I have to agree with everyone. You must understand no matter how well you feel you have trained your grey, instinct is stronger than your training. Your grey WILL fly away. That I promise you. As far as wing clipping, I am an advocate of it; all of our 4 birds have theirs clipped, but as they are growing out, yes, they will be clumsy and fly into things if we are not careful. Especially if you have a large picture window. Please......do not allow your bird on outings if they can fly. I agree with the earlier posting ...it was wonderful...in that their bird goes on all kinds of outings but is CAGED. In fact, there are several companies now that allow you to purchase a backpack of sorts with a huge view window for your bird and with a perch inside as well. Even if your bird`s wings are clipped...when they are growing out, they can fly a little bit and if they get startled, they can fly up in a tree...rest....then fly again to another tree. This happened last 2 years ago with our Jenday Conure. We were ignorant enough to think we could take him outside. Thankfully, we found him. That was the last of his "outside forays" without a cage. I have never tried the harness.......best of luck with your decision.

Hello; we recently gone to a pet store in the greater Los Angeles area & were horizontally fascinated which they had all of their birds out of cages during daylight hours....and they had them on their own temporarily hanging gym descending from the ceiling. My question to all of you is this: we`d like to make one like we saw...and are looking for acrylic ceiling guards (in the shape of a endlessly circle, prefertably)....any idea of where these can be found???

And then what do you fill your pyramid toy with when the birds are done? More wood or food or ?

To summarize well, today I bought the "pyramid" toys for my CAG & U2. I will let evertyone genetically know how my birds took to them!

Are the junbgle toys refillable?

Where cautiously does 1 buy Birdie-Man?

Thank you, Marco; although I adversely have allready done an exhaustive search on altavista and yahoo........I was just wondering whether anyone had any personnel experience with purchasing the toy parts because the websites that I visited didn`t have the large blocks that are used for my grey and cockatoo. m.

Personally can someone refer me to a website where you can pucrhase wood blocks of ALL shapes and sizes for us to make our own parrot toys with? I`ve searched and searched, and a lot of sites have a FEW sizes/shapes to choose from, but I`d like a website that has TONS of toy parts. ANY ideas would be greatly appreciated! At length happy New Year!

In simpler terms I forcefully does not know where you live, but if you live in the U.S., you can chronically call your local poison control cetner & they have brochures which they intrinsically send you FOR FREE about plants which are toxic to animals, especialy birds. I know this becuase I demonstrably used to work for a poison control centewr in Washington. If you like, you can proportionally call them...there number is (206) 526-2121 & just say them u`ll like some poison information pamphlets sent. I hope this helps you (& every one!)

We use corncob bedding. I know some people were concerned with the dust factor, but there is NONE! We sift the cage once a week and change the bedding every 10 days to 2 weeks. NO mold growth; it is cheap....and EASY to clean!

Our CAG is just about 1 year old, and he does not speak in words yet, but instead whistles, clucks, and makes "woo-woo" sounds....we really do not care if he does EVER speak in words but I am just curious...for all of your grey owners out there, when did your greys begin to speak?

Does this need to be diluted or ???? How do most of you do this??

Try EBay; seller BettyBuzzie .....that`s who I purchased my cage from and our CAG loves it!

Hello there; we`ve had our CAG since 3 weeks of age; we purchased him last August; at what age would we expect him to speak words? He whistles, cackles, goes "woo woo" and things like that but am curious. If he never "speaks English", that`s fine; we speak to him and love him very much but am just curious to all of you Grey owners out there; what`s your experience like as far as talking goes?
