My wife and I adopted two conures from a rescue, they're probably about 2 years old now. I've been having good luck clicker training them (they now step up onto my finger instead of biting it). My wife, on the other hand, is visually impaired and cannot read their body language - so she can't tell if they've got that "I'm about to bite you" look about them. I've tried working with her using the same method I did but it ends up being a bloody proposition.
Does anyone have any advice or ideas on how to get them to stop biting my wife? all she wants is to be able to pet them like our old bird - which may be a while off, but stepping up would be a great start!
thanks!
