Hi all,
I have an 8 month old male ekky who is amazing, he loves kisses and cuddles and has just started talking.
1.5 months ago my then partner adopted a 1.5 year old female ekky and at first she loved me and only wanted me. To everyone else she would bite and it would be hard, until blood was dripping.
My partner started working with her and she started to distance herself from me. I continued to handle and train her until randomly one day she bit me. I still tried to handle her, but she continued to bite and act aggressively.
My partner was working with her still and she was friendly towards him. We have separated and I am wanting to try again with her as I would hate for her to become a caged bird.
What can I do? I tried to start all over and use perches to start getting her to step up but she just attacks them.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated, thanks.
