Answer
Hi Nancy,

Here are some articles (and links to books) that will help with the biting and aggression you are experiencing with Sammy. Part of the aggression might be related to fear (since he is so young, it sounds like he wasn't properly socialized as a chick at the breeders and/or pet store that you got him from):
