african grey

Hey guys... So as the title implies - we are on the brink of bringing a new baby home. Well, not so much a baby.. he is a 4-5 year old male white bellied Caique. His name is Reggie and I am absolutely in love with him.. I just have a few concerns I am hoping someone can help me with. So...

Hi guys.. so we have had Oliver now for about a month, and have just finished out his 30 day quarantine period, have had all blood work, cultures, CBC and polyoma tests back negative for ANYTHING, so we have had both Oliver (the baby grey), and Emma (3 year old female Eclectus), in the same...

Our African grey keeps doing this to me, is he seeking attention or something else? He's recently been rehomed by us and won't have us touch him yet but when he does this he asks for a kiss or cuddles.

Hi, our African grey keeps making this noise at me is it a sign of him wanting fuss? As we rehomed him we can't touch him properly yet but he asks for a kiss making this noise to me at the side of the cage ☺️ Tried to put vid but won't let me.

Hey guys... Ok, so I am about ready to bring Oliver home (a brand new baby Timneh African Grey), and although they may seem stupid, I have some quick general questions. So right now we only have one parrot, Emma, and she is an Eclectus, so her diet is very specific. No seeds, no nuts, no millet...

Ok guys, so sorry to keep posting but this will be the last question filled post for a while I promise! So, we have made the decision to bring home the little baby Timneh African Grey, his name is Oliver. My wife and I have been like 50 times over the last few months and so it is anything but...

Ok guys... So my wife and I have decided on an adorable little baby Timneh African Grey boy (actually he kind of chose us), and are going to put our deposit down tomorrow afternoon. We are both SUPER excited, and he will be ready to come home in about a month, give or take of course. Here is...

So I'm back again.. I STILL have not made a conclusive, definite decision.. But I am getting close. Here is where I am at. The same breeder I am talking with has just taken in 3 adorable little baby Timneh African Greys. Of course she told me, and of course I went and met them, and of course I...

My baby, Storm, a 3 year old Congo African Grey, was spooked away on 05/07/16 by the lawn care services. We spotted him yesterday, but the crowd chased him away. Please call me if you see him or know of his capture. 952-807-1233. Thank you! We are located in Cottage Grove, Minnesota

I'm Britney, and I have a year old white bellied caique. She will be two in July. We've had her since she was six months, and though sometimes its been rough, we love her and value her as a member of our family, instead of a pet. However, we've been looking into adding another avian to our...

Hi everyone, I'm new to the forum and was struggling to find many opinions through Google, so thought I would do a post in here. I'm an experienced parrot owner, I've hand reared umbrella cockatoos and African greys, as well as rehabilitated & re homes abused birds such as eclectus. I live in...

Hello all! I am new to the forum. We are getting a CAG, our first bird! It will be about 4 months old when we get it, provided everything goes smoothly with the weaning. My husband and I are interested in a sleeping/roosting cage but would love some advice! I've read a lot about it but can't...

short story: looking at an atom or a rope coil: something to extend the play space off a cage. long story: I bought Louise a 26x38x68 inches high cage and a cage that is 23x32 41 inches high guest cage for my friend's grey when he visits for socialization. Louise now spends all her time in the...

Hello everyone, About three and a half years ago, I was given the most amazing opportunity (because of these forums) to adopt my African Grey Henry. Henry is now 14 years old, and has only plucked once in his life during a time of distress many, many years ago (literally he plucked for one day...

Hi, I live in a house with two cats and 6 people (including myself) at the moment. I plan to get a bird in the near future, (probably around late January, early February of 2016), and my top options for my future bird is either an Indian Ringneck, or and African Grey. My dad seems much happier...
