Veren

oh and is there anything i can do everyday with him that will help? i do spend alot of time next to his cage talking to him and stuff like that. but should i try something else?

Sorry for not introducing myself Hi my name's Veren and im from South Africa. I have a TAG and his name is Spikey. He's about 6 years old now and i had him from the time he was 6 weeks old. what more can i say.. just love em to bits!! (even through the biting lol). thanks for the reply though guys!! il try balling up my hand. but what should i do if that doesnt work? i know itl take time and i have no problem with that at all:) i just wanna make sure i do it right! i do let him out of his cage, i just open the door and he climbs out every morning himself. loves to sit on top of the cage and talk and whistle. then after a few hours he'd either go back in his cage himself or id draw him in by putting a toy or something in the cage. he doesnt perch on my hand from the top of the cage and its even worse if i try to get him to do it from inside the cage. he sometimes lets me pick him up without biting when he's on the floor and needs to go back on the cage. thanks again for the reply guys!!

hey guys, i have a grey thats about 6years old. when i got him as a baby, he was hand reared and he was fine. however for the last 4 or 5 years he's got really aggressive. as soon i put my hand down for him to climb onto, he either bites (really hard) or backs away. i read up that you should not force it so i dont. a also tried not pulling my hand away when he does bite and sternly say "no!" but that doesnt help either. i aslo tried distracting him while putting my hand down for him to pearch on but that doesnt help either lol. please please please can you guys give me any suggestions??? thank you!!
