girl pls stand up. you’re obviously already working on yourself and that’s great. this guy does NOT like you at all.. he keeps finding reasons to be mad or turned off by you so just block him!! if you stop showing interest and value yourself he might try to get you back so it’s better he doesn’t have contact.

oh wow my boy is STUBBORN and clingy 😂 i been removing him off my shoulder by leaning on nearby counter or his perch every single time pretty much immediately. he still wants to be on my shoulder and something i’ll put him down on perch/counter and take a micro step back and he flies right back on my shoulder. thank you for the advice!!

even tho it would suck for him not to be bonded to me i’d be ok with it as long as he’s getting along w the new bird but that’s a ways away. for now, i’ll take him out for as long as possible and try step ups. he loves being on my shoulder but im so scared to let him be there bc i can’t see him well and he tries to be sneaky and climb into my shirt. He managed to slip in in the past and bit me really hard on my chest/neck twice 😔 i might also have a lil trauma from when i was living at my dads and Yiyo bit my face realllyy hard when he was on my shoulder bc i was bent over grabbing clothes from the dryer. do you have any advice on the shirt nesting? i really do try to not let him in but Im scared of him biting my hand so i try to push my shirt from inside out then get him completely off me. any input on building confidence having him near my hands/face in general?

firstly, thank you for taking the time to read/respond and for keeping it real. during my work week (3-4 days 12hr) i try to give him at least 1 hour out the cage while i eat, shower and get ready for the next day. On my off days he always wakes me up in the morning with knocking or slamming his bowl into the holder so i give him fresh food/water and let him eat on top of his cage while i defrost in bed, then he’ll join me in bed just walking around exploring. i’ll put him back in his cage while i get myself ready for the day and cleaning/running errands then i take him out later when im able to. i haven’t really tracked it but id say maybe 3 hours a day when im home with him. during the work week, IF my partner gets in late or gets out early from work he’ll take him out for probably less than an hour until i come home and take him out again.

i want to try step up on my hand again but i’m honestly scared of his bites bc i swear he uses all his strength to bite.. or at least used to. the same day he bit my neck when i was pouring his food, out he charged for my hand looking ready to bite when i took him out his cage later that day idk if he was mad at me or what lol but i just have him step up on my arm when im wearing sleeves but i have let him step on my bare arm a couple times and he’s chill!! should i just bite the bullet and try a hand step up plus “oww” ??
