i dont even have my grey yet (later today i will) but i dont agree with getting their wings clipped. my opinion is it would be like me taking you to the doctor to have your feet removed it stops you from being able to do something you would naturally be able to do. my house has already had extra measures put in to make sure no one can just open a door or a windlw without taking atleast one extra step so they think about if the bird is out and about or not. why you would consider having the wings clipped because of paranoia of losing your pet. think of the animal its supposed to be. a bird, birds should have the ability to fly unless ya bought a penguin in a grey suit. just my opinion and i know there are many more out here so dont take any of what i say as law =o)

thank you its 3.30 am now and no chance of any more sleep so while i wait i have a small batch of lentils, black eyed peas,split peas,aduki beans, butter beans, barley and kidney beans already soaked for 12 hrs and now cooking through so later when we get home just have to warm it up a bit from the fridge and mix in a bit of veg.ing 12 hrs from now we will have the newest addition and be on the way home. damn i hate waiting lol

thanks for the tip. thats one of the reasons i leaf the one perch very low as well so if it didnt feel steady it could perch lower if it liked. towels are easily sorted and a good idea for the first little bit anyhow till we soo how much coordination our little one has thanks again

ok all ready and biting at the bit to go pick the new addition tomorrow afternoon ( has to be afternoon cause i am workin in the morning ,grumble grumble) we have the cage decked out just waiting for a lil feathered friend to put in it hehe in the meantime this is what his new home is lookin like thinkin we have bases covered but i am sure i will find something i forgot tomorrow afternoon lol

havent picked a name yet because i wanna see the type of character the bird has so the name suits the bird. i have a few in the wings (bad pun, lol) but nothing definate till saturday evening

got a grey on the way this sat, 12 week old picking up from a local breeder. already got cage, toys, food, treats and prolly a ton of other bits i dont really need but all i can say is the new addition will never be hurting for anything. between me and my wife its gonna end up spoilt in no time lol. looking forward to picking some of your brains as i run across problems as i know its not an easy road but it is a road worth traveling. cya in a few days with pics =o)
