Your baby is gorgeous!!

Sorry i havent updated sooner....we went and saw him yest and we took him!! Hes lovely, i obviously havent tried touching him or anything like that yet but he is ok with me standing and talking to him and he is whistling and making some noises and mostly muttering. I think hes lovely!!

Hi, first post here:) Just need some advice on taking in a 3 year old male african grey, ive spoken to the lady who has him and she says that he used to be tame and come out of his cage but he hasnt been out of his cage for a long time now and hes no longer tame, she said if you put your fingers through the bars he will grab you and that its when you try and pull away it hurts. Im just wondering if i took this bird will it be able to be tamed again with a lot of work? Are some birds never tamed and resigned to a life inside its cage? Or is it just a trust issue? The lady admits she hasnt spent enough time with him and that he hasnt been out of his cage for ages. I just need to know if there is hope that this bird can be tamed again. She says he talks really well so he must be happy in his cage- not sure i agree with that. Ive not met him yet but she hasnt mentioned him feather plucking or anything like that. Can a bird be happy in his cage? Would he def be plucking if he was unhappy? Lots of questions sorry!!!
