Then we put her on top of her cage, and she talks while we work (she can see us from there). She flies around the house a little bit, walks all over the floor and mostly roams the kitchen counter. So you see, she is a very friendly bird and an integral part of our family.
My husband handles her all the time, feeding her and talking to her. But every 4 to 6 months, she one day gets up being a b*tch and bites him for no reason. He's put up with it long enough and after this last (very violent) incident, he told me that if she bites him again, she is history, he will throw her out of the house.
So, it is a pretty sucky situation. Let me rush to those online resources.

THANX AGAIN!
Muah!
i was told by a trainer that birds are really stupid . . and the only way to have them stop biting you is to let them bite you until they figure out you don't care . . very scary though with a parrot
