First off, after 20 days of food conversion, I have finally gotten Coral to exclusively eat Harrisons along with her veggies. Ok, here is the bad news I found this mess when I got home from work! I only work 8 hours!!!! At this rate, she will eat me out of house and home. I've been monitoring her weight so I know she is ingesting a lot of it, but is this waste normal after a conversion? Any Harrison users out there with the same problem? Thought I would post this to let those that have followed my conversion thread know that with a little patience, their diets can be change.

I just bought a bag from zupreem naturals. I'll see where this goes. thanks!

Hey guys, I want to improve the overall health and well being of Coral, so i have decided to convert her over to Harrison's from Pretty Bird. I'm on day three of the conversion. So far, I can get her to eat it if I mix it with Pretty Bird. She would wait until she's done with the PB before she even tries the Harrison. If there is PB left, she would not touch the Harrison. I've been doing 3/4 Harrison and 1/4 Pretty Bird. From reading others' experience, it seems that I am at the stage where I need to convert her over Cold Curkey? That is to not offer pretty bird and stick with Harrison? Is this too cruel? I feel really bad to doing this, knowing that she doesn't like it as much..... HELP! OR PLEASE REASSURE ME....

NIce cage!!

Judy, in your previous post, you mentioned the term beak. How do u define being beaked?

I agree.. Greys have no odor unless u get really close to them. Depending on what you feed them, their poo does have a slight smell. It's not bad though. Nothing like a hamster or any other pets I've owned.

Paypal will allow me to dispute as soon as I give him 7 days to prove he won't. So, this coming tuesday, I will file a formal dispute. Wish me luck!

Can I use something like this? http://www.homedepot.com/h_d1/N-5yc1vZ1xhc/R-100613495/h_d2/ProductDisplay?langId=-1&storeId=10051&catalogId=10053 Or like this? http://www.homedepot.com/h_d1/N-5yc1vZ1xhc/R-100687004/h_d2/ProductDisplay?langId=-1&storeId=10051&catalogId=10053 Or does it really have to be made for birds? Thanks guys!

pearllyn: I'll look into that. loveparrots: Exactly what brand did you get? I have a true value near my home and want the same.

Can someone recommend a good light bulb to use above corals cage? We live in an apartment, so he only gets sunlight 4 times a week. I want to ensure he's getting his UVB rays.

RALEE, You won't regret getting that cage. As you know, I am bias toward that cage. Coral loves it and I'm sure both of you will too. If you have any questions about assembling it, just ask. Did I tell you there is no manual included? LOL It's not so bad though. Just and FYI, item E that is being called in the old diagram that is included with your cage is not needed. I thought they forgot it, but I double checked and they told me that item E is no longer needed.
