SterlingSL I'm going to have to just get over my fears of being bit. Thank you!

Thank you!

I've actually never tried to get her to step up, I'm so nervous she will take a chunk out of my finger! I'm slowly working towards it though, I will open her door and she will sit there and I'll talk to her and offer her toys etc.. I would love to be able to handle her and spend quality time with her. She is around me all day as I'm a stay at home mom, so I have the time to devote to her.

Hi everyone, My mother has a african grey about 13 years old now, we live together in the same house as well, along with my husband and two young children. My mother is her favorite person and will not bite her, only if she is frightened which is rare. She has bitten me a few times in the past so I'm afraid of her now. I will inherit her one day and would love to be her best friend. She will sometimes give me a kiss through the bars of her cage, she will allow me to give her treats as well. I'm the one who looks after her, giving her food/water cleaning her cage daily etc.. How can I get her to love me and not bite me? In the past when she has been out of her cage she will happily sit near me and would chase my feet and peck at them. But if I tried to put my hand near her she would try to bite me. Thank you all in advance.

Hello! I was wondering how long does it take a grey to recover from an illness after being givin an antibiotic such as doxycyclin?
