:)Hi, lets see if we can summarize, it appears that most feel that your afraid of being bitten, and your having trouble hiding your emotions around your fid, it seems most of the posts agree upon this.
You have a "Bird Whisperer"[?] coming over to give you some advice. Question? How many years Grey parrot experience has this person had? How many Greys has he/she raised? How many years has this person owned/ lived daily with a Grey? How old is this person? If you add all the years of all the people who have responded to your thread that they've raised or worked with Greys, they are truly Bird Whisperer's'
Question? if this person has limited experience with Greys, the same above questions apply's to other parrots. Question? is their knowledge mostly from books?:confused:
If you go into a room with 50 Amazons or another group of parrot's, all the same age, you'll find about 98% are all the same or extremely similar, emotional etc.
Now, do the same with Greys! you'd be lucky to find 2 alike! My point, for a parrot other than a Grey, a single person can advise, with a Grey, this isn't possible, there's just not enough years. :eek:
Right here you have the best advice on earth, These good people have felt not only the good and fun of Greys, but the tragedy as well, and pass on this advice to all who ask!
