Hi everyone! First of all, thank you for this group….i definitely need some advice! I recently adopted a beautiful African grey parrot because the owner was moving and not able to take her with. She is about 18 years old and I have known her since she was a hatchling but I never owned a bird or handled one and I’m worried I won’t know what she’s trying to tell me sometimes. I attached a video of her here…what concerns me is the noise she is making and the way she is just sitting on the top of the cage all crouched down. I have in the past seen eggs in her cage and was told by a local bird shop owner that this would mean she needs more calcium in her diet. First, is that what she looks like she’s doing? Second, what is best for calcium? Also, is there anything more serious I may need to be concerned about/have her seen at a vet for?? I appreciate any advice more than you all know! Thank you!!
