Answer 1

First get it's wings clipped that will make a very big difference,if you have a mirror in the cage get it out or it will bond with the bird in the mirror and will not let you even put your hand in the cage.

     You          can contact me if you like.

Answer 2

I also had a love bird that was hard to tame. Talk to the lovebird softly. Approach it slowly. Lovebirds tend to be protective of their cages so it's best not to start quickly and stick your hand inside the cage, which will startle the bird.Spend a lot of time handling and interacting with the lovebird. It will take some time for the bird to develop trust and spending time with it is a crucial step in taming a lovebird.

First off, when you get a bird, you gotta know what your dealing with, and in this case, seems like you don't know how. A lot of people keep asking the same question over and over again. You should consider researching about a pet before getting one! Anyways, since you've had him for a few weeks now, you should be able to feed him with your fingers. If not, try talking to him every time you walk past his cage and tell him what a good guy he is. Once your able to feed him, put some treat on your palm and let him reach for it. That's basically it. Otherwise if you want him to 'step up' on command, when your able to feed him, contact me, and ill let you know how. Good Luck.
