Hi there!
I have a bit of a problem with one of my beloved conures Loki. Over the past couple of months loki has become very attached to my sunny, Gizmo. So attached that I no longer can go to their cage and not have Loki jumping on the cage, flaring his tail and attempting to bite my hand. Some occasions I am able to get him to step up without biting (of course I reward this with a treat) but 80% of the time nasty bites on my hand are the end result.
As soon as I get loki out of his cage I go to a neutral room where Gizmo isn't present. Loki behaviour’s alot better here but still is prone to biting. Does anyone have any tips on getting him to like me? Do I need to separate Gizmo and Loki in order to get Loki to settle down? Please help!
Thank you so much!
