Hi Gerhard and welcome to you and your TAG. If you ever need help we are here for you. Lots of info. so resd all you can.

Hi reema and welcome, There is alot of info. here that will help you with your grey and if you can`t find it, just ask. A grey will change your life in ways you would not expect.

Can your zon carry a tune ??? As much as Cricket keeps trying she will never win American Idol. Off key is the norm.

welcome to the grey forum and the rest of your clan also. Yep there is a bunch of us. They say that there is strength in numbers.

If it wasen`t for attitude it would not be a grey. Corky thinks she is in charge and don`t tell her differant.

Did you not know that when he is screaming your name that you should say yes master. Don`t you know who is in charge?

Enjoy this time that they will cuddle and use this time to socialise Simon and build a strong bond and relationship. When you build a strong bond the reast will come alot easer because you will have a conection. Make this a fun time.

If you like you can stay at my house and bring your bell. I could use a good butler. Yes we are a slave to our pets. We have two dogs and one is very old and has to go out at 3 A.M. every day (Or morning)

IMO, If you teach your bird to talk they will mimic, If you talk to your bird they will understand.

Mojo looks great and I bet you can`t wait to bring him home. Corky was 9 weeks old when we met her and she came home at 14 weeks. She is now 10 1/2 .

This is a great story and it shows human and bird bonding can go far beyond human and parrot bonding and it`s not a new thing. A friend of mine had a crow that took to him for years untill the crow passed away.

Just want you to know we are thinking of you.

Our birds are a lot like us as today they have a taste for one thing and the next day it`s something eles. And it`s fun to watch them when they have a choise.

We also have pet decals in the window of the room are pets are in that tell what kind and the number.

Corky is our 10 1/2 year old CAG that we met when she was 9 weeks old and was 14 weeks old when she came home with us. Corky has a very very strong bond with me my wife and my son and has never changed. She is also very out going and will go to most people at her first meeting. Not all greys fit the profile and each is their own self. I found that a lot of things I read are generalizations and that there are too many exceptions that cover too many trates in their profile. I also found this true when it comes to amazons also.

Setbacks build stronger bonds

Hi Barbara. We hope you are safe and ok too. We do have a plan because we have 4 birds 2 dogs and 3 cats. We are lucky because we have a large basement that has a family room the fifth bed room and 2 other rooms. Tha dogs an cats will go down on their own but the birds we take down to their other cages. We don`t have as many tornados in north east Ohio as central U.S. or as you in Southern Ohio but we get our fair share. O would be better but that won`t happen.

I have told the story of Cricket many times and how she has evolved. She never had toys as far as I know but we gave her a bunch of them that she never played with. The only thing that came with her was this old oval tub that she kept by her side all the time. It was big enought for her to climb in and play. She would carry that tub all over the cage put her head in it and make noise. We all ways had toys in the cage that she did not play with. Now she has been with us for 2 1/2 years and she is about 15 years old. About a month ago she started to play with the toys in her cage that have been there for 2 1/2 years. It started with one and befor long she was playing with all of them. Now she is like a monkey it the zoo and it only took 2 1/2 years. The other thing is when she come to us she could not fly because of her weight and we got her weight down to where she could fly, but she would rather walk or climb to get to where she wanted to go. She would fly once twice a month and that was it. Today she started to fly and has flown more in two hours than she has in the 2 1/2 years. Don`t know what started her but she had a ball. She is my sweet zon and it`s always great to see her keep comming out of her shell and do the things she is supposed to do in her life

Welcome to the forum and yes we love pictures. When it comes to greys there is a lot of good stuff here. Ask all the question you want and there will always be some one to help. WHAT IS HIS NAME

We all like to share are moments and it`s something parrot people understand. IT`S important to you, it`s important to us. We like to share.

So glad things are working out for Sully. I know you want the best for him and it sounds like he found some one that he wants to be with. The years we have had parrots we have found they like to have some control over their life and some times it`s hard to find a balance that each can live with. Good luck to you and Sully and always know you played a important part in his life.

Happy Hatch day Josey and many more to come. Corky wants to wish you all the best also.

This one is off the wall Looking for a Zon go to "Amazon.con" for your online shopping.

Did Louie go back to his cage ok at bedtime ??

He is a young man and he is playing hard to get, but I think he is comming around. This is the day you have been looking for so enjoy. I bet he might just step up if you try.
