Wow Tiffany, what a great week you have been enjoying. Congratulations on Murphy already talking. He must be very smart!!! Can't wait to hear about his arrival home and see some pictures once he has settled in!!!

Hi Kathy, karma to you for taking in an older grey. Sounds like Ziggy has had quite a life. Can't wait to see some pictures if you have any to share. Welcome to the family.

Hi pughster. If you have any pictures of your grey we would like to see them. Welcome to the family.

I have both a carrier I take my grey out in or I use a harness. It all depends on where I am going or how long we will be outside. Can't wait to see some pictures of Jesse and your other birds if you still have them.

During the day, I just step up Ana Grey and put her back. At night she just goes back in on her own at about 9:00 pm. She has been my companion since she was weaned which made it easier.

Congratulations on your decision, Shannon. There is a thread here called BODY LANGUAGE MOST FREQUENTLY SEEN written by Dave007. I believe it would be very helpful in helping you understand your new grey's body language. Dave is one of the best. Can't wait to see some pictures of your new grey. What is his name?

Mark glad to hear that Bogart is more relax around you. He is a handsome grey and I believe you two are on the way to a long and fulfilling companionship. Can't wait to hear more of your progress!!!

I don't know Dave, we are going to have to get you a day job or something!!!!! Something to keep that mind of yours busy!!! I'm really worried about you!!!! {Feel-good-0002006E}<br><br>Post edited by: luvparrots, at: 2009/04/27 01:42

Congratulations Sheila, sounds like Charlie trusts you to no end. Great bonding going there!! Even a looking guy needs a pedicure once in awhile!!!!

Hi Dana, I am so jealous you have the two birds I want. I already have my grey but I would love to have a female Eclectus. I just have to find one!!!! Rhett and Applejax, love their names, are both very handsome. Can't wait to hear more about them. Welcome to the family!!!!

Hi Dana, welcome to the family. You really should go to the Welcome Room so everyone has a chance to meet and say hi to you. What is your grey's name and age?

SZ looks so happy in his new cage. Look at him stretch as of to say, "Wow, I can even stretch in here." Great cage for your marvelous new companion!!!! Good job, Summer!!!!

Wow, you must have had a great time at the Columbus Zoo. I bet that was a blast listening to the alarm, siren and horn sounds the greys were making. Thanks for sharing your pictures with us!!

Hi haiden, I have an 8 year old grandson who is very responsible and well behaved. His mother and I told him what we expected of him with regard to being introduced to my grey and he listened and because he loves animals did exactly what we asked him to do. He can step up Ana Grey and pet her. He never goes to her without first asking me. I never leave them alone. We explained to him how Ana Grey could bite if afraid or frightened. He understands and is very respectful of her. He understands that Ana Grey is an animal and he is responsible to care for her and protect her. He loves the responsibility. Haiden, you know your child best and that is the criteria you should use in choosing whether a bird is right for your family. As for the cats. My grandson owns a cat which was born in a barn and learned to hunt and stalk prey. I would never have Ana Grey and LC (little cat) in the same room together. I know my animals and children/grandchild. Only you can decide what works for your family. Good luck with your decision and welcome to the family!!

So happy that Verde is so comfortable with you MrsB. He is beautiful!!!

Hi Ther, from your Avatar it is easy to see that Jesse is a fine looking CAG. You certainly have a variety of FIDs in your flock. I look forwarding to hearing about them in the Other Bird Room and of course seeing pictures. Welcome to the family!
