Very cool! How did you do the bowls?

Ooo, these are some great ideas. Any concern with wood play gyms and disinfecting them? I had been looking at "parrot towers" but am not sure. Scarlet, I did a search but didn't come up with much, do you have a direct link?

Thanks for the info!!

Hi Everyone, I am thinking of purchasing a playgym for my greys, but am having trouble finding good reviews on any. Does anyone LOVE their playgym, and thinks it's the best thing? Or does anyone wish they never bought their's? I have been intrigued since watching the DVD "captive foraging", and would prefer one to look something like the foraging tree in this DVD (lots of perches and places to climb to). Thanks! Debbie

Oops! Sorry! I decreased your karma! I didn't mean to, was just checking out what the "thumbs" meant. Hope you can forgive me. Anyway, no problem with the questions. Have you met a bird person who doesn't like talking about their birdies? I have had Nala since she was 10 weeks old. I now realize that was probably a little early for her to be fully weaned from the breeder, but didn't know enough at the time to ask more questions. I have known Rosie since she was about the same age, but was not her owner. I worked in a pet store, and hand fed her etc. When it came time for me to go back to school, Rosie was still at the pet store and didn't handle this very well. After being back at school for one week, Rosie chewed approx half her feathers overnight, and stopped eating. My boss called me and told me to come get her (she knew we were bonded). So that is how Rosie came into my life! Thanks for the information re: her dry skin. Yes I do have a humidifier but am paranoid that I am not keeping it clean enough!

Hello Everyone, I get to share my life with my two African Grey's, Nala (a 13 yr old TAG), and Rosie (a 5 yr old CAG). I love them sooooo much. I'm having a problem with Rosie shredding her feathers, so am trying Aloe Vera spray. It is so dry here in Calgary. It breaks my heart to see her rip at herself!

Hi There, I found my 100% Aloe Juice at the Health Food Store here in Calgary. I bought "George's" brand, and from what I hear it is available at many health stores. I'm not sure whether to water it down though. My vet said 15ml of Aloe to 500ml of water. This sounds like such a small amount though. Debbie
