I have a blue and gold macaw and he is kind of aggressive he will only let me touch him and if anyone else try's he will bite them and I'm just wondering if there is any tips from other parrot owners on how to get him to warm to other people because he excellent with me.
 
For biting parrots I find this technique very useful You reward your parrot for being calm and offer it the space it wants. The key though is to reward the bird with space when they remain calm, not to push and push until they are petting him. Petting may happen eventually in its own time.

It also depends on how confident the other person is! They will over ride you if they find you to be a easy target. They're kids that never grows up and will push their limits!
