Hi! I've searched with no luck. What about starter logs for a wood fire? Terri<br><br>Post edited by: freedaw, at: 2009/12/27 20:39

That's so neat that ours are only one day apart. It's going to be interesting to see how each of them progress. Mater is at the point where he just gurgles a bit but he's started playing with toys a little more now since last week. I changed the type of toy I had in his cage from a hard plastic to something shredable. It seems to have made a big difference. He's still more of a lover than anything else. Does Adaya like a bath yet?

Emma is adorable! Great video of the fright. I checked out some of your others while I was there. The I love you one is precious! Since I posted this the other day, I started half covering Mater's cage. It hasn't happened anymore so I guess it will be a nightly ritual. When we're home, he's on his grapevine tree in the living room or usually on me. I'm taking an online course in the evenings after work and he sure does make it hard to get anything accomplished. Thanks for sharing the videos! Terri

Oh my, Thanks to you all for answering so quickly! Mater's hatch date was 2/6/09. So, Caitb, ours are very close in age. After reading and thinking about it a little more, it is possible that headlights could have caused a shadow against the blinds. Their room is in the front of the house. The room has a huge window with an arch. We are one of the entrance homes in our subdivision and anyone that turns in will definately shine their lights towards our home. This happened around 1:30 am. Mater's cage is not normally covered but thinking about it now, it would probably be a good idea. We have had him for 1 month. His name comes from the movie "Cars". The tow truck in the movie was named "tow-mater":..."mater" for short. Cute, cute movie. Also, one of the first veggies he ate was a tomato. Seemed like a good fit. Thanks to you all so much! Will definately do the photobucket thing and post a few pics.

Hi everyone, New to the forum and I have found it to be very helpful already. I've had birds for most my life but my 6 month old CAG named Mater is my first Grey and my heart has been stolen! "He's" not sexed yet but next month he will be. Extremely lovable and just wants to be skritched. Not a big toy enthusiast yet but we're working on that thanks to some tips on this board. Gurgles but no speech. I'm hoping he will though. One thing I would like to ask...Last night, it was almost like he had night frights. He thrashed in his cage for about an hour. Lost 3 tailfeathers. When I opened the cage, he flew out. It was almost like he didn't want back in. I held him for a bit and finally got him calm. I haven't found any threads yet on this. Is it a common thing for them to do? Looking forward to talking with you all. Pics of Mater and the crew soon. Thanks for any help! Terri
