Information About African Grey Parrots

Diet:

Our birds are weaned on apples, oranges, grapes, nectarines, carrots, frozen (thawed) mixed vegetables and pasta. We also make a protein mix of peas, feed corn, barley, brown rice, and several types of beans. This mixture is soaked and then cooked until tender but not mushy, and they receive a heaping tablespoon of it daily along with the fruit and vegetables. We also feed a large pellet diet, of Roudy Bush. They seem to enjoy Roudy Bush the best. We treat them to a sprinkling of mixed seed over their food daily using a parrot mix without sunflower seeds. An excess of sunflower seeds is not healthy and can make the bird "hyper". The treat of the day for our birds is a peanut each. They savor them! The more variety in the diet, the healthier your bird will be and more prone to trying new things. Never give your bird chocolate or avocado, they are poisonous and generally fatal!

Characteristics of the Congo African Grey

	light grey to dark grey, with a bright red tail
	Found in West and Central Africa (along the rivers and mangrove swamps)
	generally live 60 to 80 years (human lifespan)
	Sex Differentiation: DNA sexing Greys are often regarded as the best parrot "talkers". They can imitate voices and noises with startling accuracy, and are known for using words "in context" (e.g. When thirsty, a Grey may say, "Glass of water.") They are intelligent and emotionally sensitive, and require physical stimulation (e.g. enough toys so they don't get bored) and plenty of affection and attention.
