeks. he was behaving perfectly fine and friendly but now he just suddenly started to be aggressive, biting, but not heaps hard and lashing out at our hands and various objects. im not too sure what change his behaviour, he is still friendly but at times just decides to get all aggressive. any suggestions?

If you use the search button up the right and search "biting" or "bluffing" (which is younger birds biting to kinda test the boundaries) there's some great threads about it already also on the website before you get to the forum there's a heading called articles and there's a bit on bluffing there too

I haven't had experience myself with biting but I have read plenty of posts about it.

Hope that helps
