Has Anyone ‘Housebroken’ Their Parrot?
One of the answers from the big Q.
It has been done but I personally advise against it. It is unnatural for them to hold it, and if they become too well potty trained they may harm themselves if they think they can’t go at any given time.
My answer
Parrots poop about every 15 minutes on average.

How Can I Train My Aggressive African Grey to Sit on My Hand?
Every time I try to get my new Congo grey to sit on my hand, he bites me.
How long do I have to keep getting bitten?
Biting is never acceptable.
Not from a bird, dog, cat nor any other pet (said the lion trainer).
Getting bitten solves nothing.
One of the questions we ask here is why is your bird aggressive?
In many cases this is a hormonal issue that can partially be controlled with light.
