My baby blue
Moving in
I bought my lovebird blue about 4 days ago. He is about two months give or take (I have not had blue DNA tested yet he is so little! But my boyfriend absolutely swears blue is a boy since he loves me so much and hates him so we say he is a he ) I had been reading up on parrot care and lovebird care for weeks before getting my baby blue from the breeder and I was expecting blue to take much longer to warm up to me but instead around the second day he managed to figure out how to open his cage( at this point blue was in a smaller temporary cage as I was having complications with his big permanent home I had ordered online) so once I picked him up to perch him back in his cage he didn't seem to have a problem with me handling him. He learned step up within hours and has kept up the progress... four days later he sleeps on my shoulder and cuddles up behind my ear on my neck. But that's all he wants to do ! He will NOT LEAVE MY SHOULDER, no matter how many treats I offer for him to step down it may deter him for mere seconds but he's right back to flying to my shoulder. He now starts to bite me when he is exclusively on my shoulder and I'm asking him to step up to my finger and will climb down my back so I will not reach him. What can I do to get him off because as much as I love cuddles with him he can really bite !
