Nice little site for info on many birds here is the congo http://www.avianweb.com/africangreyspecies.html http://www.avianweb.com/africangreys.htm Average bird weights http://www.avianweb.com/AverageBirdWeights.htm

Thought this might be of use as it does many types of birds http://www.avianweb.com/AverageBirdWeights.htm

just got my guys from tidy mix (seeds) to pretty bird had to add orange juice to make them eat it but going great so far! also they have veg and fruit most of it goes on the cage floor little swines!

many thanks i know the price of some of these is alot! those looked a good price to me. a quickie question/s when is the best time to weigh? am/pm (i`m thinking am?) and how many times a week (1?)

I have my cag kya with oz my hahns macaw in the same cage they cuddle up together but they have moments when they want time with me 1 on 1 but other than that it works well for us.

been looking in to this also are these ok? http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/MyWeigh-2500-g-bowl-scales-w-Bird-weighing-stand-scale-/160440725353?cmd=ViewItem&pt=UK_BOI_Electrical_Test_Measurement_Equipment_ET&hash=item255b032f69 or these http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Falconry-Bird-Scales-Logbook-Car-Warning-Sticker-5kg-/170499964821?cmd=ViewItem&pt=UK_SportingGoods_Hunting_ShootingSports_ET&hash=item27b296ff95 many thanks!

how much would you give?

this any good ? http://www.goodnessdirect.co.uk/cgi-local/frameset/detail/403123_Rice_Dream_With_Added_Calcium__1ltr.html

put the cage out side i think if it is dark out side Charlie won`t go far.

This is very good news glad to see Emma home! she just wanted a day out thats day trippers for you hehe

link to a site to find and report lost http://www.flealess.org/lostpets/quebec.html

more here Put fliers (preferably with picture) in all pet shops in your area Talk to pet shop personnel Put fliers (preferably with picture) in all Vet waiting rooms in your area Talk to Vet and personnel Put fliers on poles, etc. in surrounding area Put ad in classified section of newspaper Talk to mail carriers in your area, newspaper delivery people, meter readers, dog walkers, gardeners, etc. Set the bird's cage outside, with the door open, complete with fresh food and water. The cage is often a sense of security that the bird is seeking

have you put out fliers around your area? door to door and posters on trees ect? just an idea... offer a reward? seen it done here in the uk

Our thoughts are with you and we hope for a safe return!!

Took my Hahns macaw to the Avian vet today and kya my cag for the ride and i used a new place in Bedford (UK) called Scotts i must say i am very impressed and would recomend them 100% very clean and staff are polite and helpful. Here is the link for anyone in this area www.scottveterinaryclinic.co.uk hope this helps people!

what if they fly up and panic and it snatches? if you know what i mean? like a dog does on a lead. Over pulling to the max! this would worries me.

many thanks i`ll have a read and look at utube i know with greys slow is the way we are getting there with the wings she is funny about that area and tells me

Hi there is it easy to put on? and also how did you get Alfie to tolerate it? been thinking about this for a while but i was worried of a bite and well all know what they are like

Does anyone know of a good place to get an aviary from? i`m in the UK so needs to be from here any links to sites would be great. I`ve been looking but not as easy as i`d first thought. For my Cag and Hahns macaw.

started to cover my cag kya and hahns oz they do better for it! i didn`t cover them from the start but wished i had.

the last few came out in flight lol

cheers Dave been like it a few days and what i`d been doing but to be safe i thought i`d ask lol many thanks again! Dave.

Kya has lost and regrown a few primary feathers but one the trail one looks like it is falling out and now has snapped but not all the way through. she can fly but it does get in the way. now what should i do? go get her checked? leave it till it falls out? if it does snap and the shaft is left in there will it be ok will it fall out ok?. Not sure what to do really i no if i`m not sure the best thing to do is to take her to get looked at. BUT the stress might be worse as she hasn`t been to see a vet yet!. Please advise many thanks Worried Dave.

What sort of size cage is good for a roost cage? one like this?? http://www.simplyparrots.co.uk/shop/shop.php?c=viewproduct&pid=25&cat=23&maincat=12&start=0&sid=siddbc74841851fb833080445215b79b869 if not what should i be looking for? would like to get one as again KYA is in the main family room and the tv and talking is going on the guys need sleep! Dave

KYA is doing the same she is now a year old i think the house heating is making it happen quicker? but i`d like to hear more on this i spray her twice a week in the afternoon not night. and also i use Aloe Vera Juice Drink neat in the spray bottle on its own after i wet them not all the time just now and then. http://www.hollandandbarrett.com/pages/product_detail.asp?pid=274&prodid=382 was told here in the forums it helps them.
