This is my first visit to the grey forum. I am excited to learn and to share. I have a CAG that was just two in February. I fell in love with him from the first time I held him and I believe the feeling is mutual. I love how smart he is. We have five birds now, two Quakers, a cockatiel, the newest is an Eclectus male and Jack my grey. They all hang around their own cages but are not locked up during the day unless we go out. They seem content to stay there. It does get noisy sometimes but for the most part it is not bad. Jack has some issues that I would like to discuss but later, just wanted to introduce myself and read some of the posts. Thanks for having me.
