Spoiled rottin little Herbie

Herbie is 6 month old timeh african grey. He will be 7 months old July 18th. I've had him a little over a week. He kept making this little wimper and then when hubby would put his hand near his beek he would grab it and start bobbin his head like he wanted to be hand fed. I called the shop where I got him. They had him for 3 months and yes they have been still giving him handfeed. I said you have him spoiled rottin. Herbie found out that hubby wasn't going to hand feed him now he begs from me. He won't eat his parrot food that well. So I have some rainbow pellets that I feed the cockateils and he likes them. He does like to almonds in his parrot food though. so what is your sugestion to get him to quit wanting to be handfed. Here is the spoiled little stinker
