Hi Seahorse. I have a female TAG and a male CAG. I don't believe that the sex of the parrot matters. Mine both treat me the same. They come to me and follow me around. Greys are very intuitive. Treat your new grey with confident and love and you will get the same in return. You will be your new grey's flock and greys are flock animals. How you act will result in your new grey's personality and confidence. Read the many posts here at the forum and ask your questions and we will try to be of assistance. Welcome to the Grey family.

Welcome. Mine is a - was going to say a male, but he has not been dna'd so I really am not sure! LOL So, I can not judge if he is acting that way because he is one or the other. I agree, if you can visit them all, one just may pick you. Doesn't happen every time, but it does happen once in a while.

I have a female Timneh and I'm female. She thinks I'm the stuff--wants to be with me 24/7!! I doubt if this is because she's female though. I'd say a male would like all the treats and head scratches just as much!! I hope you stick around the forum and continue learning. It's helped me a lot as I've only had my grey a couple of weeks. Seems a lot longer.
