  1. I loved that!! Thanks for sharing it!
  2. So sorry for your loss! I don't know you at all but I know what it is to love a pet and the gut-wrenching grief that comes along when you lose one. Wish they could be with us forever!
  3. Love your pics of Pookie. Hope I can get my baby to use a harness.
  4. I love your pic, Denise. I wanted to get a harness too. What brand is that and did you have a difficult time getting on? How's Clinton liking it?
  5. 2birds, My breeder/bird store owner is located 5 hours away. It's hard to find baby Greys in my area. It's also hard to find someone I feel confident buying from. It's good you can go and visit. My first time seeing her is when I get to take her home.
  6. Oh, thanks so much! It'll be fun comparing notes about our babies. Is yours a Congo? Male or female? Have you got a name yet? See, I'm already starting!!! LOL
  7. Thanks for the pics. Looks and sounds like fun!
  8. I am blessed in so many ways! I'm doing all I can for us to have a good start together. My Persian cat just recently started having issues with his eye again. I'm taking him to the vet tomorrow which will probably result in eye surgery. He had surgery on his other eye a couple of years ago. I'm really stressed about it as it means a couple of days lost work and at least two weeks of intensive post care. The last time meant a corneal graft and I'm hoping I caught it early enough to avoid that this time. I worry so much when one of my animal babies are sick that I can't sleep or think of much else. I really stress out about it because I want to stay home from work to be with them but I can't. Even so, I'm thankful that the worst of this should be behind us before I go to bring Gabby home. I'd hate to bring her home when I'd be so stressed. I hope that our experience resembles the one you have with your TAG. I've always wanted a Congo but the Timneh came up for availability first. A lot of the research I've done suggests that the Timneh has less fear issues than the Congo and is a more relaxed bird. That sounds great to me (if that's the case), but I do like the Congo's bright red tail. What it all comes down to, for me, is the amount of companionship we can have together. I'm really looking forward to getting to know her.
  9. I am on pins and needles! I'm trying to prepare for her. I've been trying to find the perfect spot for her in my living room. I have a tiny house so I'm gonna have to move a couple of things out to make room for her cage. I've had the measuring tape out to make sure I leave enough space.
  10. Hi All! Just found this forum and it seems like a wonderful source of information for me. The conversations I've been reading lead me to believe that I can receive a lot of helpful information and opinions from the group. I'm very excited to finally be getting a Grey. I've wanted one for a very long time. I've owned cockatiels (still have one) and a Jenday conure. The conure loved me but was so jealous of my young daughter that she would viciously attack her. This was no fun for anybody and I could never let her out of her cage when my daughter was around. I always feared that this would happen with a Grey too, so I put off getting one. Now, it's years later. My daughter has become an adult and left the house and it feels like the time is right. Last weekend I put down a deposit on a female Timneh Grey. She was hatched on March 22nd and I hope to take possession of her the last of June. In the meantime I'm continuing to learn all I can. Here is a baby pic. Hoping to receive an updated one soon.
  11. Sounds like my kind of afternoon.
