Boom Posted October 7, 2010 Posted October 7, 2010 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)
Luvparrots Posted October 7, 2010 Posted October 7, 2010 Congratulations on your new grey. Have you picked out a name yet? I know how excited you are as I had to wait 2 months before I brought my grey home and that was 2 years ago. They are fascinating creatures!!! Can't wait to see your grey's pictures and hear how the homecoming goes. Welcome to the Grey family!!!
judygram Posted October 7, 2010 Posted October 7, 2010 Hello Boom and welcome to the family, look forward to seeing some pictures when you get your baby home.
Boom Posted October 7, 2010 Author Posted October 7, 2010 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
Jayd Posted October 8, 2010 Posted October 8, 2010 You've got a Grey't start, Welcome... Jayd, Maggie, and Spock...

Barbara2 Posted October 8, 2010 Posted October 8, 2010 It looks fantastic! I am very excited for ALL of you!
danmcq Posted October 8, 2010 Posted October 8, 2010 Wow! Nice setup. Your new baby will have a nice home once arriving. One thing you may want to watch when you get your baby home, is how well it perches and coordination. If he or she seems a little unstable (Normal) you may want to place a towel or two in the bottom should your baby take a fall when climbing around. Thanks for posting the photos.
Boom Posted October 8, 2010 Author Posted October 8, 2010 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
JDS5607 Posted October 8, 2010 Posted October 8, 2010 Hi Boom! Thanks for the pictures! What a great cage! I hope you enjoy your new addition! Congratulations!!!
Boom Posted October 9, 2010 Author Posted October 9, 2010 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
Barbara2 Posted October 9, 2010 Posted October 9, 2010 I'm glad you posted that so we can get a sense of the time zone. It's 10:40 p.m. here right now. That means I won't have to wait as long once I get up to "meet" your little guy.
danmcq Posted October 9, 2010 Posted October 9, 2010 It should be just about time that your getting ready to leave and get your new baby. Looking forward to an update.
JDS5607 Posted October 9, 2010 Posted October 9, 2010 AHH! I can't wait to meet your baby! Please post pictures as soon as he is settled in!
Luvparrots Posted October 9, 2010 Posted October 9, 2010 Well, where is this new baby?????? Details please!!!!! Waiting patiently....
Barbara2 Posted October 9, 2010 Posted October 9, 2010 I keep refreshing, refreshing, refreshing..... I feel like the visitor in the maternity waiting room and labor is taking WAY too long!
judygram Posted October 9, 2010 Posted October 9, 2010 Lilly is going to adore that cage, yes she likes it.
Boom Posted October 9, 2010 Author Posted October 9, 2010 (edited) Oh I'm so sorry I pasted pictures of Lilly in under a year thread she's so gorgeous http://www.greyforums.net/forums/showthread.php?191200-Say-Hello-to-Lilly-o) Edited October 9, 2010 by Boom
judygram Posted October 9, 2010 Posted October 9, 2010 Well she is under a year so it is the right place, she is gorgeous and has a lovely name too.
Barbara2 Posted October 9, 2010 Posted October 9, 2010 She is beautiful! (Love the name!) I'm at a football game but just had to check in. (Score is 14-0)
Coral&Andrew Posted October 10, 2010 Posted October 10, 2010 hey welcome here, you have a lovely cage and lots of nice toys i can certainly tell you grey is gonna be spoiled I hope you enjoy your gray cant wait to see pictures!
Boom Posted October 13, 2010 Author Posted October 13, 2010 She is beautiful! (Love the name!) I'm at a football game but just had to check in. (Score is 14-0) Lol barb must be a bengals fan.
Barbara2 Posted October 13, 2010 Posted October 13, 2010 Lol barb must be a bengals fan. Actually I was at a Cincinnati Bearcats game. (I like college football better than professional. The tickets and the beer are cheaper.)
Boom Posted October 13, 2010 Author Posted October 13, 2010 I wont tell ya i was a bills fan for 35 years then =o)
Barbara2 Posted October 13, 2010 Posted October 13, 2010 I wont tell ya i was a bills fan for 35 years then =o) It's our secret, as long as you don't tell these Cincinnati people that I'm a Steeler's fan.
