Sorry i was talking about a stand alone electric air purifier i can stick on each floor

Recently bought an african grey home. My brother in law is highly allergic to dust. Before the ***t hits the fan(no pun intended). I need to buy an air cleaner. What make and model is everyone using. Carl

I am not giving up on Chico. I'm in this for the long haul!!!!

Chico is feeling more at ease. He is swinging upside down on the new toy i gave him. One thing i noticed , He talks up a storm when my friends are here, (he never does that with me). I think his former owner abused him , We both looked the same(6 ft, black hair, green eyes, crew haircut). He shy's away when i am in the room. Ha time will tell

Welcome. Me and Chico reside in Freeport New York

I keep saying it. "Chico is slicker than i give him credit". The cage i bought for him is 30 wide, 24 deep and 5 feet high. My dog Sammy was looking for dropped food. Chico went to the bottom of the cage and slowly lured Sammy in. When Sammy was within range He would peck at Sammy. Chico" burped", and said "I am going to mess you up". I don't burp near Chico, he didn't learn that from me

Went to the parrot store got some zupreem fruit blend( he didn't like zupreen nutblend) and some African grey food. He ate some of it. The little bad boy bite me. Doesn't he realize i am his buddy.This guy is smarter than i give him credit for!!!!. Tomorrow is another day

Today i was on a mission. During the last week I opened the cage door and placed my hand near him. I left it there for a good 10 minutes or more. Today i touched the top of his head!!!!!. I tried to feed him pomegranate, Chico was spooked by the site of the red fruit(once i removed it he ate the apples/ threw the pear slices away). I still cannot get over how picky of an eater he is.. Hold on, after eating all the apple slices , he went to the bottom of the cage and ate the pear slices.

Somehow i think "Chico" is older than the 5 years his previous owner told me.Is there a way to tell the age of a grey?

Hi my name is Carl Am 57, I always wanted an cag(owned 2 senegal parrots), surfing craigslist, i came across "Chico". He was located in Pa, i am on long Island. We made an agreement i would pick him up on a saturday. After checking the miles(360) round trip,i got a call from the owner. If i wanted this bird. (For 400.00)( i ended up giving him $500.00)i would have to get him friday. Well checked the oil made it there. to pick up chico. On the way home, my hand slipped between the bars of the cage. Chico gave me a firm , bite, not enough to draw blood, just enough to tell me "Back Off". Got him Home, bought a large cage(craiglist). Let him cool down for 2 days. . Chico is the pickiest eater i have ever seen, Does not like zupreem pellets or roudybush pellets. only eats avi-cakes, cooked noodles , some fruits and veg, Loves his scrambled eggs, with turkey. When i got him , home i realized he was not banded. He is healthy, his voice sounds like beetlejuice. Its ok i love him anyways. It takes him 3 days to learn new words, more to come Carl
