Hello SuperMommy,

I would also remove all being on arm, hand priviledges. Don't let the bird be on your arm so it can't bite you.

The idea of using dowels or perches to handle the bird is wise it removes biting opportunites.

Is there a treat this bird really likes? Does your daughter know about clicker training?

Pushing back when the bird bites will force the bird to let go but for a month or so I would remove your hands and use a perch or branch when dealing with this bird.

Treat the bird often if it is being a non biter.

Cheers,

Bulli
