sounds like you got your hands full too! yes, I have felt like on other boards some people feel like if you don't have a grey, then maybe getting one that needs a bit more love, effort and time is not a good idea. I understand that alot of homes for rehomes do not work. But not all. In my home, we have pets that have been dumped, abused and they have turned out to be wonderful additons to our family. Our sun conure has been quite a learning experiance for us. We I first got Yago..... we did alot of research and are giving him love and boundries. Kinda like work (I work with the adult mentally disabled) anyway, guess i am just trying to say in my rambling way........ welcome and keep us posted!

well, going by what he is saying........ it is yaaaaahgooooo. I under stand he is named for the aladdin parrot. as I am sitting here, he climbing around outside of his new, (gently used) huge cage chattering Yaaaahhhhgoooooo is a good bird over and over and over. LOL amazing that he could live 12 years in a small cage without toys other than one crappy old one with out going mad. yes, a quick trip to the store and he has more frigging toys and extras for changing them out. yes, spoiled.

thank you so much! I will be looking for it!

His name is Yago........ and he is a real treasure. We are working on the no biting thing. He will take treats from my hand and go in and out of his cage to hang out. Last night I had to leave and wanted him back in his cage. so I asked him if he wanted a grape and put it in his cage. he went in........ no stress! yeah! He also talks alot...... but alot of those are shut up, I am going to wring your neck, f--- you. but he has picked up " I am a pretty boy" interesting the things that he is stringing together. Love the burp and the nose blowing! Yago is so beautiful..... no feather plucking!

I have recently been adopted by a 12 year old grey that was in a bad situation living in a garage. We are learning alot together, In a week we have made alot of progress. Tell ya, he is a real stress reliever!:woohoo: <br><br>Post edited by: CeasarsDad, at: 2007/07/28 10:04
