Hello Jugernught and welcome to the family, glad you could join us and we look forward to hearing more about you and Yoda, betcha I know where you got that name! I want to hear more about this strange fascination with water and ice cubes, just what does he/she do that makes it unusual or funny, I am curious to know. Most all greys love to tear up anything and that includes wood, at least you won't have to buy toothpicks, just let him/her make them for you.:laugh: Like Joe suggested, offer the food in the mornings when he/she is more hungry and is more likely to take it from you. I would assume he/she will eat most anything from the bowl but is just hesitant to take it from your hand. Take a few minutes and read some of the many threads for lots of useful information and ask questions if you have any, we will do our best to get you some answers and help you in any way we can. If you have any pictures of Yoda you would like to share with us we would love to see him/her.

Hello Ginger and welcome to the family, so glad you could join us and we look forward to hearing more about you and Ozzy, what a cute name. Ozzy is your first grey but do you have any other birds? You have good company here as we all think our greys are hot stuff too, they are amazing creatures that enrich our lives so much it is almost unbelieveable. You will make friends here quickly as you won't find any friendlier people than right here on this forum, we all share a common bond, our greys and each and every one is willing to share what he/she knows. So Ozzy is learning to whistle, pretty soon it will be words and then phrases and of course he will mimic the phone ringing, microwave beeping and so forth, you won't know what is real and what is just him.:laugh: Take a few minutes to read thru the many threads for lots of useful information and do not hesitate to ask questions you may have. We will do our best to get you some answers and help you in any way we can. If you have some pictures of Ozzy you would like to share with us we would love to see him.

Yes I like the greys very much and you do very nice work and I am sure you enjoy it too, thanks for sharing it with us.

And we are forever grateful for that tidbit too, thanks so much Berna for that wonderful inspiration to rub bird poop between our fingers, my how good that feels. Go ahead Ronda and rub it on your skin and see if it helps, I dare ya :laugh: :laugh: :blink: :whistle: :dry: :side: :woohoo:

So glad she did good, My Josey does too on road trips. Thanks so much for updating us and glad it worked out for you.

Thanks for the update on Charlie, glad he is ok.

Well you have every right to be proud of your accomplishments and it does take lots of time with a rehomed grey but the rewards are worth it for sure. You can tell us all about them we will understand.

My money is on female but then I have been known to be wrong about stuff.:blink:

Ronda I can pm you my phone number and you can call me with good news if you want to rave to another grey lover, I was going to send it to you anyway, would love to hear from ya.

Chad does look a little rough doesn't he but he is having to adjust to the loss of his former owner but hopefully he will get over it and stop the plucking. Thanks for sharing a few pictures of your birds.

Ronda, you know I love hearing about Sweetheart and you have every right to be proud and beaming about your accomplishments with her, they were a long time coming but how sweet it is...................

Thanks for the link Greenwinged:)

Oh who cares who is a fan of who, if you have a good one share it Ronda, no one will take offense, this is an election year and anyone is fair game.:laugh: Take your best shot!!!!!!!!!!

You missed it again, Muse, but I bet tomorrow will be the day that you hear it clearly and there will be no mistaking what she said:P :laugh: :laugh:

Thanks Tiffani, Ronda, Melissa and Berna for some funny, LMAO, RAOTFLMAO and all that good stuff jokes, some I have heard before but I laughed again just the same.:laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

Thanks for sharing that with us, Tiffani, you do have a funny girl, maybe she was hinting it was bedtime!!:laugh:

I'm still going with female, can't wait to find out:P

How in the world did we get around to discussing people poop, this is a bird forum and we are dealing with bird poop, leave the people poop to Ronda, she deals with it on a regular basis, just kidding Ronda, you poor dear, you must have a strong constitution is all I can say.:blink: :whistle: :dry: :pinch:

Now that I have composed myself Tiffani here is another short one. While shopping for vacation clothes, my husband and I passed a display of bathing suits. It had been at least ten years and twenty pounds since I had even considered buying a bathing suit, so I sought my husband's advice. "What do you think?" I asked. "Should I get a bikini or an all-in-one?" "Better get a bikini," he replied. "You'd never get it all in one." He's still in intensive care.

Didn't sound too loud to me did it Berna, kind of a sweet chirp and he is cute.

A blonde calls Delta Airlines and asks, "Can you tell me how long it'll take to fly from San Francisco to New York City ?" The agent replies, "Just a minute.." "Thank you," the blonde says, and hangs up. :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

That was so cute Tari, that kind of chirping I can take and it didn't sound too loud to me, he is a sweet little bird and thanks for sharing it with us.

All these new members getting new grey babies is just so sweet, it makes me want a baby, nah, not going there right now but we want to see them as soon as possible.
