[LeAnn]

I am not new to greys my husband and i have had Stormy for bout 9 yrs or so she has no bad habbits except try to eat me:p i bought her for myself from the local ben franklin store (for those of u not familar with it small version of walmart also used to be called dime stores) anywas NOT a pet store stormy was in this tiny cage only fit for couple lovies anyways she loved me until brought her home where then decided i was a chew toy and hubby was her man and NO ONE was or is allowed to touch him when she is out and no females can get near her cage LOL....however she is in good health and has never had plucking issues....SO i said all that to ask about our rescue bird Dodge he/or she is about 10 to 15 yrs old came from a good home orgionally had a couple to care for her they split up and was cared for by the man he dearly loved her but due to his age and health was placed in a nursing home and she was passed to his brother..who cared for her until last night when i picked her up and brought her home she isn't mean that i can tell i can put my hands in her cage without getting bit (so far i was told is a mans bird hated the woman for some reason did a turn around and stopped liking her) anyways she started plucking while in the brothers care... im taking her to the vet as soon as i can however im wondering if its a diet thing in the mean time..Totally seed dependant wont even touch peanuts only eats sunflowers and corn in her food mix...can u guys suggest some food for me for her that may appeal a bit more i tried pellets that our grey eats but no interest so far also tried kale which she HATES lol and any other suggestions u can give me, i am also thinking a mist shower will help
