My name is Susan. I am a senior citizen and live alone with my black headed caique. His name is Mango. Mango is five years old. I have had him since he was about four months old. He has recently started to bite me hard enough to draw blood. He has food agression and toy aggression to the point where he gets all puffed up, shreiks and tries to bite me even if I just walk by where he is . He tries to attack my adult sons if they walk by his cage. I have tried everything, but nothing works! Help!

:hello: and :welave:

one thing I could suggest if he is food motivated could be clicker training to start target training so that you can use a perch to remove him from his surroundings so he can get away from food and cage area.
