Can an african grey parrot bite a finger off?

1 Answer

Answer :

The most painful bird bite to experienced is from an African Grey. The important thing to remember about some bird bites, especially Greys, is what we call the “pressure bites”. They bite down and chew…. HARD! They don’t twist, pierce or go for any super-accurate locations like the smaller ones. These guys just use brute force to bite and chew. The chewing is the worst part of the bite. Although faded, I have a scars that where you can make out distinct beak marks. according to @featherfriendsff on facebook
