My grey hates to bathe, hates the spray bottle, even! I hear about other greys who LOVE to bathe and shower, and I wonder what the heck is wrong with mine!:huh:

My grey is quiet most of the day, but does make noises and whistles a few times each day. She's only 7 months old so she's experimenting with different sounds now. But for the most part she's pretty calm and quiet.

Aww, what a sweet bird!

That's adorable!

What a doll Larry turned out to be! I can't imagine anyone giving up such a magnificent creature such as him! Good job!

What a sweetheart!

Thanks for posting that....we plan to go on vacation this summer, and I've been considering taking the CAG with us. Now that I know it's possible, I might just do it too!

Adorable!

Hi, I just wanted to welcome you to the forum. I got my grey from an out of state breeder too, and I had all the same concerns you are having now! Everything worked out beautifully, though. My grey is now 7 months old and I treasure her! Like everyone here said, just read all you can about greys and ask any questions you may have. Everyone is so friendly here! I'm sure you'll find the information here to be helpful. Congratulations on the baby grey, you don't have much longer to wait! Bobbi

Tyco is beautiful!

Thanks everyone! I think I finally know how to make the pictures smaller now, thanks for bearing with me on the super-sized photos I put up earlier!

I've only been here for a week or so, and I'm already addicted to this website! There's so much helpful information, it's hard not to spend too much time here! Thanks to everyone who keeps this site going! Bobbi

Hi, I have a conure and an African Grey as well. I'm amazed at how loving and tame my conure is, I never thought he'd get as close to us as he has. I'm sure you'll fall in love with your Grey in no time...they are very special birds! Welcome to the group, there's so much information here and everyone makes you feel right at home! Bobbi

Last one!

Another of my fur baby!

jhhuhma----this is for you!

I have 3 Peke's, and they each have their own personality and temperment...they're so loving and gentle with my 3 kids! And you're right about not seeing the Pekingese breed very often. Thanks again for your message!

Hi, I'm Bobbi! Nice picture of Big Bird!

Hi, fellow bird lover! I've found this group to be so warm and friendly, with tons of useful information! I hope you do, too! Bobbi:)

That's a good idea about the wax paper! I'll have to try that. Thanks everyone!

Thanks, Sallas. I'll have to try that, too.

Oops, sorry that was so big....I'm still learning how to post photos here!

I keep cleaning my birds cages with a little dishsoap and warm water on a rag....but I need something stronger for the CAG's large cage, and larger messes! What is safe to use? I don't see any special bird cage cleaners at the pet stores near me. What does everyone else use?<br><br>Post edited by: PekingeseMama, at: 2009/02/05 19:03

Thanks, everyone! Gotta love the little critters! (human ones included!)

Thanks for the idea, danmcq! I might get by with that same trick with my hubby, too, if I wear enough holey clothes! :silly:
