Whenever I feed my conure, he fluffs up and tries to attack me. Today, he took two big chomps on each scoop. I don’t get why he’s territorial with his food bowl, and I want the biting to stop. Can you guys help me?

What cage do you have? Do you have feeder doors?
If not, attaching the food bowl to the large door of the cage can help, you can open it and do the food away from your bird.

I do have feeder trap doors, but he attacks me there, too. He just goes for my hand.
