  1. Keep posting his/her pics - I like to watch them grow. They don't don't stay babies for long.
  2. Such a pretty girl. They seem to really love the sun shining through. Mine play a lot when the morning sun is beaming through their birdyroom window in the mornings.
  3. We thought about netting in our front porch area but after what happened to Ozzy(sp?) with those teenage bastards that shot him I won't expose my birds to anyone off the road that can take a pot shot at them with a pellet gun just for something fun to do.
  4. Our direct backyard is not much bigger than the typical postage stamp backyards everywhere. Shoot, we're still toying with the idea of netting our whole backyard in for them.
  5. Our Jardines head looks like that when our Caique gets done 'grooming' him. You don't possibly have another bird do you?
  6. You all must go through a ton of paper towels. I HATE going to Costco and buying their mega-size paper towel and toilet paper bundles and they're gone in a couple of weeks. Reusable is the way for me. I'll nuke my sponges/dish cloths, which is what I've been doing for years. Wife otoh plows through enough paper products for a family of 10.
  7. Is he still laying down like that? Never moves?
  8. Here's a picture of me growing up. If you ever think I'm moving north of 37 degree lat or east of 95 long. you're crazy. Snow is for fun days and melts within 24 hrs.
  9. Sounds like you're describing their 'yawn'. Does it also look similar to choking on something? It's normal.
  10. This is just what I needed. Ammo for my argument that it's ok for the birds to be pooping in the sink.
  11. That is the funny. We have a mylar balloon protecting our ceiling fan right now.
  12. We fued over this in our house. Wife hates sponges. I like to microwave the sponges. What do you think about microwaved sponges?
  13. My guess is they talk to deal with boredom or confinement or lack of ability to get around. My Grey has to deal with none of those things and rarely talks. Mostly Grey noises and the occasional fart or kookaburra. What led me to think this was when I was building the aviary. I had her confined to her little feeding cage outdoors with me for several days and she started talking but soon quit when she didn't have to deal that any longer. We can make her talk by locking her in the birdroom by herself for an extended amount of time. I don't think she's 'bashful', I just think she's dealing with being alone and bored.
  14. Wow - what a talker. All you with talking Greys make me jealous. I have to ask, is Sully flighted and if so does he fly much? The only time Greycie will go through her tiny repertoire of mostly noises is when she is confined to a cage or her birdroom. Otherwise it's no talking just screeching or other CAG noises. My theory is the more 'confined' they are the more they'll talk. Just a hunch though.
  15. My gosh, what a mess. Who's going to clean that up? Funny what different Greys like. Greycie won't do anything with a phone book/catalogue. But give her a wooden crate and I come home to splinters all over the floor.
  16. My wife's laptop has multiple keys missing from this very virus. This is dangerous and serious business people.
  17. That pop-up looks like serious business. I don't think pistachios will remove the pop-up. Be careful, I think you're stuck with that for a while.
  18. Greycie's main repetoire: - fart - ear piercing screech - ear piercing whistle Our Jardines now farts and burps. I believe I'm the only one in our house with any manners.
  19. Yes - you have the exact same problem. Since the site admin won't do anything about this, I have resorted to offering up pistachios. This will relieve symptoms for a short while, however, you will need to vacuum your keyboard.
  20. Come see it - you're just down the road!
  21. I'm glad I saw this post and Dave's response. Had I seen my Grey doing that I would have been sure I was dealing with a dying Grey and gone straight into panic mode. Learning post for sure.

  23. I just love this video: [video=youtube_share;t3q118uhKJM]
  24. No clipped wings in our house. Only one slight trimming to slow the little guy down so he doesn't overcook a corner again and kill himself.
