Greytness

I just want to scoop her up and give her lots of birdie kisses.

I'm so so sorry to hear about Jay, Maggie. I always appreciated his posts and applaud his tremendous will to live. Praying for comfort and peace as you learn to live life without him. Rest well, Jay. ❤️ You made a difference.

I put a teensy tiny dab on their food daily. They love it!

Such a sweet girl. Love the coloring of her wings!

He's right on schedule!

Hi! 6 months of age is about the age when they go through their first molt. It sounds like you're doing everything well! Misting and bathing will definitely help. You little one is super cute!

Welcome to Greyforums!

My eye is throbbing just looking at your pic. You're so darn lucky that he didn't snag your eyeball!

Love this!

My BHC is a soaker of dried fruits. His water becomes quite a colorful pool of squishy fruits and veggies.

Harley, my Panama Amazon, has strongly bonded with 2 of my sons. Both are now adults and living away from home, but whenever they're in town and can stop by for a visit, Harley goes completely nuts, dancing, singing, flying to them and calling for them. They truly don't forget their favorite people.

An unsalted nut would be a much better choice. Or bake some unsalted sweet potato chips in coconut oil for her. Greys really need the vitamin A, which sweet potatoes are loaded with.

Pretty girl! Looks like she eats nice and healthy, too!

Yep. Just as good the second time going down!

One of my greys, Sydney, will start the head bobbing, regurg and wing drooping any time I even walk into the room. I can't ever pick him up without him going into a full on display of affection towards me. He also loves to head bob and regurg with one of his bells. Maalik will be 7 in July and to date hasn't started all this nonsense. Fynn is 2, so we have a bit of time before spring fever hits him.

Here's me, parront to 3 greys, Maalik, Sydney and Fynn, plus 10 other birds.

Happy Hatch Day to Alfie! What a beautiful boy!

He's in full 'wanting to mate' mode. One of my greys does this every single time I either talk or hold him. I usually have to redirect him until he cools off

Hughie is looking at you like, 'Really?'

The freeze dried fruits and veggies can be returned to it's original state by adding tiny amounts of liquid. It's much different from dehydrated fruits and veggies, even in its retention of nutrients (97%)

This virus is no joke. So sorry to hear that it slammed you and your wife down. Glad you're both on the upswing now!

I'm still freeze drying organic fruit and veggies goodies with my company: Bodacious Birdie Bites. Please let me know if I can help!

Very well said, Kevin.

I have 3 greys! Two get along as long as there are bars between them. If they're together outside their cages one will taunt the other while the other one tells him 'NO!' The third grey is a rescue that doesn't directly interact with any of our greys. All 3 teach each other sayings and actual behaviors. For example, Maalik knows how to swing himself on one of his perches. Fynn has been watching him do it for quite some time before he learned how to swing himself. Now they enjoy swinging together while simultaneously ringing the three hanging stainless steel bells. It's super cute to watch!
