I have tried many ways of stopping him to bite like using a squirty bottle, pushing into his beak when he bites me and more, but none of them have worked. Just today, I was trying jus with my finger and I decided to wrap some plastic wrap around my finger so if he bit me he would taste plastic and stop. Amazingly I found that he didn't bite me at all. I'm not sure why it worked but it did. So I took the plastic off and still he didn't bite me. Anyway, its just an experimental thing so I hope it will come in handy for anyone else with a biting budgie. Link to comment

Just be careful he doesn't ingest the plastic. Link to comment

Newton is vicious and she bites sooo hard. But she's so cute I just can't be mad at her. Link to comment
