Meeting neighbors
Well today my bird decided to attack my fingers...
She is a 9 mo old GCC, and normally she will nip here and there to let me know she isn't happy.. today I came home and let her out to give fresh veggies .. and she stepped up and went nuts on my fingers.. normally i can tell when she is unhappy.. I don't know what went wrong?
Then I stepped away and let her calm down.. then she started fanning her tail in an aggressive stance .. bowing her head? .. she did not run at me or anything like that..
I have NEVER seen her do this before.. my idea was to let her be .. but she just kept coming after my fingers.. I don't know what to do with her to show her that it is NOT okay to attack my finger?
She is also becoming more cage aggressive (i.e. knowing when I'm about to put her back she bites the heck out of my fingers), she used to go back so easily?
I actually had to let my boyfriend come in and put her back she was biting me so badly.. I just DONT GET IT?
I know it has to be something I'm doing to provoke this.. just very distressing that i just can't figure out what?
PLEASEEEEE HELP!!
