I have a rescued grey named Smokey and he is doing good but we have had him now for around 2 months , he still is not totally trustworthy of me, he is still kinda leary at times but he has done great so far , I let him on my shoulder last night for the first time and he was really good he just sat their chatting away for a good 20 minutes then he stepped down down very nicely for me to take him off , sometimes he will step right up from his cage and sometimes he goes the other way , I don't force it I just come back later and try again , I have him eating veggies and that's a plus but he picks his feathers and we are still working on that , he get lots of aloe vera baths and lots of pinecones to chew on , I still find a feather or 2 but nothing like all the feathers I found before , we are still a work in progress
