Boesman is very pretty... I can see he loves his toys. Thanks for the vets number, will keep it handy.

Hi I must agree very nice forum.... I got some good tips here. I must say at first I thought I was doing everything totaly wrong, but it seems I'm doing ok. I would like to have the number of the avian vet in Krugersdorp as I stay in Magaliesburg and I'm sure he would be the closest. I must say it looks as if Spokie is starting to eat more, think I must also only feed him 3 times a day then he will eat more at a time. How old is Boesman now?

Oops, sorry here is the pic of Spokie

Hi Again To all the lovely people who gave me such great advice, here is a picture of "Spokie" 5 weeks and so addorable.

Hi Luvparrots, Thanks, I'm sure I'm going to enjoy it here. I alredy feel part of the family, Thanks to all here, Im sure I'm going to learn a lot here.

Hi, Thanks for the helpfull info.... Only after I bought "Spokie" I learned that they must be weaned. Show you how much the pet shops in South africa knows. I feed him with a syringe, 6 times a day and most of the times he eats 15ml only, then you can see he doesn't want any more. He looks healthy, he is starting to stand up straight without falling over, he is stretching his legs and wings, Sometimes you can see he is trying to preen himself. I've got him for 4 days now and already he is eating more than day one. I hope it is sufficient, but you can feel his crop is full, it doesn't buldge just nicely round. I'm so glad I got to this website because I already feel part of the family, all you people is so nice and helpfull. Thank Pat, Caitlin and Judygram for all the links and info. I will definately put a picture up soon. Thanks again, and have I known I would not have bought a 5 week old baby. but it came very unexpected. But beleive me I will be very carefull and give him all the love and attention I can... he comes to work with me every day not a minute out of my sight, so addorable.

I just joined and browsed a bit.... this sure looks like fun and surely a very helpfull site. Always nice to talk to people with the same interests. Hope to have pics of my baby soon.

Hi, Im a new Grey owner.... got him/her 4 days ago he is 5 weeks old now. I've been reading all over.... how much must I feed him.... I feed him with Avi-Plus formula for hand-rearing parrots? I do feed hom 5 times a day and plus minus 15 ml then he does seem hungry any more.
