He is lovely Siobhan, my friend has four caiques they are wonderful little birds, full of character.What next with the new video cam ?

Good news Christoph.

if you are going to feed anything with yoghurt then feed only in moderation as a special treat.I know kaytee do a yoghurt dip treat. Keep at the bean mix,i buy a prepared mix.Certain beans have the potential to be toxic to birds such as,pinto,soy,kidney,lima,black & fava,is is advised to cook these beans first, others soak them for 24 hours. Pellets arent neccessary but do meet the needs of greys.mine do not eat pellets,but have a human grade seed mix,fruit.soaked pulses,sprouted seeds & veg, so i know that i am meeting their dietry requirements. i have includeed some links for you to have aread through.. http://www.greyforums.net/forums/bird-food/53831-tips-for-getting-your-grey-to-eattry-new-foods.html http://www.greyforums.net/forums/bird-food/59809-complete-veggiefruit-list.html http://www.greyforums.net/forums/bird-food/28994-do-you-sprout-.html#71335

I'm sorry to hear of your loss. Pick a bird for you, not for your grey, obviously you will have to introduce them slowly over time but i have included a link for you on that..your grey is use to the company of another bird so i guess you may have problems with him,but it is early days,but if you really want another bird , then go for it. http://www.greyforums.net/component/option,com_joomlaboard/Itemid,27/func,view/catid,5/id,69501/

Lyric look's spoilt to me

Dave, i know your upset but you have to stay calm in situations like this. Get someone else to sneak a few pics on their mobile, don't you go & add fuel to the fire.contact the appropriate people so they can deal with it.

I'm so pleased for you Caroline, i know how much this has been such a traumatic experience not just for Charlie but for you to.I knew you would be strong, even on the low days, but you have nearly made it

Dave.. http://www.24parrot.com/Lighting-C168/ They have some arcadia kits on ebay too

Dave your first port of call should be the RSPCA..on the left hand side of their web page is loads of links.. They may well have had complaints in the past by members of the public if the living conditions & health of the birds are not acceptable .Ring them & voice your concerns ,They usually pay a surprise visit on the shop, but as you have voiced you views with the owners don't be surprised if they clean up their act up in the coming days.If you can get others to put a call in to the RSPCA also Dave i dont suppose you got any pic's on your mobile ? http://www.rspca.org.uk/ http://www.rspca-westhatch.co.uk/RSPCA%20LINKS.htm<br><br>Post edited by: lovemyGreys, at: 2008/04/08 21:01

nice ideas Mark,i buy the kids coloured wooden blocks & drill holes in them

Well done Dave,just mind cleo dont go for him that big beak will certainly do some damage to a canary

ok my 4 live in their own room,make your own mind up

Timnehs are smaller than Congos.

Yvette i think you will find this previous thread a few weeks back intresting .... http://www.greyforums.net/forums/african-grey/62964-help-with-charlie.html#63435

Thanks for the update. We knew Josie would take it all in her stride, but I'm pleased to hear Angie wasn't as unsettled as you had expected her to be.hopefully she will settle well in the new surroundings, from what you say things do look positive, Let's hope they both take to their new home

Yvette here is a link to a good site which has some great tips..... http://www.wikihow.com/Get-Rid-of-Fruit-Flies

Sounds as i you have a great routine going there Laurie.You have to find a happy medium that suits you.

Keep at it Mark, it will benefit Max in the long run

Greys do need at least 10 hours of sleep per night, but i know many dont get this.They will cat nap during the day.As judy said if your not ready to get her up, ignore her,she needs some kind of set routine to her sleep.

They also tend to be more clumsy, especially as babies.

Great news Lupa, I did have doubts about the first vet, im pleased you looked elsewhere & Shani has come through her ver visit unscathed ! She will forgive you

see how you feel on sunday
