congo african grey

Hi All -- Glad to be apart of this community. I recently lost my Congo Grey after having been through most of my life with her. The past 26 years were a joy to have with Cookie. I guess I'm looking for a place to both share my experiences of birdie companionship, as well as grieve over her...

i'm a new big-bird owner, having only cockatiels and budgies in the past. I recently got a baby female CAG. I'm starting to get worried by how much she is ''cleaning'' herself and dislikes me, even though i've been patient, offered treats, and tried to bond with her. I don't know what i'm doing...

Hi! I’ve been wanting to introduce some vitamins into my CAG and GCC’s diet, Romeo (CAG) gets fresh veggies, occasional fruit, some safflower seed mix (no peanuts or sunflower) and Lefeber pellets and ZuPreem natural pellets. And my extremely picky girl Tokyo gets her safflower seed mix (no...

Hi thank y’all for the warm welcome on my first thread here! I was asked for pictures so here they are! ~ Romeo my 2 year old CAG Tokyo my 1 year old GCC

Hi, I'm the wife and my husband and I will be the ones inheriting my father in law's CAG. His name is Snickers. He originally belonged to my husband's grandmother, and my husband rehabilitated him from being pretty much insane. When I met Snickers, he had a penchant for biting, but hubby asked...

My Congo African Grey is now about 12 or 13 weeks (I only know that she was born in February but not the exact day) and shes eating seeds and vegetables and shes healthy and had her vet checkup and we’re still waiting for her dna sexing results. I’m thinking girl because of physical...

...so I figured it was high time to bring on the good news! :D The lunacy is nigh unending in this crazy zoo of a household, but as of this very moment, things are looking super high. My bully breed mix, who has been suffering with one illness or another since she was rescued from the streets...

Hello, all! I joined as I had questions about off gassing a new furnace, but I'm staying as I'm always looking to expand my knowledge and meet fellow bird enthusiasts. I currently have a 3 year old sun conure (my photography muse as you can tell) named Alohi and a Congo African Grey named Zoey...

I am thoroughly owned by ChuChu, a Congo African grey parrot. She is the best parrot in the entire world, of course. I have had her since 1998, when she was just a few months old. Her favorite past times are destroying things, throwing food on the floor, watching her favorite shows on TV...

Hi Fellow Birdpeople, I'm a "mom"/caregiver of 2 CAGs: Zabar, 52, who was rehomed to me and my husband almost 3 years ago. He's blind in one eye, missing a couple of end toes and cannot fly, possibly due to pinioning? This February, Scarlett/Strawberry joined us. She was living in a closed down...

Hello everyone! Some of you may have seen my previous post about looking for a cage for Apollo, and how I mentioned that I would make a post about a vet as well. So here's the story: I have a congo african grey named Apollo. She's 20 years old, while I'm 19. She was my grandparents' bird and...

Hello! I'm relatively new to the bird scene and I need as much help as I can get. I'm looking for a new cage for my congo african grey, Apollo, and I need suggestions for cages/brands. I am only a college student, so I don't have $1000 dollars for a cage (especially considering I want to take...

We have had our Congo African Grey Henry for a few years now. He is 15 years old. Last year around this time, he started chewing his feathers for the first time. Just around his crop, and it didn't get bad until January when we thought he was dying and rushed him to the vet because he had...
