What I do with mine is to "change the subject" so to speak, by talking to them or distracting them with a toy as soon as they start the behaviour. That works well but sometimes I just get one settled down and the other starts!

Great videos! I noticed one where teasing him, let him win once in a while unless he bites. This may allow him to think as a hand less of a conquest, but mostly it's like jane says; distract him with a treat or toy. Well at least you know he's a male! Pretty bird BTW!

Thanks very much for the help. We have started distracting him and it seems to help. He is determined though.
