How to stop a parrot from biting in seven easy steps. - Family - Pets

The parrots are strange in a way that they do not use their beaks for attacking their own flock. They do not use it as an attacking weapon but they use it as a defensive weapon when some predator attacks them. This means that the parrot biting is not something that parrots do naturally. It's a displacement behavior that can be corrected. Parrots will be showing this change in behavior because of two reasons; either they do it for the survival purpose when they feel terrified or they do it because of some hormonal disorder.

If your parrot is biting, here are seven steps that will help you to stop your parrot from parrot bite.

The first thing you need to do is to be careful while training your parrots. If you are not calm, the parrots will spot it and they will bite.

When your parrot is biting, you should read its behavior. This will help you to interpret the cause of the parrot bite. At the time of interpreting, do not look in to the eyes of the parrot. Also avoid any emotions if the parrot has developed a habit of biting.

To stop the biting, you need to tell the parrot that nothing has happened. You can various things to make him think like that. You can walk away when he bites and show no pain.

Your parrot may also bite to tell you that it needs some time alone. So if the biting continues, try to leave the parrot alone in the cage.Make sure that you treat your parrot like a boss. You can use the laddering technique to teach him that. This will be a very helpful tool to help you stop the parrot bite. Remember that patience is the key and you should not get too hasty as this will not help the cause at all. Make sure that your behavior with the parrot is commanding but not harsh.

Also keep in mind that the young parrots often bite when they are in the teething age. You can again show them that you are the boss to make sure that they do not bite. You can do this by giving them the commands in a firm tone but be careful not to should out too loud.
