Re: Angry at My Amazon

I read some tips on the Bird Whisperer website for a bitey bird - offer
your hand by making a fist and bending it in to stretch the skin on the
outside of the wrist and offer that spot to the bird to step up. with
the skin beinig strectched taught it is very difficult for the bird to
bite with nothing to really to hold on to. Since he won't get a
reaction to a bite since he couldn't bite, he realizes that it is safe
to step up.

I may not have it perfect, but you get the idea - and check out the
website too.

Good luck
