i put on a pair of gardening gloves and just held mine in my hands and just talked to him in a soft voice till he calmed down.

he would bite away, but would soon realize it didn't do anything and actually stopped.

hasn't bitten since.

thanks guys

I just put a towel on my hand but I want him to get use to my hand so I can teach him tricks
but I think he is to wild and aggressive to become hand reared

Hi indi,

I doubt he is too wild or aggressive to be hand tamed. (Hand rearing is the process of raising the baby with humans taking the job of the parent bird.) It is quite likely his "aggression" is only self defense.

If you put a towel over your hand the bird will not gain positive exposure to the hand and thus will never become comfortable with the hand.

I will ask you a second time to give details of your problem and if you cannot do that then I'm afraid people are not going to be able to help you.
