Hi everyone, I would like to build a bird stand/play gym for my baby but I read that PVC is no good to use. Is this true?? because it is the easiest and cheapest way to build one. If anyone has any plans to build one they could send me that would be great. I would love a tree but they are really expensive right now but I might for my bday and xmas which is around the corner.

Hi everyone, so I have had Gonzo for less than a week and so we are still adjusting to each other. He is very sweet and tame and loves to be held. So this is our routine during the day, I wake up and get ready for work but instead of putting on my nice work clothes I put on my bird poop clothes and take him out for about an hour or how ever long he will stand. In the morning he tries to climb my head over and over again. I keep saying no and take him down before he even reaches the top of my head. Eventually after the 20 times of trying he stops and instead decided to play with my hair barrette. Is this the right thing to do? I will admit it can get frustrating but I keep my cool with him. He seems to be more cranky in the morning than in the evening and as he seems to get more irritated I put him back and he chows down on his food which makes him happy. When I come home from work he is like a different bird and cuddles me for about 2-3 hours before again getting agitated and wanting to go to bed. Is this a good routine for him? Another question I have is how do I get him to like my dog, my dog is curious about him but he growls at my dog and puffs up. Will this just take time? Is there anything I can do to help him adjust to my dog better? My dog is only 20 lbs not a big guy but very friendly. Any advice would be great.

Thank you everyone for your comments. Gonzo came home on Thursday this week, he loves to be held and pet. He is dark like the Timneh yet has the red Congo tail which I love. He is small because he is still pretty young I think he will get a little bigger.

Hi everyone, I am new here and about to be owned by an african grey hybrid. The baby is 13 weeks old and still weaning. My biggest decision right now is which cage do buy??? How big should it be, I know the bigger the better but everywhere read tells me something different. What type of cages do you guys have? and how big are they? Thank you for any advice.
