They are fine with their cages, i can hear them playing etc... i think im the one with the problem :unsure: :laugh:

Thank you for sharing that with us, & it is a comfort to know that Alexandrea is back with her moma. Here is a link for Aspergillosis. http://www.greyforums.net/forums/bird-food/29553-aspergillosis.html#29631

Great advice from the other members, perhaps a phone call to the vet for some advice,If the nails had been cut to short they would have bleed, nails should be clipped on the very tips, taking care not to clip beyond the blood vessel that runs into the nail.Maybe your grey feels slightly strange with shorter nails.Invest in some cement perches, they are great for keeping the nails trimmed.

I always feel guilty if mine have to go in their cage's when i have to pop out, they have so much freedom & it's that look they give me

Oh gosh Joe, what are you going to buy now to satisfy your taste buds :laugh:

Thanks for the reminder.

Joe's a man on a mission

Thanks for that

:dry: :laugh:

Makena has given you some great advice. I would say make sure your baby is fully weaned before bringing him home,if you have never owned a grey before the hand feeding may be to much for you.Make sure you get some health guarantee with the bird,if he has been in a community aviary you dont know what diseases the other birds could be harbouring.Ask the breeder not to clip his flight feathers, he needs to learn to fly before you make a decision about clipping his wings.

:laugh: I have 8 but all hidden in places i can cover them up

just figuring out where i could have one

Hi Aslee & i look forward to heraing more from you.

Hi Mary & Robert & a Big look forward to hearing more from you,good luck with the new baby

Thanks for sharing that Milo Many people believe aloa can help birds who pluck.

Good luck joe 9.31 pm uk

If you pull your hand away and yell, then your parrot gets a reaction out of you and will try again to get the same reaction. They think it's a game, try & show no reaction to him,try to distract him when you can see that he's going to bite,you can gently wobble your hand if he is on you this works well for me.I also have a clicker ( like some people use for dog training! ) if mine go to nip i click on the clicker & say a firm No in a strong voice, the clicker distracts them. Some people use time out, if your parrot bites you simply return him to his cage for 5 minutes & walk away from him & say nothing.Then let him out as normal,back to the cage if he bites & again dont respond to him. just a few ideas im sure other members will be along later with their personal experiences.

Toni he is a cutie, they are lovely photos, thanks for posting them, i love to meet out members greys
