He is find with everyone else but puffs up when I come in the room. There is also a song that we whistle to each other very day. He will start and then stop and let me finish and then I stop and he picks up from where I left off. He hasn't whistled the song in three days. Its really odd, kind of cute in a way but I am hoping he isn't traumatized by something I may have inadvertently did. I took a video oh how he puffs up. http://http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xKVA2DOoYAI

At first we had separate cages but they seemed to want to be together. Sometimes Pablo picks on her but not very often. When he does she screams so we can intervene. Its funny because when he does pick on her he keeps saying "Are you ok?" while she is screaming. He usually stops as soon as we walk in the room but they really do love each other.

Yes we were disgusted that she was so mistreated. Actually Tika is starting to talk a little but we chose to love her regardless. She is really a cool bird. She is not too fond of me, but thats ok. She is great with children who come to visit and she seems to play the background music for Pablo is whistling the songs I taught him.

Thanks Dave! This is really neat.

Hello, My name is chip and I wanted to introduce myself. We have two African Grey's and we love them to death. Pablo is a male Congo that I got in February of 2002. Until recently he favors me. Tika is a female Timnah who my spouse rescued in June 2008. We think she is about two years old. She was rejected by her original owners because she didn't talk. She favors my spouse who has really bonded with her and she picks up on tricks really fast. We have some cool videos of Pablo at http://http://www.youtube.com/user/chipcouncil<br><br>Post edited by: chipcouncil, at: 2009/07/21 17:58

Hello everyone. I am really worried about me CAG. It took him about a month to warm up to me when I got him in the spring of 2002 but after that we have been buds. Pablo is 7 years old now. He is very intelligent and I have been able to teach him so many entertaining things. About two days ago I went in to feed him and he puffed up like evil bird. He will no longer step up for me but will for my spouse. He seems to be healthy but something I did must have really pissed him off. This is strange because he has always been so good natured and I have been able to pet him and everything. Ha anyone had similar experiences?
