Luvparrots Posted March 2, 2009 Share Posted March 2, 2009 Hi Fisher, I am a new grey owner, so I can only tell you what I have learned. My Ana Grey is a very loving little 6 month old. Some days she is all cuddly and some times she wants to be left alone. I leave her alone. Your baby needs some time to take in her new situation. Just like people our greys need alone time. So relax. Give her some space. Talk to her, offer treats and when she is ready, she will let you know. Congratulations on your new baby, enjoy!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fisher Posted March 2, 2009 Author Share Posted March 2, 2009 thankyou i know its early days but its very worrying hopefuly its just a phase and it will wear off in the next couple of days Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
casper Posted March 2, 2009 Share Posted March 2, 2009 It will take a while for her to get used to her new surroundings and everyone arround her. Just be patient and things will all come together over a little time. She needs to gain your trust, offer treats and talk with her, if she dosent want a cuddle thats fine, she will get familiar with your family and do things in her own time. Congratulations on your new member of the family, I cant wait to hear lots more about your new baby:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fisher Posted March 2, 2009 Author Share Posted March 2, 2009 thanks for the advice we pretty much just left her to sort her self out yesterday we stood talking and offering her food and this morning she allowed me to stroke her so hopefully within a little time she will trust us all i guess giving her plenty of room and time she will be ok and come out of her shell thanks again{Nature-00020095} Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
judygram Posted March 3, 2009 Share Posted March 3, 2009 It does take time to gain their trust so take it slow and easy, don't force yourself on her and it will happen soon enough. Remember small steps, it may not seem like much but a little at a time is the best way to go. As you do things around her tell her what you are doing, talk to her softly and let her get used to you being around, play with some of her toys so she can see you are having fun with them, she will get curious and want to know what you are playing with.
