  1. When our dogs were alive Corky would call them by name and throw her peanuts at them. The ones in the shell.
  2. They try to tell us, but we don`t listen to them. Skin is bad for you, don`t you know.
  3. First and foremost Lunch with the ladies is always a first priority. Did you not know that !! ??
  4. Corky will also hang upside down for long periods of time also. They are wanabebats.
  5. Cricket was a good singer, a bit off key but a singer in her own right.
  6. I believe that Greys are no different than humans when it comes to emotions and situations that happen to us and them in our daily life We don`t all ways tell people what is going on in our life. Some times we just have to get over it. At one time or another we all end up with a stone in our shoe.
  7. That loud shrill squeak is some thing all greys come with. Its their attention getter and call to the world. I am here, I am a Africa Grey, like it or not. It`s said that Greys are the quiet ones in the parrot word. HA HA HA .
  8. Corkys cage is 36X24X72 and she will use every inch of her cage. Some greys will stay in the top section at first but after time they will explore every inch. Weather Corky is in her cage or out of her cage she likes to walk around the floor and bite your toes.
  9. When it comes to our greys we always want a happy ending. To get back something we loved like a grey is something special.
  10. It`s great when the outings re enjoyed by all. New sights and fresh air too.
  11. I can tell you that I can understand that one !!!!
  12. When Corky was younger she also did the scratching thing but now she just likes to destroy stuff.
  13. Some times we call our Greys by name other than their real name. It could be out of love or frustration or that they got into some thing they should not have. You can`t tell me that your Grey is a perfect angle. I have had a Grey for far to long to believe that one. They are sneaks at beat and are to smart for their own good. When Corky does some thing good it`s oh Corky baby. When it`s not so good it`s HAY BUTT HEAD !!!, With that said she knows she is in trouble When she is sweet and cuddly it`s OH BABY GIRL. There is another name but I will mention that one. What do you call your Grey when it falls of the wagon ??

    I need help

    I never had much luck doing videos befor and I want to give it a shot.
  17. There a little to young for the no no thing, but they could end up being a bonded pair in the future. That could end up effecting how they bond with you if left together.
  18. Depending on your source of information it said that 161 species of birds have gone extinct since 1500 Some sources say up to 190 species have gone extinct with 30% of the most recently extinct birds lived in HAWAII. The rate of extinction is increasing There are 5 species of birds that are extinct in the wild but have large populations in captivity. We as humans seam to be the cancer to earth. We are poor custodians when it comes to our planet.
  19. Can you describe your parrots in a short phrase?? I will start this one. Corky my CAG Part time professor, Part time comedian !!!. Cricket my Amazon (RIP) Class clown. !! Willie my Cockatiel(RIP) The old man. They each are their own.
  20. It1s good to travel around with your Grey. Corky has traveled all across the U.S. with us. She has traveled in our SUVs, cares, Trucks and our motor homes. She has also stayed in hotels, motels the homes of friends and family. It was nothing for us to pick up and go some place with Corky in tow. On one of our trips to W.V. in our motor home to see my wife brother we were coming up to toll both on the P.A. turn pike I herd the flap, flap of her wings and she landed on my shoulder as I was paying the toll she leaned forward and called the man taking the money a DORK. We had just bought her a new travel cage and she watched me put it together. Well she disassembled the top part of her cage and removed the top and got out. So much for letting her watch me put things together' She has a mechanical aptitude
  21. YOUR NOT ALONE. Some times when I proofread my post and I submit my post and I read it when it comes up in the thread I think to my self OH sh*t (when I make that silly error) their going to think I dumb. Or how about when you read your post or your reply a day or two later and there are 10 other reply`s after yours and that's when you see your badly misspelled words that you missed.
  22. OH they know how to get their point across and some times they do over do it. It`s the only way they know for sure how to get your attention. Are they sorry ? No, but they did get their point across.. You gotta love them.
  23. I can`t believe its been over 5 years that I lost my loved Amazon Cricket. .Its still very hard for me to talk about her as we shared a very special bond. Not every one can get along with a Zon as they are strong minded and are said to the most difficult to get to know and understand. The one lesson that Cricket taught me was that she had respect for me and people that had self-confidence in them self. When an Amazon forms a bond it can be so strong that nothing can break it..
