sidney Posted February 20, 2009 Posted February 20, 2009 I was enamored the moment I saw him. I am in parrot love! He is SO well behaved, potty trained, tells me he needs to "poo" and just basically shocks me every day!! He talks and talks and talks. I dont understand everything he says, because I am always so surprised that this alien voice has invaded my home! I work 4 hours a day, and am always so anxious to get home and sit with him. I will add more photos when I figure out how to shrink their size.
judygram Posted February 20, 2009 Posted February 20, 2009 Congrats on getting that grey home safe and sound and you are very excited as you should be, please figure the photo thing out soon as I can't wait to see him. If you put your pictures on photobucket you can resize them there before you post them.
sidney Posted February 20, 2009 Author Posted February 20, 2009 I will figure it out! It so amazing, because I was fully prepared to just let him sit and observe our family, get used to noises and voices, etc......NOPE....he surprised us!! He steps up right out of his cage to anyone in the family, already learned my Quakers name "Roxy" , they laugh back and forth....my cat walk in and he says "meow" and the phone rings and he says "hello".....no warming up period here!! He has his little "can" that he sits on to potty, he does not like to go in his cage. I got nutty last night and hung a large boing from the ceiling that he sits on all day. Im gonna figure out the resizing thing now......
judygram Posted February 20, 2009 Posted February 20, 2009 Wow we all should be so lucky to have one that comes in and takes everything in stride without batting an eyelash. He was obviously well socialized and that is great that he is potty trained, you are one lucky grey owner. Pictures please.:whistle:
Luvparrots Posted February 20, 2009 Posted February 20, 2009 Congratulations on bring Sidney home. I can feel the excitement in your words and they just make me smile, your joy just seeps through. Can't wait to see some pictures of Sidney and Roxy!!!
judygram Posted February 20, 2009 Posted February 20, 2009 He is a real cutie and he does just make himself at home doesn't he, nice looking grey you have there, thanks for sharing some pictures of him with us.
PekingeseMama Posted February 20, 2009 Posted February 20, 2009 Your love and enthusiasm for Sidney shows through your post! What an intelligent little love you've found, I wish I could train mine to let me know when she's gonna take a poo! I'd be in parrot heaven, too! Enjoy your little sweetheart!
danmcq Posted February 20, 2009 Posted February 20, 2009 Congratulations Sidney!! Wonderful looking grey you have there and it sounds like he is settling right in. Thanks for posting the photos. :-)
Luvparrots Posted February 21, 2009 Posted February 21, 2009 Sidney is very handsome. Love his boing.
Eckobird Posted February 21, 2009 Posted February 21, 2009 Congrats on getting your grey! He sounds like a character! How old is he? I wish mine was potty trained! lol Where did you get that boing thingy that he is standing on!? Thats pretty cool I want to get one!
judygram Posted February 21, 2009 Posted February 21, 2009 Caitlin, you can get one of those at most any pet store or at any of the online bird sites, no grey should be without one.
sidney Posted February 21, 2009 Author Posted February 21, 2009 Its amazing that he is potty trained!! I was quite shocked at, well, the size of his droppings, much larger than my quaker!! I got that boing from Fosters and Smith. It was quite a bit cheaper than the other stores/catalogs I buy from. You can just keep adding all kinds of stuff to it. He sits way on the top all day, watching over everyone in the house. You should see Roxys cage, its ridiculous...Ill try to ad photo...
Lyric Posted February 21, 2009 Posted February 21, 2009 I'm so excited for you, what a lovely timneh! And, he sounds so well behaved and right at home already...sounds like a great match.
sidney Posted February 22, 2009 Author Posted February 22, 2009 OMG!!! I love him, I love him, I love him!!!!!:cheer:
