You know all those cute bird videos that show birds being sweet and cuddly? I want videos of birds interacting with their parents when the birbs are being bad, how the parents react and what the birbs do. That's what I'd like to see.
Like birb bites parent, parent reacts by putting birb in cage, or other location, birb sits there. See, nobody wants to see these, but I do because maybe it will help me be a better birb parent and not feel so alone with a birb who refuses to learn not to bite.
Yes, I do have a new bite. She went for my hand in the middle of scratches, I told her no, she charged up my chest and grabbed my neck in her beak and bit me like crazy, Now I have this swollen lump under my skin. 😢

Sounds like your birb gone bad.

@arroezze Well, yeah, kinda. She was super sweet until about 6 months and the hormones kicked in. The last year 2.5 years have been a LOT of bloody bites and unpredictable behavior. I keep being told that I just need to wait it out, but it might be as long as another 6 years.
