Hey everyone, I hope someone can help me. two weeks ago I got an African Grey that is 21 yrs. old. The lady I got him from is not well and not able to spend enough time with him. He is so funny. He whistles and talks his face off. He won't let anyone put their hand in his cage without biting them. I understand he is protecting his home.
My questions are when they start to molt, how many and what size feathers come out? He scratches his head quite a bit and I've noticed baby gray feathers and two larger ones. Does this seem normal? He doesn't seem to be upset over the change in homes.
As far as his diet, she gave him Gourmet Seeds, fruit, fresh Veggies and some Pellets. He doesn't really care for the Pellets. He does like Bran Cereal tho. Does this seem like a nutritious diet to you? I only want the best for the Kita (Kee-tah), and as I said he seem so happy and climbing around his cage from toy to toy yacking the whole time.
If someone would like to give me some advice I would sure appreciate it. Thanks. All comments welcomed.
