considering a CAG

[lokiNotis]

Hi all! Its been months since I have been on here but I wanted to come back and get some expert opinions. I currently have a Yellow Nape Amazon, Blue Quaker and a Green Cheek Conure. We would like to add another bird to the family. We are thinking about a Grey. I meet one the other day and fell in love. She was the sweetest thing. (I know when they come home it could be another story.) We are on the fence because we have the other 3 and I don't want them to feel left out or jealous but I know they will. Also this may sound crazy to some people but like our Amazon the Grey will out live us. So I know we will have to leave the birds to someone else. I'm afraid that wouldn't be fair to the next owner or the bird. Maybe that little girl just stole my heart and I shouldn't consider it. . Any opinions would be helpful. Thanks in advance!!!

my bird will probly out live me and I'm still quite young.lol I'm hoping one of my nieces will be able to have her and they are holding her now so she knows them. I posted a similar comment just over a week ago as I couldn't decide whether to get a grey or not and I brought her last weekend and she is so lovely she has settled in wel just starting to get comfortable lol but they do take a lot of attention she doesn't like to be in her cage if she can see me however having said that she is really quite in her cage while I'm out / asleep.

If it's mainly the out living you that you are concerned about, how about adopting an older bird?
