If you have a Sun Conure,
from day 1 it is not that friendly...
the owner spends a lot of time with it
and at most it is willing to take a Sunflower seed from the owner's hand.
Other than that, it always bits the fingers so hard until they bleed
whenever the owner wanna touch it... or even attempt to touch it...

If you were the owner, what would you do?
