lovemyGreys

They are both nice cages & good sizes ,it's a personal choice really as to where you have the space to fit either one

He looks wonderful, i love the ones with his big full crop Thanks for sharing him.

Congratulations Granny :laugh: Good choice in letting Mum & Dad feed them But if you had to Siobhan you could

Good luck Patrick, i hope all goes well for you,Saturday is not too far off.Please let us know how it goes.

Spray it harder I have 4 greys who get soaked to the skin using a spray bottle

Di the graze doesnt look to bad,they do tend to climb aroung their cages & can fall if they loose their footing,im sure monty will heal very quickly.

{Feel-good-0002006E} Nice one Mel , i would watch out for any retaliations by Gary

Mel my two boys spoke around 5 months,but as your aware it can be from as early as 4 months upwards but this is not so common,6 months onwards really.Every grey will vary & there is no guarantee they will mimic speech. The longest sentence mine can string together is.. give us a kiss or what ya doing :silly:

Yes i have four that love to make birdy soup I change their water bowls 3/4 times a day,fresh clean water is paramount to them

Yes they do look & feel softer after a good soak,just like us humans

That's great news,relax now & enjoy bobby,it just needed a little time for him to feel comfortable in his new home

No you did fine,they need to get wet at least twice a week to help maintain the feathers in good condition,bathing tends to be followed by a good preening session.If you get a spray bottle. then spray above Congo's head so the water falls down like droplets

Trust perhaps a spray bottle would have introduced him gently to bathing How did he react ?

Hi Betsy & Welcome to the forum,as Siobhan im unable to help either,hopefully we have members in the US who can help you I wish you luck in finding someone.

Me Jamie im the oldest,why would i lie Sounds as if your doing a great job there

I thought it was worth pointing this out to you,please ask your vet to do some blood tests to rule out any health issues .I hope Refund & joey both get a clean bill of health

Joey sure is cute Yes definately replace the cage ASAP the rust will pose a health risk if any is ingested by Joey.Does Joey have a history of plucking ? Do you know if joey has always had red feathers ? I dont like to alarm you but she red feather growth is a possible sign of PBFD an avian disease,just wanted to make you aware.Do you plan on a health check with your vet ?

Hi Katie & Welcome.It is really early days with Bobby give him time to settle in to his new home.The growling often is the only way they can show us they are nervous & scared.Talk to him gently & reassure him,im sure he will settle.Any problems you have please just ask us & we will help you all we can.

Yes i have to go with Baxtersmom Toni, i like Delilah & Dylan too

Julie i appreciate the stress you must be under & believe me Webster will pick up on that,as hard as it will be please ignore him when he does this piercing whistle,he is trying to get a reaction from you,if you are responding by being angry he will continue to do it because he is getting the desired reaction,your attention.If you need to let off some steam just call on us & we will support you the best we can

Great picture,i think the majority of greys would love a pizza crust to munch on, Yogi certainly looks to be enjoying hers,only in moderation tho

Julie Welcome to the forum.Please try not to give up on Webster,he has already had a very traumatic life form what you say.you have said it yourself he will be shattered to loose you.Does he only do this at meal times ? how does he act towards your nephew at other times ? Does he only accept females ? A little more info would help As for the piercing whistle, is it only when your out of the room ? Do you react to him when he does it ? Ignore the whistle,dont react in any way at all,dont give him any attention until it stops,when he has stopped then praise him,tell him what a good boy he is etc..He has to learn that making this whistle will not get him your attention,it will take time & patience but please try to hang in there
