Thanks Lotus. Emma is a "small and delicate" african grey. Doesn't even weigh One pound. I have no clue how much timnehs weigh. Are they the same as Emma? Yesterday we were at the vet after she had breakfast and she only weighed 414 grams. She is all muscle too because she flies and is quite active. I think Gg's (Boogie) and Newf's (Quincy and Luna) african greys are heavy weights though..
Emma is just wonderful. I never tire seeing and especially hearing her. Was she saying all those things except the 'Emma' at the end? Sometimes I can't tell the difference except when she reverts to her native 'accent' that all Greys seem to have when speaking words.
BTW, her weight isn't all that small for a CAG but not big either. I think averages are somewhere in the 450-500g, with extremes well below and above that range. Martine's Rocky might be a bit bigger, IIRC.
Titanis, You are correct. That was ALL Emma, except the wee bit at the end when I call out her name is *exasperation* She always finds a way to pounce on the camera. Thanks for the info about her weight.. I've always kind of wondered whether she considered to be a lightweight.
