Love4Grays Posted February 20, 2007 Share Posted February 20, 2007 My name is Cori and I am desperately looking for a Gray of my own. I recently was scammed by a guy who claimed he had parrits for sale but i figured it out in time to get my money back from the moneygram company. I have wanted one of these birds for years now. I would love to start with a young bird. If anyone knows who might have one for sale or where i can possibly get one without spending my life savings it would be appreciated.

Guest Posted February 20, 2007 Share Posted February 20, 2007 Hi Love4Grays welcome here Don't you have a petshop nearby where you can inquire where the best possible breeder is located for you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

linus Posted February 20, 2007 Share Posted February 20, 2007 Look for an avian rescue place. You may have to drive a little ways, the prices are generally lower and you will be giving a home to a Gray that needs a loving home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dgardikis Posted February 21, 2007 Share Posted February 21, 2007 Hi, I am in Mass, and am looking for a great home for my 12 yr. old african grey Poco. My wife and I bought him when we got married, and he is great. He says unbelievable amounts of words, and makes many different sounds. He uses no foul language, has no health issues, and has no screaming problems. The problem we have is time. We were not told by the pet store what kind of time needed to be spent with him. Now we have children, and he is definetly being neglected. We have discussed this many times, and have realized that this would be best for him. Do you have any experience with African Grey's? Do you have children? Where in Mass are you located? We wouldn't want any money, we just want him to live a wonderful life with someone who can spend quality time with him. Please let me know, and we can arrange a meeting to see if you would be match for Poco, and Poco for you. Thanks, Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Love4Grays Posted February 21, 2007 Author Share Posted February 21, 2007 That would be EXCELLENT. I live in Marlboro with my Fiancie and my 6 month old. I am a stay at home mom so I would deffinately have more then enough time to spend with Poco. I am pretty much available to come meet with you at anytime. Weekends are of course the best because my Fiancie would be able to come with me. Where are you located? If you would like to chat over the phone send me an email at F150chika@yahoo.com and we can go from there. Hope to hear from you soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted February 21, 2007 Share Posted February 21, 2007 Ohhh, this is so nice. What a wonderful coincidence. Two people (and foremost the bird) - are 'helped' - in one strike B) Lovely. I hope it all works out for you guys and please tell us here about it later on :blush: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Love4Grays Posted March 6, 2007 Author Share Posted March 6, 2007 Well I am still looking for a gray. The people who had Poco i guess decided to give him to a family member of theirs so i am still without a gray. anyone who can help please let me know.

DaffyToons Posted March 6, 2007 Share Posted March 6, 2007 Be patient, and be sure to apply with several bird rescue organizations. I just adopted one from a rescue in Ohio. I had to drive all day (vehicle broke down on the Ohio turnpike on my way there), but after 14 hours on the road, Poppy was home safe and sound. And what a joy! He is 10 years old and you can practically have conversations with him. Amazing! Anyway, while you're waiting, take some time to read as much as you can about these wonderful birds. Knowledge is power! Good luck, and keep us posted! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
