Moving in
I'm going to be very honest here and say that I have finally given up trying to keep my 3-yr-old blue-headed Pionus, Bella, who has on several occasions bitten my face, arm and fingers. I am aware of her body language when she should be left alone -- strutting slowly with feathers ruffled. But she bites me without warning, and I throw a fit, knock her off my arm or wherever she's standing at the time, and use a broom to shove her into her cage. So, not surprisingly, we do not trust each other. I am also angry at her because every time she has a chance, she attacks our baby TAG, who is nothing but sweet and just wants to play. I am going to work very hard to find a GOOD home for her. I hate the thought of her being mistreated, so I am hoping that one of you angels knows someone who can take her in their loving care. Bella is very quiet and most of the time just keeps to herself (doesn't play with toys). Her cage is large and full of toys, with a playtop and bamboo swing above it, so she is well provided for. I know it's too late to correct my mistakes as far as how I have treated Bella, so I am now praying that someone with more patience than me will want to give her a home. She seems to get along very well with men.
