We must remember how the bird must feel and what it is going through. They have only been with you less then under a month, it is a strange new place and every bird takes to a situation differently. Some like your other 2 are fine and come around quickly and others feel like they need to defend or protect themselves that is okay.

 

All birds have different backgrounds which form their personality. Birds that didn't have much human interaction will bite in fear etc... We have to remember birds are not domesticated like dogs or cats they are "wild" until tamed and form a trusting bond to a certain degree will then only show you their other side.

 

When we learn about why they do what they do and their behavior it is better then understanded and we can then work with them.
