Hi harmar, which african grey, CAG or TAG, is debatable. I prefer TAGs but we have members who have both and this debate has yet to be decided. If you ask me why I chose the TAG it's because they are smaller than a CAG and I love small things. They are both beautiful creatures. Please do read all about what a takes to care for a parrot. They are intelligent creatures and need much more care than a parakeet or canary. They need more space and much more cleaning up after along with loads of out of the cage time. So please do your reading before you make up your mind. They are a commitment, just like a child.
