Thanks, BMustee. I think that that was the answer that I was looking for. I must say that before I even knew that a forum specifically for people who own AGs existed, I would just do a bunch of research online. My bf who frequents a forum on cars, decided to research for a forum on AGs and that's what brought me to here (he's more of a forum reader than poster, which is why I decided to register). So far, everybody on here seems really nice and helpful. I'm hoping that everyone on here will continue to give such support to my new life with Isley.

Hello everyone! I haven't properly introduced myself to this forum yet . . . I have a 4 month old CAG that I just bought this past Saturday. His name is Isley (pronounced just like my username). So far everything has been good except that he's gotten a bit "clingy" lately and his once cute "eh eh" sound has turn into a loud "EH EH" screechfest. Don't get me wrong here, my bf and I both love Isley but we just wished that he would turn down the volume a bit (to not disturb our apartment neighbors). I mean, we give him plenty of attention but now we feel that he may be getting a little bit "spoiled" if you know what I mean. Sometimes he is quiet when he's eating, grooming himself or left alone but if he knows that we're in the room, he does his "EH EH". Sorry if I said too much here, I didn't know what else to say.

Thanks for the great advice you guys. I think I know what to do now. Obviously my bird's life is more important than throwing away a couple of good household cleaners.

Hi everyone, please excuse me, I'm new here . . . I just recently bought a beautiful baby African Grey and I'm currently doing my best to adjust my lifestyle to meet his needs. He's caged in my living room and when I need to clean the table or windows (typical household stuff), I usually use Method brand household cleaners because they're supposed to be safe for the environment, kids, and animals, etc. Are they ok to use in the same room as my African Grey? My living room and dining room are fairly large and I won't spray the stuff anywhere near his cage. I just want to make sure if it's ok to use the stuff if it's from a safe distance away from his cage. Like if I were to clean the windows all the way on the opposite side of where his cage lies in the living room or if I were to clean the dining room (which is all the way on the opposite side of where he is in the living room but connected to the kitchen). Thanks if anyone can help. I just hate to toss away some good cleaners that are still nearly full without making sure if they're safe for my baby. I'm trying to be very cautious about anything that has some type of chemical and emits some type of fragrance.
