Hello all! I decided to find a grey forum so that I could make sure that I have what it takes to raise a happy, healthy grey. I fell in love with this bird when I was 16 years old, as my friend's grandparents had a grey. Here I am, eleven years later, preparing to bring a grey into our home. We have one 2 year old daughter & one 5 year old yorkie. We just rescued a 2 year old min pin. Our house is definitely full of love and craziness! However, it won't be complete until I realize my decade long dream of having a grey! I currently stay at home with my daughter, while finishing up my degree at Auburn University. War Eagle! Anywho, I'm here to talk to you guys & gals so I can learn first hand what to expect, and how I can be the best companion to my future grey. Hopefully in the future, I'll be sharing grey stories with you guys. I look forward to talking with y'all!! Kristin

Thank y'all so much!! You guys have been most helpful and informative! Please bear with me, as I will be asking lots of questions

Hello! I am new here. I've always wanted a grey, after falling in love with my friend's grandparent's grey some time ago. I have done a good bit of research on this bird. Now, I am considering bringing one home in the next year, or so. One question I have (and I have many), is what do you do with your grey when you have to leave town. My guess is they would not do well just having some one come over to feed them, right? Also, do most of you get to stay home all day with your birds? I am currently a stay at home mom, but will be looking for work later this year. I definitely don't want to get one if they get stressed out in these two circumstances. Thanks ahead for your advice!
