Hello, I am from the Raleigh/Durham North Carolina area and am in the information gathering phase of a potential African Grey purchase. Does anyone have a recommendation on good breeders/Bird Shops in the Raleigh/Durham area or surrounding area? Thanks, --Mavus

Yeah I may have been a bit extreme in my hours, I would say 80% of the time I am home by 6:30pm. I would have to make it a point to get home and finish with work from there which lucky enough for me my job is well suited for. --Mavus

I guess here is the best place to ask my first question. My biggest concern is that I will not have enough time to spend with the the grey. The reason my parents had to get rid of their grey when I was 4 was because it was getting depressed for lack of attention. My job some times has me working some pretty long hours and I am currently the only person in my house. My daily routine usually has me leaving the house at 8:30am and getting home around 6pm, this can be as late 10pm on some nights (not too often). I also work some weekend days but that has me getting home around 2:30pm. I also enjoy playing golf on some weekend days and various after work activities from time to time. Would it be fair to the grey with this schedule? --Mavus

Hello, my name is Jesse. I recently purchased my first home and figured now is a good time to get a pet. I have been looking into getting a grey and look forward to learning what to do/not to do if I decide to purchase one. I grew up with dogs, cats, rabbits, and a few other various animals but have not had a bird around since I was about 4. Anyways I look forward to meeting some of you and your greys! --Mavus
