Josey hasn't tried those but they should go over well, anything else you got and tried on him?

Wow these are some awesome conversations you all are having with your greys, Josey and I have nothing to compare to these but it is wonderful to hear what is going on in other households with their beloved greys. Thanks for starting this thread Dan.

You will see subtle changes in her behavior as she gets older, they don't always stay the same so be prepared for changes in how she acts and reacts to things. A little change like a different window to look out opens other possibilities for things to peak her interest so just allow her personality to develop and go where they may. There is another whole different world outside that window and she finds it interesting at the moment so don't feel too bad about losing family meal time together, you can make it up in other ways.

Oh yeah nutri-berries, yes they are a favorite with most birds but alas Josey does not care for them, so what else did you get?

Now thats an interesting term for a wet bird, "soggy", not drenched, soaked or dripping wet but soggy, I love it.:cheer: :lol: B)

I probably have Summer but with so many members and threads sometimes it is hard to keep up with what is going on with each one, I will check it out though, thanks for replying and letting me know.

I know you three will have a lovely time and be sure to share some pics of them on their outings having fun.

I am on pins and needles waiting to hear all about it:whistle: B)

Summer when you get the chance tell us some more about this grey you just got and did you keep the name Zulu?

""""Try contacting HARRISIONS, they will send samples to you free, tell them you want to try the fine size, that is what Mesa eats. They are really small and maybe that will encourage the baby to eat them."""" Josey eats the fine also, I find that she wastes less with it but do keep them available in the cage for you never know when she might try them.

Josey is also intrigued whenever I play a video of someone else's bird talking or making calls and sounds especially if its another grey, thanks for sharing that with us.

Kath you take such wonderful pictures, I love the way you have the background behind Adaya. She is lovely when she is wet, thanks for sharing her with us.

Thanks for that link, I bookmarked it for later so I can try some of those recipes.

Nobody can train a husband, haven't you figured that out yet:whistle: :blink: :side: :laugh:

vietnow wrote: You need to give him more time, greys are very cautious creatures and do not accept change easily so take it slowly. Sometimes they welcome scratches and sometimes not, you have to be respectful of his wishes and Pat is right about most of them usually are more receptive of it at night before going to bed. The important thing is to learn to read his body language so you will see the signs of biting and other behaviors so you can avoid getting bitten, but patience is key to developing a good relationship with your grey also.

I live in the USA so I can be of no help to you but keep looking for they are out there, you just have to find them, good luck to you.

Hello Chikki, that is an adorable name for a grey but it is an adorable grey so what can I say but I love it. Yes it will seem like it will never get here but it will so be patient and please post more pictures of Chikki when you get more and please also post some pictures of your conservatory when you get it finished, I want to see it.

Well Devon I am impressed that you are very serious about taking in Sundance and if that is what you want then I hope it works out for you. But be very sure this IS what you want because that is the last think this grey needs is to end up in another home. You will find lots of helpful information here on our site about rescued greys, we have a rescue room so browse thru that one thoroughly, and we are here to help you with any problems you may have and you will have problems as life is full of them. Please keep us informed and let us know how the next visit goes with Sundance.

Look at it this way Anna, you have only had him three weeks, the honeymoon phase is over and he is starting to show a little more of his personality and he may be showing a preference for one of you over the other, this is not unusual for greys. You will find lots of useful information in our many threads so do read thru them at your leisure and do ask questions you may have and we will help you in any way we can. We love pictures here so if you have some of your grey you would share with us we would apreciate it very much. BTW, what is his name?

Give him more of the things you know he loves to eat and go thru the bird food room for ideas for other things.

Thats great news Dawn and you are doing so well with him, just sit back and relax and things will fall into place.

Glad to hear it Caroline, hope you don't see any more, this is wonderful how we are solving each other's problems!

I'm at work and didn't get to see it all but that is so cute and that is their way of helping, thanks for sharing that with us.

There are lots of websites that carry the adventure pack, try another one and see if you are successful.
