    Great looking bird Jason. I once had a lovebird. I would put a towel on my shoulder and Chi Chi would stay on my shoulder for the entire evening or the entire day on weekends.

    Ya it's the best one I think :)  Really stands out.
    And about the bird poop.  You get used to it.
    I often describe having a bird is like having a 2 year old with attention deficit disorder that will never grow up.

    But he is a lot of fun (when he is not screeming like he is right now)

    WOW a Grey that is an amazing bird. I would love to get one some day, but for right now, with both my wife and I working a lot and it being our first bird we thought it best to get a less challenging bird. Quakers aren't. I would love to see pics. any funny stories.
    Our Quaker is so funny, when you walk by or if your in the other room not paying attention to him he asks "What are you doin" Very funny. He is just turning 1 on the 24th.

    Yes....that it! I couldn't remember who....Karlas....her bird is cute too!
    I took pics today and will try to get them onto the computer tonite for ya...
    Greys are pretty low maintenance as birds go....quiet...unless they are talking "human" I have lost count of all she can say 8) 8) 8)

    Oddly, Quakers are illegal in some states in the US ...my neighboring state "the people's republic of New Jersy" banned ownership of Quakers and/or Monk Keets because they are agricultural pests...
