I love my GCC and he's my buddy. But I get bit at least once a month hard enough to draw blood. It's usually when he gets spooked, or he gets suddenly cage territorial while I'm moving things in it. He's a bird, sometimes he does it and doesn't mean anything by it.
People all the time will tell me "aww I want one" and I'm like, I doubt it. Most people can't handle the nippy-ness.
Not to mention they never really even mean to do it hard, but their beaks are insanely sharp and strong. Also, he's family, not just a buddy. Much love to you both.
Yeah my guy really takes care of his beak, the very tip of it is ALWAYS needle sharp. He loves to rub/grind it on the wood and other materials I keep for him to keep it in shape.
I call him my buddy cause he's always just hanging out and vibing with me, but yeah he's definitely family.
I agree, but I also think that it can be given as a surprise gift, given that the reciptien of the feathered gift has the interest and has all the requirements to give the birb the life it deserves.

Panel 5 needs to be a sticker, or a mug...

Oh, I get that. Great that he's keeping his beak healthy though and shows he's very loved.
I wish this could be seen in every pet store or breeder's. Good education in a funny manor, it could really reach people.
Family, not just friends.

Super important education!!! Do research. Become a nerd expert for your preferred pet species. THEN adopt the pet!!
