Well i only know 4 lines Siobhan :laugh: I believe I can fly I believe I can touch the sky I think about it every night and day Spread my wings and fly away

Mary it was just a picture that was captured when Freddie was a baby getting ready to take flight, it's one of my favourites

Well im afraid it will have to get on your nerves john The majority of babies like to scratch in the bottom of the cage it is natural for them,most grow out of it eventually here is a link to regards playing with toys.. http://www.greyforums.net/forums/the-nursery/73105-teaching-your-baby-to-play.html

Well he/she is a cutie, did you buy from a breeder ? They must have told you how old the baby is ? It would be at least 3 months if it is fully weaned ?

If you are trying to upload pictures from your photobucket you need to copy & past the IMG Code , the bottom one out of the 4 options

Congrats kukushka, im pleased you are happy & enjoying your nameless grey How old is he/she ?

Freddie

All greys have the ability to mimic speech but not all do,please enjoy your grey for everything he is & if speech comes just think of it as an added bonus, Greys have so much more to offer other than speech.

Hi Eric & welcome to the forum. Judy has offered great advice, given time & patience im sure you will gain Jasper's trust.We have wonderful members here who will support you in anyway we can

Hi Andy & welcome to the forum. There is no guarantee that Billy will talk, greys have the ability to mimic speech but not all do ! I wouldnt let this be your main concern, enjoy Billy for what he is & if speech comes then class it as a bonus

Some parrots, particularly African greys, shake their heads as if there's water in the ears. No one really knows why they do this, and it seems to be normal. If your bird does it excessively it may be a sign of an ear or nasal infection, im sure your baby is fine .

Well keep working on him, us ladies tend to get our own way in the end

It's not imperative that she goes onto a pellet diet, my four greys eat seed, fruit, Veggies, pulses & a whole host of things like rice, pasta etc... You will have to just keep offering them to her, try soaking them a little to soften them up, always offer new foods to your grey in the mornings when she is at her hungriest. Here is a link for offering new foods.. http://www.greyforums.net/forums/bird-food/53831-tips-for-getting-your-grey-to-eattry-new-foods.html Please have a good read through the various topics in this bird food room .

Im sure Tyco will not be able to resist much longer Pat

Sorry to hear that Di, as much as you want a grey please dont rush in with the next baby thats comes along, be sure your are happy with the single baby that's coming in as you dont have a choice of picking one,bear in mind all the health checks to look for,follow your head & not your heart

Well congrats , if she loves the palm nuts like mine she will do absolutely anything for one, restrict them to morning bribery & fingers crossed you have found the answer

Akdeniz1976 Welcome to the forum, we look forward to hearing more from you & Frank

:laugh: Im sure she will Tiff , but she also kind of quacks at the moment, my other half said we have brought a duck :pinch:

Great pictures Dave & i love the captions with them.The last two photos in flight are my favourites.Thanks for sharing Tee with us

Thanks for the update Ronda, it was great to see Sweetheart again she is looking good.Casper does sound like a duck, boy he is louder than my baby macaw :laugh: & he sure is a cutie, a right snuggle bug

Pat they love to forage & the way you presented the nuts was ideal, made them work for their nuts i have various nut toys hanging around for my greys, it keeps them occupied & they get a treat at the end of it.
