I think you have posted in the wrong thread if your thinking about getting a grey you should be posting in the congo and timnah grey thread this is thread is for indian ringnecks only

Oh how cute!!!
I've got the chance or this little baby and just wanted to gather a bit of info from those with one! Don't get me wrong I love the birds I have but would do like a nice silly tame one..with work obviously!

All I can tell you Sam is the Friends I have with Ringnecks are adorable They have both had them from Babies and are very friendly.. One of them has quite a good vocabulary as well! She is very cute when she talks as she sounds like a very Young Girl LOL.

I, personally love IRNs.

IRN are great little guys! i dont own one but i heard they arent very cuddle, but there is always the exception. Other than that, they are wonderful pets

They are great... I had a little green female... She did go through a period of a couple of weeks, where she would 'threaten' to bite... That's called bluffing... After that she was a very loving bird...

That's great!! Thanks for the replies!
The lady I 'might' be getting the little one from said she had two that were silly tame and would follow her everywhere!! So I know it will be very tame if I do get it!!
I just wanted to have something I could 'play' with that won't cost a fortune! And with luck will get on with what I already have!
