Congratulations, you have made a great choice Please keep us up to date if you find one.

Not alot you can do really, just ignore him, one of my greys, coco constantly delights from chucking food everywhere :laugh:

HI & , please consider all your options before re homing as this can have great psychological consequences for him.Im sure with time & patience he will bond with another family member.

Hi Katie & , if you do a search on biting in the African grey forum you will be able to read through previous topics discussed on biting.

Hi Tess & , How wonderful that you have given Zulu a forever home,thanks for sharing his story with us & good luck with him.

Thanks for the reminder Birdgranna Here is a link on aspergillosis if anyone is unsure. http://www.greyforums.net/forums/bird-food/29553-aspergillosis.html#29631

We'd love some pictures Laurie especially if there messy !!

We sure would Judy

Yep keep trying, i have a rescue at the moment who has never seen a fruit or vegtable in his life,i still put them in his food bowl everyday,he picks them up & chucks them, so the day will come when he is tempted

it;s not too bad hilary ! three live in the birdroom at present & my latest rescue Soldier is in the living room so i do have one cage ( for the time being ) good luck on your cage purchase, be sure to keep us updated.

{Feel-good-0002006E} karma Toni you have us all in fits {Feel-good-0002006E}

suns out here in the UK but chilly {Feel-bad-000200BC} 2.10pm afternoon, the day is flying by, wish i was nearer the times of you guys

hi Hilary, i had a cage like Judy has they are cool cages & very roomy for a grey, shame you was not in the UK it's sitting in my garage !! i removed my cages before xmas & am fortunate my greys live in their own room , no more cage cleaning

AS the the other members have said, clipping the claws shouldn't be necessary ,make sure there is an array of different textured perches available for your grey.

Hi & The others have given great advice, try the ideas they have given you.Have you tried getting Gomez to step up on to a perch ? He may prefer stepping on to a perch from his cage opposed to a human hand.

Hi Heather &

Hi Hilary, 1= playtop v dome, personally i prefer playtops, gives additional play area but it is personal preference. 2= Corner v rectangle, rectangle cages seem to have a larger width than corner,personally i would but a cage that has a greater width than height. Always go for the biggest cage you can afford for your grey.Here is a link for other members cages & you can see how they are set up http://www.greyforums.net/forums/african-grey/11611-post-pictures-of-your-cage.html#11611

I echo everything Judy has said. Here is a previous topic on bird poop which has a good link regarding the changes in birds poop,& what to look for. http://www.greyforums.net/forums/bird-food/30809-your-birds-poop.html#31852

Thanks for the update,I cant imagine how much you miss Adam ,when is he due home ? lets pray god will keep him safe.You should be a VPMM
