Hello from Zeke, Ade and Dave

[nquizitive]

Hi, just a quick introduction. I found the forum last night while in search of information about causes for Zeke falling from his perch. From the responses to that post along with all the information available on the site it seems we will be frequent visitors.

Adrienne (Ade) and I are both new to parrots but have read enough to know some of the GOOD and not so good points of sharing a home with a parrot. We are and will be in the learning process. As I said in the post about Zeke falling, he has had a rough 5 years but is warming up to us. He will step up but is a bit nervous about it and is very nervous about any touching, butting the hand away and threatening to bite. It will take some time to gain his trust and we are prepared for that. We are happy just having him in the house with us and love listening to his chatter and constantly hearing something new from him. The range of sounds he can make is incredible. Being able to handle him is a bonus.

We recently moved to Randle Wa. and love it. We have a raccoon family, we see frequently outside the back fence, Elk and Deer are seen daily grazing in the fields. The mountains are all around us and are beginning to get snow while we are still in shirt sleeves. A beautiful place to be.

Anxious to be a part of the forum here.

Hello and welcome to the family, Dave and Ade, glad you could join us and we look forward to hearing more about you two and your new grey, Zeke.

 

It takes time to build trust and to bond with a new grey, especially a rehomed one with a neglectful past, but with lots of love and proper handling, he should make a wonderful companion for you and your family.

 

If you have any pictures of Zeke you would like to share with us we would love to see him. We really like to admire each other's greys and Zeke is no exception.

 

If you have any specific questions you would like to ask, feel free to do so, we have lots of members here who are very knowledgeable in the area of greys and can answer most any questions. We will help you in any way we can, all you have to do is ask.

 

Thanks for taking the time to introduce yourself and welcome to our greyt family.
