  1. I think it looks pretty cool too:) But i havent tried it.
  2. I FOUND ALL THESE ON VARIOUS SITES, JUST THOUGHT ID SHARE. SOME MAY NOT BE FOR AFRICAN GREYS (the durability and size) 1) Take some sisal rope, twist it up so it forms a circle, use tape to unite the two sides, and take twine and cover up all the tape, use the twine to put beads or a bell at the top, for a little toy. 2)Use rawhide sandal (100% natural rawhide, dont use colored ones) and add a twine loop at the top, put strings with beads on them. Rawhide is very durable,and a fun toy for birds. 3) Break some cuttlebone into little pieces, get ahole in the middle, and put string with colorful beads in between about 6 or 8 cuttlebone pieces. Clip or Tie to the top or side of the cage, birds LOVE This. 4) For some fun foot toys, take a thin or thick smooth stick, and drill holes into wooden shapes, put them on the stick, scatter them around the bottom of your cage. 5)Get a cotton pair of gloves, Natural (With no dye) and put a peanut, or snack at the end of each finger, birds will love to find them. 6)Saw off about 1/2 of a coconut, clean out the inside, drill a hole in it and add string/rope and beads, some cuttlebone and fun stuff. 7)Some macaw sites say this is a "Must have" for macaw and large bird owners. Go the used book store, and get a novel and drill a hole in it, tie a string and up to the top of the cage, it gets messy, but its a favorite! 8)Take an egg carton, put string in it (make a hole with a hole puncher) and waahhhla a fun chewing toy! 9)A safe edible toy is taking pasta and putting it on string (uncooked pasta) and safe string.. hang it up and they have fun for hours eating the crunchy pasta. ENJOY

    New baby

    Hello and welcome! Congrats on your new baby grey:) You will have ALOT OF FUN! Please share pictures heehee, wed love to see! -Chelsie
  4. So u decided on annabella? Cute. I have a habit of calling her Harrison tho!! I LOVE HER NEW PIX, shes so beautiful :side: ANNND WOW you are right, she is MUCh lighter than Otis!
  5. Soooo, a few days ago I took Otis in to get his wings clipped because he was Constantly flying into things and getting off his perch to fly on the couch...:laugh: It was cute and funny at times but his flying ability needed to go haha. . . so meeeannn little mommy :evil: took him to get them clipped.. . . They came out SOOOOO choppy:dry: and now he looks like a little kid with a bad crooked HAIRCUT!! annnnnd even worse than his silly little hairdoo, he STILL flies.. its not as bad as before, but he still can make it about 6 feet away.. Whenever I get my cockatiels wings done they are beautifully trimmed and he cant fly at all so any idea on what to do with Mr Otis? Should I get them redone (even tho they are pretty short ) Or what? I really am alittle nervous about him flying, I am scared he'l run into the window and get hurt HELP thanks
  6. Haha I really dont know what they are called? But I am wanting one of those signature type things that have pics, etc on it. Does anyone know what im talking about lol? :unsure: Anyways, How do you guys make those? thanks for the help haha :cheer:
  7. Thank you guys I have looked around and am just amazed at how many beautiful african greys n their loving owners there are :side: I have had Otis for only a few weeks, I have wanted an african grey for what seemed like FOREVER. Now that I have him(or her hah) I couldnt imagine life without him, they are just so loving and enjoyable, not to mention SMART (too smart:pinch: at times) I do have one cockatiel too :cheer: I will share some more pics of him as I take them. Thank you all <3
  8. Sophiaaaaa :cheer: or gabby, its kinda growen on me
  9. Yeah 3 times a day sounds about right. A while ago when I got my cockatiel he was 4 months old and completely wild. It only took about a week or two for him to be wanting to step up on our fingers Good luck, it will all come with time
  10. Heyyy Im new here and my names Chelsie I have one baby african grey (5 months old) named Otis ;] Thanks
