Excellent update on Grey Bird. I am thrilled for your great progress. Can't wait to see some pictures and hear more about your and Grey Bird's friendship. Congratulations!
Hi Speedygo, I would love to see some pictures of your greys. Especially, the Cameron Grey has me curious. Looking forward to hearing more about your feathered gang. Welcome to the Grey Family.
Welcome to you and Mardy Grey. I am looking forward to following the two of you in your new Grey Adventures. Welcome to the Grey Family. Certainly sounds like Mardy is getting you into line/gear quickly (smile).
Thank you for the great introduction. Winston sounds like a very lucky guy to have found a prefect forever home. Looking forward to learning more about Winston. Welcome to the Grey family.
I have both a TAG (7) and a CAG (5). They do not interact. The CAG follows the TAG's lead as he came as a baby and she babied him. She is the boss he the follower. They are friends no more no less.
Howdy Bob and Krystal. Izzy is a cutie. Love those TAGs! Great looking pictures. Am looking forward to learning more about your grey and family. Welcome to the Grey family!
My greys are microchipped and have been since they were 4 months old. One is about 7-8 years old and the other 4-5 years old. They have never done anything to act like the chips bothered them in any way. If I take my greys to the avian vet the vet checks them (chips) for me to see if they are in place. I have my greys registered and if they are ever lost or fly away and taken to an avian vet/vet they can be checked for chipping and ownership. It gives me great peace of mind.
Hey Lurker, congrats on your new grey. Rex sounds like he is getting you in line without a problem.(smile) Looking forward to learning more about Rex and watching the two of you grow together. Welcome to the Grey family!
I have a pellet bowl in each of my greys cages, ONLY because I live alone, am older and if anything should happen to me, my parrots would have a couple of days with "extra" food until someone stopped by, hopefully. My CAG, Sterling Gris, only eats some of his if he does not like dinner. My TAG, Ana Grey, doesn't touch hers at all.
My TAG, Ana Grey, 7, and my CAG, Sterling Gris, 5, have never been clipped (Sterling as lightly sniped when I got him but could still fly). Neither is aggressive and never has been so being flight I don't believe as anything to do with it. Perhaps someone, unbeknownst to you, mistreated Storm a little.
I would be calm and try to keep things "normal" in hopes Storm will revert back to his sweet self. Good luck.
TODAY ANA GREY IS SEVEN (7) YEARS OLD!
How time flies in the Grey Forums Forum. I just realized that Ana Grey has turned 7 years old. She is a real lady now.
Ana Grey has always been a mellow grey No drama or biting or any kind of ill actions. She is truly a lady.
The only thing she refusals to do is come when I call, but hey if that is the worst thing she does I am impressed. She does have a mind of her own and has never been fearful of people or loud noises or sounds. She truly is a prefect grey and for that I will be forever grateful.
HAPPY HATCH DAY MY LADY. SPECIAL EATS COMING YOUR WAY.
When I first purchased each of my greys, I took each one to an avian vet so that the vet would know what my grey was like when healthy. Now I know that this avian vet has a record of my grey(s) so that if ever one is ill, this avian vet already knows my grey.
Leave the perch alone. Let your grey set the pace of using his perches. I have had my greys for years and I just put new things in and let my greys do their thing. They are calm and do not run from me or their things. They own their home and their things new and old. Relax and let everyone get to know each other and the stuff around.
As always Dave, you leave me speechless and feeling great. Have a wonderful day. Remember to kiss that beautiful wife of yours and be grateful she puts up with you. (smile)
Devin, first relax. Your grey is "getting even" with you for "abandoning" her. Or at least she feels that way. Relax and start anew. Treat her as you would normally and let her set the pace of your relationship. Talk to her and tell her what you are doing. Tell her when you leave the house and say hello when you return. Relax and enjoy your smart and intelligent friend. Give her a chance to "forgive you." Greys sense our emotions so relax and enjoy.
Hi Seth, welcome to the Grey family! I have an almost 8 year old TAG I have had since weaned. She is very friendly and can talk but limits herself to asking for food. "Want a nut". My CAG, I have had for about 5 years since he was weaned. He is a big talking and repeats oodles of words he hears. "Feed me, feed me I'm a starving birdie". "Open the door I want to come out." etc., etc. Enjoy your new grey. Give her a chance to get to know you and her new home. Enjoy!
