Hi I purchased an African Grey Timneh he is still at the pet store he is not yet weaned. My daughter named him Bobo after my favorite uncle. I have wanted an African Grey for over 20 years, I walked in the pet store not looking for a bird at all and bumped right into Bobo, I believe we have a connection, I visit him practically every day to bond with him. I am becoming comfortable with him now, the owner is very passionate with birds and has taken a lot of time out to teach me how to handle and deal with Bobo, I am so excited I can't wait until he can come home

My little baby timneh, Zayaan, is only 8 weeks young. He is the second bird I have gotten...(I had an iglictus malaaika but unfortunately by the will of god she died at 7 months old). Zayaan is a warm, cuddly, friendly and peaceful little bird. I hope one day he grows to be a strong and independant handsome bird.

I am shella, we have two healthy African Grey parrots available for sale at affordable prices. They are ok with health and have taken all their shots. They both speak and understand English and Greek, also they are now 10 weeks old. We are now in Berlin Germany but we can transport them to your home no matter your location.

I have two congos, Demeter and Persephone, named after the two greek goddeses, though Demeter is a male. They are both 17 years old and I have had them since I was 15 and they were 10 weeks old and weaned. They can say a variety of things and often like to swear at each other in english and japanese (I taught them both) they sing and whistle. They are very fond of the phantom of the opera and have caught them singing along on several occasions. They both cuddle and I'm obtaining a breeding license right now so I can legally breed them in my area. They also seem pretty fond of sweeney, todd, and the wizard of oz. I have them in a huge cage meanI as an outdoor aviary in my living room. They love to snuggle with me though persephone seems too attached to my boyfriend. They aren't particularly noisy however, and they use a litter box and seem to enjoy pre shelled sunflower seeds and take mist bathes three times a week. I love them and i am sure they will outlive me.

I have a grey and her name is Ruffles. She is 1 1/2 years old and not the biggest talker, although she is the best noise recorder. Recently she has started copying the dogs squeaky toy, and she'll start squeaking away and the dogs will start running around the house trying in vain to find their toy. It's so funny the way she copy's the dogs barks too because it's a higher version of it. So if you want a lovable friend and family member I recommend an African Grey, but be warned they can have a temper.

Connie and Mayah's Mom - 2008-07-29
Mayah is our 8-year-old Timneh African Grey parrot. Not only is she beautiful, she's one of the smartest, most affectionate Greys I've ever encountered. Everyone who meets her says, "I feel like that bird can read my mind!" I always tell them the same thing; "Oh, she can!" She loves to kiss, and sometimes gets so enthusiastic about it that friends have thought she was trying to bite them! She used to live at my mom's home with a large Macaw who had actually bitten off one of her toenails one day when she picked the lock off of her cage and had been a stressed-out bird until she moved in with my husband and me. Ever since then she's stopped plucking her legs and chest and has become a completely relaxed and happy girl. Her bald spots have filled in with pink feathers in some spots, which makes a lovely mix of colors with her grey and red (yes, Timnehs have burgundy-red tails!) feathers. We're so fortunate to have such a sweet pair of birds in our home!

Amazing, loveable, so funny, cute, aloof, moody, and a bite that hurts! you can say all of these things about a grey and they are all very true. Ours has been with us for 4 months (although it seems like forever) and she is 8 months old. We can't imagine life without her and she makes me laugh and smile every day. She knows the sound of my car and my hubby's moped and starts whistling for us as soon as she hears them. She is out every night for the whole evening with us, and in good weather we take her cage outside which she really enjoys. Life is never dull with a grey and as long as you have time, patience and masses of love - a grey will fit into your family well. I have to say though the female prefers males line is a myth! Ours is a dna'd girl and I am the only one she is affectionate with. Anyone else can pick her up if she 'crashes' but no one but me can touch her. Think very very carefully before you get a grey, they really are a lifelong full time commitment and if you cannot give that then please think of the grey and don't get one. They are not a toy or a novelty. They are a highly intelligent, very sensitive member of the family.

I have a Congo African Grey called Cleo,
she is 19 weeks old and is absolutely adorable. She and I whistle to each other all the time, especially when my other half is hoovering. The first day we got her she was a bit scared of us and shy. The next morning she woke us up and was amazingly tame, she jumped straight up onto my shoulder and was enjoying a cuddle.
Her new trick is to stand on the top of her cage and to fly onto either my shoulder or my girlfriends.
She is also learning to talk, trying to say a raspy hello like she has a sore throat.
Out of all the many pets I have had she is by far the greatest and most friendly. These are absolutely great animals with varying personalities.
Pure brilliance
