Birdzilla Posted April 4, 2008 Share Posted April 4, 2008 i have a grey who is extremely vocal and playful but he wont let me pick him up. its been 4 months and hes still biting me. he jumps off the cage and is very untrusting. im trying to make him feel secure. I dont know what happened to him b4 i got him, or if its personality. he loves me and trys to find me all the time. but stepping up is a whole other issue. any tricks or ideas?

judygram Posted April 4, 2008 Share Posted April 4, 2008 Hello Birdzilla and welcome to the family, so glad you decided to join us and we look forward to hearing more about you and your grey, btw what is his name? If this is a rehomed grey no wonder you are having problems with him and if you don't know what his former home life was like then that makes it even more difficult to understand him. It will take time for him to learn to trust you and bond with you so be very patient with him, continue to talk to him and offer him treats and do not give up, he needs you to be there for him. Take some time and read thru the many threads for lots of useful and helpful information and do not hesitate to ask questions you may have. We will do our best to get you some answers and help you in any way we can. If you have some pictures you would like to share with us we would love to see him.

danmcq Posted April 5, 2008 Share Posted April 5, 2008 Hi Birdzilla, Did you still need help with your grey? We needed a little more information on his background to be of any help with the step-up and biting issue. :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Talon Posted April 5, 2008 Share Posted April 5, 2008 Welcome to our family. Yes, as the others have noted, a little history would be extremely helpful to us, before we can fully help you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
