Mihai Your baby is just being that A BABY. Do you use any gloves or sticks to try to get him to step up on them? You have to be calm and patent until he is ready to trust you. Sometimes this is a very long process depending how you try to interact with him. You can not force him to come out or be touched until he is ready. There is never going to be a time in his life that he will never bite, (he is a parrot) but you have to learn his body languge and know when it's ok to put your hands any where near him.

You can also try clicker training him... That's what I would do with a wild/semi wild bird.
