African Grey Timneh

[kingkrab29]

I can't put my Timneh in the shower , I have strong water pressure there . I Received my Spray Bottles today , Put them on the Finest Mist I can . I sprayed Him , He's Soaked ,He LOVES it ! He wants More ! I leave the room and He's whistling at me MORE , MORE , MORE ( I think thats what he saying , He also says it for Treats & what I'm eating ) . A little while later after He Dried , I sprayed Him again , He's Nuts , He Loves it . What have I created ? I checked He does Not have webbed feet .

They love showers and sounds like he misses them or maybe never had one? It's good hearing he's adapted so well. Keep trying with different foods.

Yeah I Mist him everyday now unless I forget , and even his feathers look Better ! He still likes them . When I start I show him the bottle and say " Shower " he comes over and I start he might wilk away , But if I quit and start to walk away , He comes Running back over and Wants His Shower ! ( He's on top of the cage ) . I think He's doing much Better , only had him 3 1/2 Months . He now likes to sit on me and get his head petted A Lot . He eats Frozen thawed vegetables , Broccoli , Peas , Carrots , Califlower , and Pellets . He doesn't want Fresh ( Hard ) Vegetables , He throws them away . Banana's He'll take a couple bites then He's done with them . Whatever I'm eating He wants some . He eats Cheese Burgers with me , is that O K ? When I go to the store I'll get sweet potatoes , He Didn't like them Hard , Maybe cooked & Mashed . I've been feeding " Zupreme " , what's your opinion of " Harrisons " ? maybe that's wrong But some food that starts with an " H " , I've heard mentioned on some video's . I think He's Trusting me more , I am building a Toy Latter / Base / & Swing , He watched me making it and got right on it ( Not Scared ) , just looking it all over . Thanks & any advice / suggestions .

The food options sound good except no cheese burgers or any kind of meat & no fried foods. They're prone to heart attacks.

If he likes Zupreems then give him this with the veges in a separate bowl. Harrison's are good too. It depends on what he likes most. I bake sweet potatoes for my guys and they love it. Just make sure it's not too hot when serving them and mashed is fine. Sounds like he's getting well adjusted and trusts you. The toy ladder/base/swing are great!

I have read that they DO eat Meat , like in California / Florida where they have Avaries out side and a bird wrecks into the wire and Dies the other birds Eat Him . And My Eclectus just loved HOT Wings .
