ok i got this bird a few months ago still not tamed .... he would step up only if i had spray millet if hes hungry and his toys like mirror and his fav bell .... but i wanted a more affectionate burd so is it okay to get him a friend which is from a breeder baby ????? or will the new bird get wild again if hes with my burd? My current bird also bites so yea ... but he can talk abit:) he stays in my room so i have alot of time for the birds if that helps ....
It sounds like you're pushing him to much & he is reacting badly to it. Birds don't like that. You need to earn the birds trust, be patient & take the time your bird needs to trust you. Trying to make them do things will just make them worse.
Take a step back & start from scratch again. Work at your birds pace, not yours & it will give you better results. Don't expect miracles from the bird within days. You will only set yourself up for major disappointment. Some birds only take a few days to learn things & start to trust you, others can takes to months. Take your time ...
pets question and answers,www.5d2d.com Do some googling on training as well. There is a very good website that you should read up on about training your bird.

If you get him another bird it is possible to lose both birds. They may bond a close friendship & will not become interested in you at all. That will make training extremely difficult & sometimes impossible. You also have the risk of them not getting along at all. If this happens what are you going to do? You need a plan B for that because not all birds get along together & you can't tell who will & who won't until you have the 2 birds together for the first time.
If you really want to train your bird properly then go to that site I mentioned & read it.
