Zippi Cockatiel I live in Wales uk My name is Jan	Mint seem to be very nasty when I put my hand in the cage with treats..they are in a dish which hangs on the rails..(like a seed one) She dive bombs my hand and hangs on with her beak to whatever part of me she can... It brought tears to my eyes today drats.... I dont know how to stop it.. other than not putting my hand in :wub: Sky doesnt... Im wondering if another cage for a few hours with her in it on her own would help? I dont seem to be able to manage a little bird.... How daft is that :question: Could also be excitement maybe... What do you think? A very embarrassed Jan :wub:

Budgeries four off I live in a mess of my own making !!! My name is I'll give you a clue	you could try it for a while Jan, if you put the cages together they will be fine although they may shout for a while. then you could try using treats with mint to stop her biting. And then you would be able to spend more time with sky as well with out mint biting you. she may well be protecting sky which is why she is after you, bubbles does the same when I get near to Squeak. there's nothing to be embarrassed about :)

Pesto is very cage territorial so when I feed them they go mad! Yesterday he actually jumped out of the cage and bit me twice. He usually stays in the cage and turns so puffy he looks like a little hunchback, twittering and screaming all the while! :rolleyes:
