Step,
Thanks for replying. She (Peaches) is 8 years old. We have had her for a little over 6 months now. She used to when my 6 year old grandson (or any child) was here only associate with him and would attact the adults. Then when there was no children present she loved everyone me especially. We could handle her, pet her, scrach her head, etc. The last weekend my grandson was here Oct 4-5, when she tried to attacted me for the umpteenth time, I locked her in her cage until he went home. Since then she will not have anything to do with me. She still followes my husband around trying to get him to pick her up and starts talking to him the min. he comes in the house. But if I am anywhere near her she will come running at me wings flapping, mouth open, and tail feather spread. When there is no one at home but me, she will not get off her cage, but launches ambushes if I get too near the cage. Her wings have not been clipped since we had her. She shares a five foot tall three foot by three foot cage with a yellow nap McCaw (Mickey) we have had for several years that belongs to my husband and only my husband can handle her. She is not a sociable bird at all. Both birds get along well they are not closed up in the cage during the day, they stay on top of the cage where their play gym is. At night Peaches goes "nighty nighty" inside the cage with the door closed and Mickey perfers to stay on top of the cage and snuggle up under some newspaper. I really hope you can help me with this I have scars all over me from her attacks. Just one more thing before I close, when she attacks me she laughs and says "Did it hurt?" She calls me a dirty word, noone else, when my husband is home she will not let me talk everytime I open my mouth she starts yelling "shut up! shut up!l shut up!.
