Oh Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, you are lucky I am a tenacious woman and love challenges!!!! You are always so funny!!!!!

I have a grey who loves water. I have not taken her out in the rain, Washington State's rain is not warm. When I spray her she turns round and round and flaps her wings so I know Ana Grey would love a warm Texas rain!

Hi Crossfit, I believe you instinctively already are doing the right things to ensure that Ipo will be moving into a loving and caring environment. What great love of birds you must have to take the time to visit and see that you learn everything about Ipo. She is a very lucky grey and her present owner a very loving parront. Please give Ipo's present owner best wishes from Greyforums. What a wonderful parront she is. I can't wait to hear how Ipo's arrival to your home goes!

Thanks guys!!!!! I was bored and it was fun to do! Greywings there are five macaws in the song!!!! :laugh:

Hope Harvey has learned is lesson and is now being a good boy, Jill!

Can't wait to see what goodies Griffin gets for Christmas. I wish I was handy and could build things. Good luck with the playgym! Can't wait to see it.

I'm so sorry that Moe passed away. You must be so devastated. I am so very sorry.

You have a low powered 250 watts microwave. Or you are just whacked!!!!!

Great pictures Julie!!!!

Breeders socialize their baby greys differently I suppose. My breeder handled her baby greys all the time so when I brought Ana Grey home I was told to cuddle her and talk to her calmly. That greys were flock animals and that I was her new flock so I should interact with her a lot. Did your breeder handle your grey much and socialize him? If not than sitting by his cage and talking to him and handing him treats is certainly a great way to start. Can't wait to hear more about Griffin.

morning porridge???? Microwave Pizza????

Delma, what lovely pictures of your sweet baby Georgie. Can't wait to hear more about him and how he settles in.

I have travel cages in my office and in my living room that I use to cage my birds if unexpected guests arrive. Pat, TycosMom has mentioned the pillow cases before and so I have those readily available also. Great post Julie! We can never be too cautious.<br><br>Post edited by: luvparrots, at: 2009/12/10 19:51

That certainly is Biscotti's color!!! What a sweet picture!

Very nice looking playstand you dad made zzzelama. Your fids are very lucky!

Hi ZippityV, congrats and karma to you for providing a home for an older grey. Just take things slow and let the grey adjust to his new surroundings and home. Let him settle in and once he is calm just open the door and let him come out on his own. Talk to him quietly and calmly and let him get use to you as his new parront. I think its wonderful that you can hopefully get more information about him from his groomer. Good luck and please keep us posted.

I have a re-homed older male Eclectus that joined my family in May, 2009. He spent many years in a pet store and is a plucker and screamer. He has stopped screaming and is not plucking as much. He is usually a sweet quiet guy. A couple of months ago he became aggressive and started attacking me (I live alone) and my young grey. Dave007, Dr. Flock, helped me tremendously. He explained that Sully was hormonal and that I should protect my young grey and myself from my aggressive eclectus and basically let him cool off. Sully is now my cute guy once again for the time being anyway. There is a thread about this in the Other Bird Room and Dr. Flock, 007Dave is in the Health Room. As far as I'm concerned when it comes to problems with your greys or other birds, he's the man.

This is such a sweet and wonderful thread, Robin. Karma for the heartwarming pictures it invisions!

Don't be afraid Bernie Here is a microphone for you!!!!
