O__O leon can bite pretty hard probably nothing compared to Munch, but for a parakeet it is pretty hard sometimes. butch just latches on to any fleshy part of your hand and moves his beak as if he was moving his 'bottom jaw' back and fourth

ahh! oops i didnt see that! stupid auto correct! next parakeet will be named parapete  i take back what i said about the biting.. they are both very bad! i was bit a lot this morning! i still have 3 red marks on my hand from butch, one being more of a lump and leon.... i was trying to catch the little bugger to make sure i can catch him when his wings are long and need to be clipped. i tryied it in his cage this time and he is a sneaky little pain! i will try to grab him and he manages to jump onto my hand instead. then he sings his 'biting song' and he starts biting so in other words i am going to fail when i need to clip his wings  slippery little devil! |

yep.. and he still jumps before i can grab him or when i am moving in he just jumps on my hand for fun like its a game.... i tried it with out the towel and he bit a lot -__- i am trying it in his travel cage today. i wouldnt mind keeping his wings long but when they are and he flies to the ground, he will run away from me. and he did that this morning and i got him on my finger and he would scream and fly off. he did this many times and i had to get his toy  |
