Hello. So I recently got two new parrotlets. One is only 4 mo old or so, the other is young, but who knows, maybe even up to a year (the breeder lied to me).
ANyway... I keep them completely separate. The older one Monty, bites becaus he's super wild and is agressive/territorial, sometimes i think scared. And now my baby one, Louie, that was soo sweet, the last couple of days starts to bite me too!
He wants bite my lips and my fingers. When he bites I usually make an "eehh ehh" sound to distract him. And... now he does that sound and bites me. lol . I hope this is a sign he might talk one day??? Anyway, back on subject. What can I do?
I have heard to distract them with a treat... but to me, that seems like I"m saying bite me and get a treat. He is getting more comfortable which is bring out the biting. right now he is going Eh eh , like i do, and is trying to pull up the keyboard keys. He also likes to try to pull up the keys to my phone. SHould I not let him to this? He looks like he is playing, but maybe I should not let him bite stuff hard? He doesn't really play with his toys, except the swing. Sometimes he "mouths" me, but he's def. biting now. And doing the sound I make.
