I did not do anything I hold it and does not like being held,and I am petting and holding it. It turn and bite me very had and not let go. I had a female in 2010 that bite hard just like this one. I can tell it act like girl and look like a girl. This is my old old parakeet Bird,it took me 5 years to finally find out to be a girl. For 5 years I thought it was a boy. I am still going to get a DNA on this one. So do have the same problem back and forth.  this is birdie,she had the same cere like Olivia.  This is Jasmin my other bird Female.  ![]()   My new parakeet has the same light color blue just like these two. Were I would see it change. I do see tan in my bird cere the rest is light blue,not purple, or pink. |

yes, but grabbing him is not teachin him that it will not hurt him, in fact it is teaching him the opposite. you have to work slow, sometimes being held cannot be accomplished, just depends on the bird

I suggest not putting your hand behind Olivia at all. Offer him your finger. If he doesn't want to perch, don't make him. It's not worth getting bit so hard repeatedly. Maybe you could start slowly, by offering him treats from your fingers, but not requiring him to be held to earn them. I can only imagine how relieved you will feel once you've had the DNA test, because I myself will feel relief to finally know for sure.  |

She love my finger so much. I also heard other birds can teach new bird to trust there owner. Olivia follow Sunny and Meka. Meka teach Olivia how to kiss my nose and be touch a little. If she watches Meka over and over again I am sure she will get it. |
