Hi everyone I am an 18 year old guy from Canada and my family has been researching and thinking about adding a Congo African Grey to our family. We have no other pets except my 2 year old boxer. I have been lurking around here for a long time reading the posts and have been on a few other sites and have decided on getting a Grey because of their intelligence,funny personality and the well socialized ones are a blast to be around. This is my first Larger bird, but I think that my family can handle the new pet. I have read alot of info through the months on their upkeep, socialization, health,and all of the other important topics. I just wanted to ask you people on here who are living with a grey about the mess. I will for sure keep the cage area and everything else fresh and spotless with daily maintenance but wanted to know apart from this if these guys have an noticeable odour to them or do they make any mess in the area that they are in? I ask because this is the only concern and something that we are unsure of that we (well mostly my mom) have. Thanks!
