Hi Veronica,

Here are some wonderful websites with information about biting:

http://www.birdsnways.com/wisdom/ww12eii.htm

I also highly recommend the book: "The Beak Book" It is all about biting and aggressive behavior in parrots. It is written by Sally Blanchard, and you can purchase it on www.amazon.com, or on her website directly at: www.companionparrot.com

I hope this helps.
