It's more whistling very loudly as she seems to be a whistly bird rather than talky lol. It just seems like shè whistles as much as a normal chatty talky grey does and it gets almost to a point of being unbearable lol and I love her so much I can't bear to rehome her and she get depressed and start plucking.

I'd like to add that when we got her, her chest was bald from either plucking from stress or from not being washed properly but now she is now growing feathers back and is getting back to how she should be. Although she is patchy from where I think she has pulled out the feather out completely I don't think that area will grow back at all but compared to how we got her it's a massive improvement.

It's not screeching or screamong as such. Imagine putting ur fingers in your mouth and whistling as Loud as u can. We knew greys can be noisy but I've never come across one that can be this noisy as often as ruby is lol. I wasn't planning on making her an aviary and just dumping her out there.. no way. I would still bring her in/go out and spend time with her as often as I do now. I was just thinking that she would like to be outside and hear new sounds, animals etc and there would be more for her to hear/see as well. People do have aviaries for their greys and they are happy and healthy.

Hi. Thanks for the replies. The reason I'm asking about an aviary and possible aviary friends is because she is obviously very noisy (noisier than we had anticipated and can bear in the house) lol. I can't stand the thought of selling her so would rather build an aviary and give her some other feathered friends. I would build her an area/box to shelter from the wind etc but wanted to double check if she would be ok outside now.

Hi all. My name is joe and my TAG is called ruby. She is 16 months old. When I got her she has a partly plucked belly as I believe the last owners didn't look after her correctly. We have had her roughly since October 2014. Mainly a whistler/sound bird but does say Hello and does try to speak a few different sentences But is very muffled and difficult to make out. I plan to make her am aviary very soon and plan to get her some friends to chill with in the garden.

Hi everyone. I want to build an aviary for my grey Ruby. But have a couple of questions. 1: I live in the UK and I was wondering what kind of temperatures can they live in? It's quite cold at around 5-10 atm. Also what other birds could I keep with her? Love birds, finches etc? Any feedback would be appreciated. Thanks ks.
