All sounds like good advice to me. From what I'm reading it sounds like patience is pretty key.

Thanks Judy. I've been browsing the forums and have learned alot already. Great resource. Sound sto me like I need to pick up a few things to try and feed Jasper as special treats and toys to play with as well. Are there any fruits or veggies that are not good for a bird, or a grey particularly? In addition, what are some foods that almost all of them seem to like the most? Again, thanks for the response and kind words, Eric

My wife and partner for the past 4 years passed away last August. She had a grey named Jasper (6 years old I believe) who i still have and care for. I have read that grey's can sometimes only "latch on" or like one person for their entire lives. I have been giving Jasper much more attention lately and trying to get him to stop trying to bite me (I have scars!). Some days are better than others. has anyone else gone through this and if so, what were your methods? I love the bird, he just doesn;t love me back much! I have read quite a bit just today and it looks like he may need even more attention and exercise than what he's been getting. It's hard to let him out of his cage for exercise cause he won't go on my hand to go back in without making me bleed first. Help Me! Eric
