Michael-Alan Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 Greetings Everybody! I am introducing myself. I am Michael Alan. I have an African Grey parrot. His name is Woody Alan and he is 15 years old. I have had him since he was a baby. I joined because I am hoping there are others who will share their knowledge of keeping and caring for an African Grey parrot. Thanks for letting me in!

Hi and welcome. 15 yrs with a grey is a success that many haven't reached yet. We have loads and loads of info here in so many sections. We have many individual rooms. Feel free to ask and also share your experiences. Also, pics are welcome. By the way---CAG or TAG? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave, Woody Alan is a CAG and he is a "DNA tested" male. He knows quite a bit of words and phrases and can sing a few songs. Even though, I have had Woody for 15 years, I am still learning new things about caring for him all the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave007 Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 Dave, Woody Alan is a CAG and he is a "DNA tested" male. He knows quite a bit of words and phrases and can sing a few songs. Even though, I have had Woody for 15 years, I am still learning new things about caring for him all the time. I have a 15 yr old CAG, 7 yr old CAG and a 17 yr old TAG. 2 were adopted. They all talk. One mimics human words and speaks parrotese. The other 2 only talk in parrotese but all of them know what they're saying to each other when using parrotese. Even I understand them. Mine are all males. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luvparrots Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 Hi Michael Alan and Woody Alan. I have a male CAG, Sterling Gris, 3; and a female TAG, Ana Grey, 6. Both I have had since weaning. Ana Grey use to talk a lot but since Sterling Gris is such a big talker and singer, she has more or less shut down. Looking forward to learning more about Woody Alan. Welcome to the Grey family.

Brat Birds Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 Welcome! Love the Woody Allen name. I have a almost 9 yr.old TAG. He isn't a talker since he has mucous membrane problems. But he make all kinds of sounds and Mommy understands some of his parrotese. Love to see some pictures of Woody. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inara Posted September 15, 2014 Share Posted September 15, 2014 Welcome Michael and Woody! I currenently am bossed around by a very funny and talkative three year old TAG, Inara aka HerRoyalHighness or HRH for short. She is my 2nd Grey. My first, CAG named Lestat is long deceased. Inara is my 2nd half of life bird and since she is so much smaller than was my CAG, I call her my sports model. Can't wait to hear more about Woody and to see photos and or vids. Glad you found us!
