Hey again,

Things have been going really good with our green cheek..He loves everyone he has come in contact with..I do have some questions though..I was wondering,what he is trying to say when he head bobs??He seems crazy excited when he does it..

Also,I was told by someone at the pet store that it is bad to pet birds wings because it would be like seducing them sexually..Is that true??What are some good things to start doing to get him to bond more with me and my gf??He loved both of us from the first day we met,soo we already have a good start..It's been like 2 weeks since we got him..

He has been good about going to sleep in his cage at night these days,I think he didn't sleep too good at first because he just moved in..He asks for a lot of attention and we give him a lot but sometimes we don't answer his screams so he learns that screaming won't get us to come to him..

He is biting some but not hard at all(I figure it's cause he's only 4 months old and is growing up)..We have been working on getting him to stop biting by holding his bottem part of his beak and saying no bite..What are good ways to teach him to talk??Thanks a lot for the help..
