Hello to all!
Firstly I'll introduce myself. I'm Helen and I live in Portsmouth, England with my partner and our African Grey 'Bobby.'
We got given him about 7 months ago from a couple who had split up. He would step up on his previous owners hand....but only when he was off his cage on the floor. He seems fairly comfortable around me; he will put his head down so i can stroke him and will throw his food up!! Nice! But I can only assume thats a good thing?! However, he will often bite me, really hard, depending on his mood.He really fluffs himself up and goes out of his way to get me; I try not to give a reaction.Then the next minute he wants me to stroke him! He won't step up for me though so i'm a bit stuck what to do next! Bobby won't bite my partner, he seems quite timmid around him. We're not really sure where to go from here. Any ideas? He hasn't been DNA tested, so could be a girl!! He's 7 years old and has always been treated well from what we can gather.
Many Thanks,
Helen
