Just wanted to tell everyone I got bit really hard by my little monster parrot Brutus. That little turkey gave me a nasty bite today, in fact, he bit me so hard I can’t move half of my hand. Just typing this makes me cringe. Just thought I would post this and run some thoughts around for you guys.
While getting bitten, I kept thinking to myself this is why parrots go from home to home. Many owners lose their trust or take it personal. They are in shock or disbelief that their sweet little birdy could lash out on them—I know I was. And as mentioned above, they automatically remove the parrot from their house.
I’ll tell you one thing, I have been bitten by many birds and I know that when I get bit by a ringneck, I jump right back into handling them with little fear; however, this bite was different. My sweet African Grey turned into a lion in the savannah—his fangs came out and he pounced on me ready to devour any flesh he could find
LoL… 
I found myself so nervous to pick Brutus back up that I had to walk out of the room and collect myself. I had so many thoughts running through my head-- How could something that I loved so much turn on me? Why did he bite me? Did I scare him? What was he thinking?
But while thinking, I had to reaffirm that though parrots are affectionate creatures, they can bite, and I guess it is something that needs to be accepted. I guess I made the mistake of trusting my parrot so much that I was in disbelief when I got bit—in a sense you could say I believed him to be humanlike. When he bit me, I did not yell and I did force him to step up without a reaction—and let me tell you….that was very difficult!
LoL!!! My hand was bleeding pretty darn good! 
LoL!!!
Just wanted to let everyone know that parrots can be so loving and if your sweet little monster ever decides to give you a nasty bite
, collect yourself and don’t take it personal—parrots are parrots and they have bad days too! Maybe next time I should bite back too! LoL!!! Just kidding, my advice is to ignore it and expect the unexpected cause parrots are wild animals a few generations removed from the wild!
Till the next bite take care,

But your right they are still wild and they do have bad days. One of the responsablities in owning a parrot is know your going to get bit, now when and how bad is a toss up
